The typical speed limits in France are:

50 km in any town and village(from the sign at the entrance, to the sign marking the exit); this may be lowered in specific areas (next to schools, or in sectors where there are many pedestrians) to 30 km/h - or any speed that is judged best by the local council. When it is not stated otherwise, the speed limit is always 50 km/h and the fact you passed the entrance signpost is enough for the driver to know it.

90 km/h on regular roads, out of towns; the speed limit is not usually signposted.

110 km/h on expressways (typically dual carriageways - they are toll-free; the speed limit is always signposted);

130 km/h on highways. (some are free, some have tolls; the speed limit is always signposted).

In foggy conditions the speed must be reduced to 50km/h on any road including highways if the visibility is under 50 metres.

When it is raining the higher speed limits are reduced: 90>80kmh, 110>100kmh, 130>110kmh.
