County of Brant, Rural municipality in Southern Ontario, Canada
The County of Brant encompasses 843 square kilometers of land featuring agricultural fields, small towns, and two major rivers intersecting at Paris.
Established in 1851, the territory received its name from Joseph Brant, a Mohawk leader who negotiated land treaties after the American Revolution.
The County maintains over 250 acres of public parks and 70 kilometers of trails, connecting communities through natural recreational spaces.
Municipal services operate from multiple locations including Paris, Burford, and St. George, serving a population of approximately 40,000 residents.
The region contains significant gypsum deposits, first discovered in 1793, which influenced early industrial development and settlement patterns.
