France

Do you mean the money currency, or the weight ?

the majority of French are white caucasian. People of North-african descent or of Black African origin are some of the most sizable ethnic minorities.

The population of France rose from about 23 million in 1715 to 28

million in 1789. This led to a rapid increase in the demand for

foodgrains. Production of grains could not keep pace with the

demand. So the price of bread which was the staple diet of the majority

rose rapidly. Most workers were employed as labourers in workshops

whose owner fixed their wages. But wages did not keep pace with

the rise in prices. So the gap between the poor and the rich widened.

Things became worse whenever drought or hail reduced the harvest.

This led to a subsistence crisis...

Yes, there are McDonald's restaurants in Paris. McDonald's is all around the world. It's one of the world's most popular fast food restaurants. You're bound to find one somewhere, even where you don't expect to see one.

Montpellier, France is famous for becoming heavily Protestant after the Reformation, while most of the country remained Catholic. It's also known for becoming an industrial center during the 1800s.

There were aluminum and aluminum-bronze types of the same design minted that year. With wear, either is worth about a dollar or less. You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info. Brad

1. King Louis XIV built Palace of Versailles and ended the power of the nobles, but exempted them from taxation. He was known as the "Sun King" because he surrounded himself with lavishness.

2. King Louis XVI was executed during the French Revolution by the guillotine. He helped America gain its independence from Great Britain. He refused to help his people and tried to escape France to receive help from Austria to regain his throne.

3. Queen Marie Antionette, wife of King Louis XVI, was accused of saying "let them eat cake" when the the peasants were begging for bread. She was executed during the Reign of Terror by the guillotine and is most famous for her humilty on her way to her death in which she was no longer the pampered, lavish, "Madame Deficit" that the peasants once despised.

4. Maximillien Robespierre is responsible for the Reign of Terror. He started a secret police that became as the witch trials because they were unfair and quick resulting in the death of the person accused without proper investigation. His death ended the Reign of Terror and he was executed by his own national razor, the guillotine.

5. Jean-Paul Marat was a Jacobin, who felt they were defenders of the revolution and the voice of the people. He claimed that the revolution required more bloodshed in order for France to be as it was in the beginning. He also had to take baths because of a skin disorder and was confined to his house, but was able to publish a newspaper.

6. Charlotte Corday killed Marat with a blunt heel. She was a Girondist, who wanted to protect the middle class from radical attacks. It was her idea that their would be less bloodshed among her people. Sadly,she was wrong and was sentenced to the guillotine.

7. George-Jacques Danton was the first Jacobin to want to end the Reign of Terror. However, Robespierre saw it as treason and had him and his followers executed by the guillotine.

Gustave Eiffel, a French engineer, built the Eiffel tower as a landmark for the 1889 world exhibition.

He also built the internal framework supporting the statue of Liberty in New York.

Raymond Poincare was the President of France in 1914.

oh it is so not that popular

Although France isn't really a prominent ice hockey country, they do play the sport, and have teams like most countries do. Fédération Francaise de Hockey sur Glace, or FFHG, is the ice hockey federation for France. Check it out here: http://www.hockeyfrance.com - Sorry its in French and I have not yet found a way to translate it to English.

So, overall, Ice hockey isn't too popular in France, but it is played there! :)

The president of France. Currently, in May 2014, it is François Hollande.

There is only one kind of "stop" sign on French roads. As in many countries, the word "stop" is written in white letters in a red octogon. You will find a wide, white paint band on the road marking the place you have to stop.

A approaching sign is the "cédez le passage" (yield / give way); the sign is a inverted white triangle with a red border.

It's amazing because it is. France is a beautiful country that influences countries as far as Canada (french is their second language) and is home to some of the most popualr dishes and foods in the world. France also has Paris. You know, the Eiffel tower? Everbody knows what that is.

The Eiffel tower is taller than the statue of Liberty. It is three and a half times as big as Liberty, pedestal included, or six times as big as the statue itself.
The Eiffel tower is 1,063 ft (324 m) tall, whereas the statue is 305 ft or 93 m (pedestal included) or 151 ft (46 meters) for the statue proper (still huge for a statue).

A common point is that Gustave Eiffel designed and built the Statue of Liberty's internal frame.

Narbonensis, Lugdunensis, Aquitania, Belgica, and part of Germania Superior. That makes five Roman provinces where is now modern France.

Another way of naming the provinces is to separate them between 'Gaule Narbonnaise' (Provincia Narbonensis) and 'Gaule transalpine' (the rest of the provinces, most of which were conquered by the Romans under Julius Caesar)

== == == == in the literature, the results of numerous studies were used to propose predictive tools for the evaluation of fragmentation efficiency in rock mass blasting. The methodology developed during several years at the Centre de Géologie de l'Ingénieur is based on the comparison of rock mass and corresponding muck piles block size distributions [1-4]. This paper introduces a new approach of the evaluation of the part of blasting energy used in fragmentation, based on the assessment of the energy devoted to the formation of crack surface. The fundamental assumptions of this method will be exposed and discussed in detail. The method is then applied to blasts performed in two Spanish mines in different geological contexts. The corresponding results are presented and the influence of some blast parameters (such as geological rock mass structure, specific energy and time delays) is discussed.

patois is just a general term for any nonstandard use of language. It can refer to Pidgins, Creoles, or dialects.

A creole is a language created from two completely different languages.

You mean apart from being the Queen?

Rome is a city in the country of Italy, not a country of itself. Rome is also a lot smaller than France, which is a country.

The France in 18th century was divided into 3 estates.clergy,s belong to first estate.

The Eiffel Tower is the tallest tower in France.

No, they are too poor and primitive. After all, France is a country only recently hacked out of the jungle. It wasn't even discovered until about 500 years ago, and not developed for 200 years after that ... Oh, no, sorry, that's America. France was around long before that.

Of course they have ice cream in France.
