Gaul was divided into three parts. No, four parts - for one small village of indomitable Gauls still held out against the Roman invaders!

On being demobilised from the Roman army Legionary Tremensdelirius gets the title deeds to the little Gaulish village. Soon, however, he swaps them for a drink in a tavern and the landlord Orthopaedix, his wife Angina and their daughter Influenza set off to claim their rights.

Strange to say, Asterix and his friends don't see it quite the same way...
