Both France and Spain are Latin countries. Spain has a more Mediterranean culture, which was until recently heavily influenced by Catholicism. France is home of literature masters, and of the philosophers of the age of enlightenment. That era influenced America's founding fathers and French revolutionaries. Europe monarchies were deeply shaken by the French Revolution which spread democracy ideals throughout Europe. And finally, both France and Spain had large colonies, where their languages took hold.
