 France is a country located in the western region of Europe and

has a population of about 64.86 million people. In addition,
France has a number of territories and regions around the world,
with a total population of 2.13 million. French has been the
official language of France since 1992, but has been the official
language of the country for legal documents and laws since 1539.
 The French language evolved from vulgar Latin, which was used
during the Roman Empire. This language is believed to have
appeared in the northern region of present-day France and
gradually evolved into Old French and Middle French,
respectively. Today, modern French is considered part of the
Indo-European language family and belongs to the Romanian
language subgroup.

is a monument of early Gothic
architecture in France, the seat
of the Archdiocese of Paris. The
cathedral is located on the Île de

 Ne me quitte pas”
French Music de Jacques Brel
 At the top of the list was a
revolutionary love song
about France at a time when
men were not allowed to cry
for women they no longer
wanted. Confronted with
this man who first brought
out such a masculine
sensibility, many people
revolted against her. In
particular, Edith Piaf, who
considered the song parallel
to a complete lack of virility.
In any case, it remains the
best-selling piece of the
Hymne à l’amour de
Edith Piaf

 Edith Piaf wrote this song

for the man she loved.
During her New York tour
in 1948, love was born.
The idyllic romance ended
in 1949 when Marcel
Cerdan died in a plane
crash. After this tragedy,
Edith Piaf wrote a song that
quickly became one of her
biggest hits: the love
anthem.
