The '''County of Mortain''' was a medieval county in France centered on the town of [[Mortain]]. A choice landholding, usually either kept within the family of the [[duke of Normandy]] (or the [[king of France]]) or granted to a noble in return for service and favor. This was the main reason Mortain had so many counts, as shown below, during its long history.
