women throughout France. Compared to other nations, the role and rights of women in France were confronted earlier and Women’s suffrage was enacted earlier.

Young, Muslim and French The documentary Young, Muslim and French highlights events that happened in France beginning in September 2004. The documentary takes us through the decision of France banning the traditional headscarves for the Muslims in public schools. The law is taken as an “Islamophobia” form of an expression.

immigrants is in France, with around 7.4 million foreign-born people living there in 2010. Despite this large number, the French culture is one of the most nationalistic in the world, which can sometimes come off as hostile to newcomers. The history and development of French immigration policies is full of stubbornness and errors. Even now, the country’s unwillingness to allow new cultures to flourish in their home is becoming a large issue for the masses of immigrants that reside in France. The immigration
Throughout history religion-state issues have always occurred. In France religion does influence law making and politics. This is evident in the banning of the burqa, which is contradictory as France claims to be a secular state. The French government believes the ban reinforces their stance of secularism, and that banning the full face veil will remove a perceived social barrier between the Muslims and general society. The Muslims believe it is actually removing them from the social sphere and an
Napoleon, brought up his country, France, from its most tormented status, to the very pinnacle of its height in just a few years time. He was a military hero who won splendid land-based battles, which allowed him to dominate most of the European continent. He was a man with ambition, great self-control and calculation, a great strategist, a genius; whatever it was, he was simply the best. But, even though how great this person was, something about how he governed France still floats among people's minds

Richelieu has been seen by different historians in two ways; one being a ruthless despot who would do whatever he possibly could to achieve his goals, and the other being of a brilliant politician who transformed France into one of the greatest and most powerful nations and monarchies in the world.

Napoleon was forced to retreat from his empire back into France. The nations that were once under Napoleon's rule had bowed out of the French Empire, and began revolting against Napoleon and his men. The Allied Countries turned on the French Empire, and acquired Napoleon's unconditional surrender. Napoleon's surrender
a hero as his heroic nature provided France with the institutions and sense of national identity they needed. Others would argue Napoleon is not a hero, as his use of propaganda made the French public believe he was their savior. I believe Napoleon Bonaparte was a hero, as his many accomplishments modified the French society and ultimately the civilized world. Not only did he better France through his domestic policy, he also expanded the territory of France with many battles won through strategic

History of print media in France Print media has by far the longest history among the media still operational in modern-day France. The first weekly periodical, La Gazette, was published in 1631, while the first national daily newspaper, Le Journal de Paris, started in 1777. As was the case right across Europe, readership of French newspapers in the eighteenth and for much of the nineteenth centuries was limited to elite sections of society (Sassoon, 2006: 194–9). Regardless of some short-lived flare-ups
Martinique is a Caribbean island, which also happens to be a department of France. Due to the different people that are living there, and their cultural and social backgrounds, it makes Martinique a very unique place to live. Much of Martinique’s social policy and culture is influenced by France and their structures, mainly because unlike many other European colonizers, France never gave up or lost its hold on Martinique (Revauger). What are unique to Martinique as their own island, however, are
