The department has 140,000 hectares of forests.<ref>[http://www.aube.pref.gouv.fr/articles/menu-principal/vivre-dans-l-aube/geographie-h178.html Geographical Presentation of the Aube department] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130705195236/http://www.aube.pref.gouv.fr/articles/menu-principal/vivre-dans-l-aube/geographie-h178.html |date=5 July 2013 }}, Aube prefecture website, consulted on 22 September 2010 {{in lang|fr}}</ref>

Located in the Community of communes of Forests, lakes, and lands in Champagne, the [[Orient Forest Regional Natural Park]] was one of the first [[Regional natural parks of France|natural parks]] created in France.

In the same place, there is the Orient Lake and the [[Lakes Amance and du Temple|Amance and Temple lakes]] where [[fishing]], recreational water sports, and bathing are available. Each lake specialises in one or more of these activities.

The climate is moderate without intense cold or excessive heat which represents a climate similar to [[Continental climate|continental]] and [[Oceanic climate|oceanic]].

Between 1950 and 1985 the average annual temperature recorded in the department was 10.1&nbsp;°C<ref name=Meteo>Readings from the [[Météo-France]] station at [[Barberey-Saint-Sulpice]]</ref> which is equivalent to the Paris basin and the cities of north-eastern France. The average sunshine hours per year is 1771.

Average annual rainfall is quite high (653.4&nbsp;mm over 115 days of rain<ref name=Meteo />). In general there is more rain in autumn than in winter but rainfall is highest during spring.

== History ==

=== Early history ===
The first inhabitants of Aube were the [[Tricasses]] and [[Lingones]] with a substantial human settlement around the year 400 BC.

[[Savinian and Potentian|Saints Potentian and Savinian]],<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://gatinais.monsite.wanadoo.fr/page3.html|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080208102739/http://gatinais.monsite.wanadoo.fr/page3.html|url-status=dead|title=Saint-Potentien and Saint-Savinien, first preachers of the Gospel in Gaul|archivedate=8 February 2008}}</ref> Greek priests from [[Samos]], came to preach the [[gospel]] from the middle of the 3rd century. [[Patroclus of Troyes|Saint Patroclus]] was one of the first martyrs of the new faith in the year 259. Shortly after ''Saint Jule'' and some notables of the city of [[Tricasses]] also suffered martyrdom. Nevertheless, as elsewhere, the Christian community became large enough to accommodate a [[bishop]]. ''Saint Amateur'' was the first in 340. In the year 286 the [[Bagaudae]] ravaged the land which forms Aube. [[Emperor Julian]] came to [[Troyes]] with his army and rescued it.

The territory making up Aube was first attached to France in 843, following the [[Treaty of Verdun]].

=== The 12th century and the monasteries ===
[[File:Kloster von Clairvaux, heute Strafanstalt.jpg|thumb|The Abbey of Clairvaux: today a prison]]

Two important monasteries were founded in the department: one at [[Clairvaux Abbey|Clairvaux]] in 1114, created by [[Bernard of Clairvaux]], the other was the [[Abbey of the Paraclete]] near Nogent-sur-Seine, by his illustrious rival, [[Pierre Abélard]] and of which [[Héloïse d'Argenteuil]] was the first [[abbess]]. Bernard of Clairvaux was noted for his eloquence at the [[Council of Troyes 1129|Council of Troyes]] and his preaching of the [[Second Crusade]] which had no result and whose outcome was disastrous.

The reunion of [[Champagne (province)|Champagne]] with the kingdom of France was finalised in 1361. Yet people wanted absolutely the incorporation of Champagne but in 1328 [[Philip VI of France|King Philip VI]] gave the city of [[Bar-sur-Seine]] to Philippe de Croy. The inhabitants, however, ransomed him to return it to the king on the condition that it become inalienable.

=== Definitive reunion with Kingdom of France ===
The decree of the [[National Assembly (French Revolution)|National Assembly]] of 15 January 1790 formally established the department of Aube. Its first president was Augustin-Henri-Marie Picot<ref name=Peers>[https://books.google.com/books?id=I0sWAAAAYAAJ ''Genealogical and Heraldic History of the peers of France''], Volume 8, Jean Baptiste Pierre Jullien de Courcelles, 1827 {{in lang|fr}}</ref> and his first deputy was Louis Antoine Joseph Robin. [[Jacques Claude Beugnot]] was elected attorney-general and also MP.<ref name=Peers />

After the victory of the allies in the [[battle of Waterloo]] on 18 June 1815, the department was occupied by Russian troops from June 1815 to November 1818.

In 1911, following the revolt of the [[vineyards]] of [[Champagne (wine region)|Champagne]], large [[Champagne Riots|riots]] broke out in the department.

In 1919, a decree allowed Aube department to produce [[champagne]] for the first time.<ref>[http://arkantz.canalblog.com/archives/regions___tourisme/index.html ''Regions-Tourism-Arkantz''], 2007, consulted on 19 September 2010 {{in lang|fr}}</ref>

In 1932, Turkish president [[Mustafa Kemal Atatürk]] visited Aube and signed a friendship treaty with France there on 4 July 1938.<ref>[http://www.atam.gov.tr/index.php?Page=DergiIcerik&IcerikNo=864 Foreign Policy Of Atatürk]</ref>

== Politics and administration ==

=== Departmental council ===
The [[Departmental Council of Aube|departmental council of Aube]] is located in [[Troyes]]. Its president is Philippe Pichery ([[Miscellaneous right]]). It includes the 34 councillors of the 17 cantons of Aube. Of these, 32 are from the [[Right-wing politics|Right]] (mainly the [[Union for a Popular Movement|UMP]]), the others are from the [[Miscellaneous left]].

Aube returns three Deputies to the [[National Assembly of France|National Assembly]], two of whom are from [[The Republicans (France)|The Republicans]] (LR), and two Senators: one UMP and one right-wing independent.

== Economy ==

=== General ===
The economy of Aube has focused on the textile industry since the 19th century. This sector is now in crisis due to the department being in an area of real economic change.

In 2017, the departmental workforce totalled 137,774 with 114,530 persons in employment and 23,244 people unemployed. Men accounted for 51.4% of the active population and women 48.6%.<ref name=complet/>

The Aube department has a high rate of feminization in employment. Nearly half of people with active jobs (48.1% in 2017) are women. The main areas affected by the feminization are trade, transport, textiles, utilities, education, and health. Women are slightly more affected than men by unemployment (51.3% of the unemployed in 2017). This is mainly due to layoffs in the textile sector.
