Good morning today I’m going to talk about France

Most people associate French culture with Paris, which is a center of fashion,
cuisine cuisin, art and architecture, arquitectur but life outside of the City of Lights
is very different you can find many places and a lot of thing to do.

I´m going to star with the main information:

 The France’s Capital is Paris.


 In France The weather is generally cool winters and mild summers, but
mild winters and hot summers along
 Population in French is 65+flas million
 The Flag of French has 3 colors and each color represent something
about the country as importan as the culture
The white color represents the king
The red and blue color represents the Paris city
Though the three colors France’s flag symbolize simbilais the values valius
as of the French revolution (tales como)
freedom, fridoom equality, brotherhood and democracy

The currency in France is represent in Euro (€)


There are Bills of 500/200/100/50/20/10/5 hundred and Coins of 2€/1€/50
cents/20c/10c/5c/2c/1c.

About the religion in France you can find different religious beliefs and everyone
is free to choose their beliefs Catholic as protestant, Jewish and Maslam

 there are Roman Catholic with an 83%-88%,


 Protestant 2%, Jewish
 Maslam 5%-10%,

The languages in France


In France the official language is French, this is the first language the 88% of the
population. Though you can find other languages like Breton, Catalan, Flemish
and Arabic not as comun as the French and they are spoken by a tiny minority of
the French population.

Actually, French people, particularly as large cities as Paris or Marsella, speak


English well and enjoy doing so. But, on the whole, French people dislike being
addressed in English by foreigners without first being asked whether they speak
English.

En realidad, muchos franceses, particularmente en grandes ciudades como París, hablan


bien inglés y disfrutan hacerlo. Pero, en general, a los franceses no les gusta que los
extranjeros se dirijan en inglés sin que se les pregunte primero si hablan inglés.
Now I’m going to talk About the Sport in France
Sports are an essential part of the French lifestyle. Though the French to be in a
perpetual state of wine-drinking and baguette-eating, the more interesting truth is
that French people are very active.

the country. When it comes to local teams, the rivalries and rifts run deep, and are
taken extremely seriously.
