Looking for pen-pal / key-pal from France
Hi, this is Peggy from China. I went to France last Sep. on a business trip and definitely fell in love with this brilliant country. I’m not sure what kind of people could be called "Francophile", but I guess I’m getting closer and closer to it. As a matter of fact, I’m now teaching myself French, in a very slow progress though. I hope learning French language could help me get deeper into its culture in which I’m very interested. And, I would really like to make friends and correspond with French people who would exchange letters or emails with me in English (hopefully French in the foreseeable future after my French is sufficient enough), and help me know more about France.
Male Pen Pal Needed!
Hello my name is Ashley. I am 17 years old, I am the lead singer in a band, I listen all types of music, and I want to own my own French restaurant when I’m older. I am currently taking my second year of French.
Regions and Departments
The départements (or departments) are administrative units of France, roughly analogous to British counties and now grouped into 22 metropolitan and four overseas régions. They are subdivided into 342 arrondissements.
Administrative role
Each département is administered by a Conseil Général elected for six years, and by a préfet appointed by the French government and assisted by one or more sous-préfets based in district centres outside the departmental capital. An administrative reform in 1982 transferred some of the préfet’s powers to the president of the Conseil Général.
The Politics of France
The Constitution
A popular referendum approved the constitution of the Fifth Republic in 1958, greatly strengthening the authority of the presidency and the executive in relation to Parliament.
The executive branch
France has an original system with an executive headed by two officials: the President and the Prime Minister.
