What region of Africa has close historical and cultural ties to Europe?
Northern Africa has a close historical and somewhat cultural tie to Europe. The Greeks and Romans established empires that conquered parts, if not all, of Northern Africa. The Europeans then took complete control of Northern Africa during the age of imperialism. The French, British, and Italian controlled the African Mediterranean lands. This explains why French, English, and Italian are still spoken today in Northern Africa, either as a recreational language or governmental or business language. Morocco, a North African country, even considers themselves to be a Europeanized country and someday wishes to join the European Union, as they have already previously tried doing so.

What is the rank of IFP schoolFrance in the petroleum engineering in the world and Europe?
IFP is a very reputed institute but the rankings for Petroleum Engineering courses have not been done in an exhaustive way I would say.

What I would say is, in Europe, IFP is certainly among the top 5, and similarly, I can say that worldwide, it should be among top 15 (Taking into consideration the placement scenario, publication and R&D projects done by various institutes)
