France
France (French: [fʁɑ̃s]), officially the French Republic (French: République française [ʁepyblik fʁɑ̃sɛz]), is a sovereign state comprising territory in western Europe and several overseas regions and territories. The European part of France, called metropolitan France, extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. France spans 643,801 square kilometres (248,573 sq mi) and has a total population of 66.6 million. It is a unitary semi-presidential republic with the capital in Paris, the country's largest city and main cultural and commercial centre. The Constitution of France establishes the state as secular and democratic, with its sovereignty derived from the people.
During the Iron Age, what is now Metropolitan France was inhabited by the Gauls, a Celtic people. The Gauls were conquered in 51 BC by the Roman Empire, which held Gaul until 486. The Gallo-Romans faced raids and migration from the Germanic Franks, who dominated the region for hundreds of years, eventually creating the medieval Kingdom of France. France emerged as a major European power in the Late Middle Ages, with its victory in the Hundred Years' War (1337 to 1453) strengthening French state-building and paving the way for a future centralized absolute monarchy. During the Renaissance, France experienced a vast cultural development and established the beginning of a global colonial empire. The 16th century was dominated by religious civil wars between Catholics and Protestants (Huguenots).

France Ô
France Ô (pronounced: [fʁɑ̃s o]) is a French public television network featuring programming from the French overseas departments and collectivities in Metropolitan France. It is part of the France Télévisions group. Its overseas counterpart is Outre-Mer 1ère.
It is available through cable, satellite, ADSL and the new digital terrestrial television system.
Formerly known as RFO Sat, the channel was originally broadcasting 9 hours per day only. It was re-branded France Ô in 2004 in order to better show it was part of the France Télévisions group. The "O" stands for Outre-mer (overseas), and the accent shows that the channel was opened to all accents and dialects of the world, but also ensures that the name of the channel is not read as France 0 ("France zéro").
The channel became available in overseas territories in November 2010, replacing the RFO-operated Tempo.

French wine
French wine is produced all throughout France, in quantities between 50 and 60 million hectolitres per year, or 7–8 billion bottles. France is one of the largest wine producers in the world. French wine traces its history to the 6th century BC, with many of France's regions dating their wine-making history to Roman times. The wines produced range from expensive high-end wines sold internationally to more modest wines usually only seen within France as the Margnat wines were during the post war period.
Two concepts central to higher end French wines are the notion of "terroir", which links the style of the wines to the specific locations where the grapes are grown and the wine is made, and the Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) system. Appellation rules closely define which grape varieties and winemaking practices are approved for classification in each of France's several hundred geographically defined appellations, which can cover entire regions, individual villages or even specific vineyards.

Europe’s $45BN Largest Infrastructure Project Taking Shape In France!
Europe’s Largest Infrastructure Project Taking Shape In France! Paris, much like other major global cities, confronts escalating challenges in traffic management. The Paris Metro Railway system, established in the early 1900s, serves millions of passengers daily but is currently strained due to the surge in demand. Paris serves as the nucleus of a much larger expanse known as the Paris region or Île-de-France, spanning 12,000 square kilometres and hosting an additional 10.2 million residents. the broader Paris region relies heavily on cars, rendering the subway system nearly impractical for around 6 million residents. To address these transportation challenges, authorities have initiated a billion-dollar mega-project known as the Grand Paris Express, marking one of Europe’s most extensive...

If you've read anything about urban planning online recently, you've probably heard about the changes happening Paris. Mayor Anne Hidalgos has become famous for her pro-cycling and pro-people policies, and for taking away space from automobiles. With a goal of becoming "100% Cyclable" by 2026, Paris is changing quickly.
For this video I took an NJB "Business Trip" to Paris to see these changes for myself.

France and Italy are constructing a €26BN railway across the Alps, uniting the cities of Lyon and Turin. The project, which will span 270 kilometers across the Alps, will replace the current railway across the mountains, which was completed in 1871. With a shallower gradient, wider curves and modern infrastructure, it will allow for high-speed travel, with passenger trains traveling at 220 kph. It will also include the world’s longest railway tunnel, the Mont d’Ambin Base Tunnel. The project will cost €26BN, €8.6 billion of which is for the Mont d’Ambin base, which will be covered 40% by the European Union. Once finished, it will slash travel times between France and Italy, boost economic growth and divert millions of tons of freight traffic away from trucks, positively impacting the environment. Construction is currently underway and the project is planned to open in 2032.

