Definitely not Vendée...and quite insulting for the locals. Start by learning about the place and its history...
Vendée starts on the other side of the Loire (i.e South)

Loire-Atlantique is not "vendée"
Im very sad to see our department, part of historical brittany, in "vendée".
as a matter of fact "Loire-Atlantique" (44) is not Vendée (85)

Ayrshire in scotland is not in northumberland (england)!
