France Overview
France is a one of the largest European countries. It is situated in Western Europe, but also has several territories and islands on other continents and in the Pacific, Atlantic and the Indian oceans. The country's official name is the French Republic. Because of the
geometric shape of its territory, France is sometimes referred to as "The Hexagon" . The country borders to Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Italy, Monaco, Luxembourg, and Andorra. France is also connected to the United Kingdom by the Channel Tunnel that passes underneath the la Manche ("the sleeve", popular also as the English Channel). To the south-east, France has a coast on the Mediterranean Sea. To the west and to the north, France borders to extensions of the Atlantic Ocean. The capital and largest city of France is Paris; other notable cities include Marseille, Lyon, Nice, Strasbourg and Nantes. |