Europe’s Largest Infrastructure Project Taking Shape In France!
Paris, much like other major global cities, confronts escalating challenges in traffic management. The Paris Metro Railway system, established in the early 1900s, serves millions of passengers daily but is currently strained due to the surge in demand. Paris serves as the nucleus of a much larger expanse known as the Paris region or Île-de-France, spanning 12,000 square kilometres and hosting an additional 10.2 million residents. the broader Paris region relies heavily on cars, rendering the subway system nearly impractical for around 6 million residents. To address these transportation challenges, authorities have initiated a billion-dollar mega-project known as the Grand Paris Express, marking one of Europe’s most extensive ongoing transport endeavours. This ambitious initiative aims to double the length of the existing subway network, introducing a new 200km system with four additional lines and 68 new stations.

Paris has just months before hosting the 2024 Olympic Games, where athletes are set to dive head first into the Seine River. The body of water runs through the heart of the French capital and is a hub for pollution and fecal bacteria, released directly from the city’s sewer system. So how do French politicians plan to clean-up the river before the summer Olympics?

All across Paris, streets that used to be choked with traffic and pollution have been converted to bike paths and protected lanes.
Riverside highways have been converted to cafes, playgrounds, and even beaches.
Streets that used to be filled with parked cars are now full of trees and bike parking.
So what’s going on in Paris and what can cities around the world learn from this massive project?

France's problems arguably go back 200 years to their slow and steady approach to adopting industrialisation. While many other countries can learn from France's strong protection for workers' rights, at the moment this has made France a very uncompetitive country with some of the worst brain drain across the EU. Why work in France for lower wages when they can make so much more in the UK, Germany and the US. Is France stuck at just being the place with fancy handbags and perfumes, or can it change it's economy to stay internationally competitive?

If you've read anything about urban planning online recently, you've probably heard about the changes happening Paris. Mayor Anne Hidalgos has become famous for her pro-cycling and pro-people policies, and for taking away space from automobiles. With a goal of becoming "100% Cyclable" by 2026, Paris is changing quickly.
For this video I took an NJB "Business Trip" to Paris to see these changes for myself.

France and Italy are constructing a €26BN railway across the Alps, uniting the cities of Lyon and Turin. The project, which will span 270 kilometers across the Alps, will replace the current railway across the mountains, which was completed in 1871. With a shallower gradient, wider curves and modern infrastructure, it will allow for high-speed travel, with passenger trains traveling at 220 kph. It will also include the world’s longest railway tunnel, the Mont d’Ambin Base Tunnel. The project will cost €26BN, €8.6 billion of which is for the Mont d’Ambin base, which will be covered 40% by the European Union. Once finished, it will slash travel times between France and Italy, boost economic growth and divert millions of tons of freight traffic away from trucks, positively impacting the environment. Construction is currently underway and the project is planned to open in 2032.

Europe’s Largest Infrastructure Project Taking Shape In France!
Paris, much like other major global cities, confronts escalating challenges in traffic management. The Paris Metro Railway system, established in the early 1900s, serves millions of passengers daily but is currently strained due to the surge in demand. Paris serves as the nucleus of a much larger expanse known as the Paris region or Île-de-France, spanning 12,000 square kilometres and hosting an additional 10.2 million residents. the broader Paris region relies heavily on cars, rendering the subway system nearly impractical for around 6 million residents. To address these transportation challenges, authorities have initiated a billion-dollar mega-project known as the Grand Paris Express, marking one of Europe’s most extensive ongoing transport endeavours. This ambitious initiative aims to double the length of the existing subway network, introducing a new 200km system with four additional lines and 68 new stations.

Paris has just months before hosting the 2024 Olympic Games, where athletes are set to dive head first into the Seine River. The body of water runs through the heart of the French capital and is a hub for pollution and fecal bacteria, released directly from the city’s sewer system. So how do French politicians plan to clean-up the river before the summer Olympics?
WSJ went inside the project to understand if this $1.5 billion plan can really sanitize the Parisian waterway.

France
France (French: [fʁɑ̃s]), officially the French Republic (French: République française [ʁepyblik fʁɑ̃sɛz]), is a sovereign state comprising territory in western Europe and several overseas regions and territories. The European part of France, called metropolitan France, extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. France spans 643,801 square kilometres (248,573 sq mi) and has a total population of 66.6 million. It is a unitary semi-presidential republic with the capital in Paris, the country's largest city and main cultural and commercial centre. The Constitution of France establishes the state as secular and democratic, with its sovereignty derived from the people.
During the Iron Age, what is now Metropolitan France was inhabited by the Gauls, a Celtic people. The Gauls were conquered in 51 BC by the Roman Empire, which held Gaul until 486. The Gallo-Romans faced raids and migration from the Germanic Franks, who dominated the region for hundreds of years, eventually creating the medieval Kingdom of France. France emerged as a major European power in the Late Middle Ages, with its victory in the Hundred Years' War (1337 to 1453) strengthening French state-building and paving the way for a future centralized absolute monarchy. During the Renaissance, France experienced a vast cultural development and established the beginning of a global colonial empire. The 16th century was dominated by religious civil wars between Catholics and Protestants (Huguenots).
