File:Comarca Conflent.png

Conflent ({{#invoke:IPA|main}}; {{#invoke:IPA|main}}) is a historical Catalan comarca of Northern Catalonia, now part of the French department of Pyrénées-Orientales. In the Middle Ages it comprised the County of Conflent.

The capital of this pays is Prades (Template:Langx), and it borders the pays of Capcir, Rosselló, Vallespir, Alta Cerdanya and Ripollès, and the Occitan-speaking pays of Fenolleda. It roughly corresponds to the valley of the Têt River (Template:Langx) and its neighbourhoods between Rodès and Mont-Louis (Template:Langx). Conflent is dominated by the Canigou (Template:Langx) mountain.
