The French Republic was born in 1793, fruit of a long and tormented political history. France is a constitutional republic with a semi presidential regimen, and it has around 67 million people. The French national statement is “to govern the nation, by the nation and for the nation”, which fits well with our motto: “liberté, égalité, fraternité”. The capital is Paris, and the official language is French. Paris and the French Riviera are both high touristic places.
