<div id="ygrps-yiv-1374296367">In France, there are some municipalities that don&#39;t have a single <br/>
inhabitant! These are some villages that were devastated in WW 1, <br/>
with no inhabitants left, but the municipalities were never <br/>
abolished! What this means in practice, I don&#39;t know.<br/>

Cf.:<br/>
<br/>
Communes sans habitants : six des sept communes de France ne comptant <br/>
aucun habitant se trouve dans le périmètre historique du champ de <br/>
bataille de Verdun : Beaumont-en-Verdunois, Bezonveux, Haumont-près-<br/>
Samogneux, Louvement-Côte-du-Poivre, Cumières-le-Mort-Homme et Fleury-<br/>
devant-Douaumont.<br/>
