History

By a decree of 19 September 1972, the two communes of Dreuil-lès-Molliens and Molliens-Vidame were combined into one, Molliens-Dreuil.
Molliens was first a commune in 1209 and was under the jurisdiction of the seigneurs of Picquigny from the twelfth century right up until the French Revolution, as was the neighbouring village of Dreuil.

gollark: Well, it reads the metadata, reads each chapter, and dumps them into a SQLite FTS table.
gollark: Not really. I mean, sort of yes, but at that point it would be very slow. My indexer thing will index stuff *once* then search using that.
gollark: `ripgrep` is also performant, however I need to search compressed archives.
gollark: This is to utilize Rust and SQLite3.
