STUDY IN FRANCE
ABOUT FRANCE:
France is the 6th largest economy and the largest European country in terms of land area after Russia and Ukraine.
Nearly 20% of the territory of France lies outside Europe. These regions are known as “DOM-TOM” (overseas departments and territories), where over 2.5 million French citizens live. The Canal du Midi is Europe’s oldest functional canal. It was built from 1666 and 1681. It is 240 km (150 miles) long, has 63 locks, 126 bridges, 55 aqueducts, 7 canal-bridges, 6 barrages and 1 tunnel.
The 45th parallel north, which marks the theoretical halfway point between the Equator and the North Pole, is said to be the limit between Northern France, where the Oïl dialects are spoken, and Southern France, where the Occitan dialects prevail. It is also the boundary between the butter and olive oil cuisines. In a wider European context, the 45th parallel roughly marks the division between northern and southern Europe, a division that may date back to the Neolithic.
