	Legal Systems of the World: France (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		France is a strategically located western European nation of 59 million people occupying nearly 213,000 square miles (552,000 square kilometers) and extending more than 600 miles from the northern frontier to Spain on the south, and approximately the same distance east and west from the Brittany peninsula on the Atlantic Ocean to the Rhine.
		France’s initial reluctance to cede authority to a European human-rights tribunal was matched by its reluctance to recognize the full authority of the European Union court in economic affairs.
		Nevertheless, France is clearly moving toward a system of law that incorporates reciprocal checks and balances and a form of judicial review, and courts have been ingenious in adapting to current circumstances in spite of the mandate that they make no law.

	Prime Minister of France - Free net encyclopedia
		When the President and the majority of the Assembly have opposite political leanings, this yields a situation known as cohabitation, where the executive is headed by a president and a prime minister of different opinion.
		In the Fifth Republic the chief political figure in France is the President of the Republic with the Prime Minister having secondary importance.
		When the President and the Prime Minister are of the same party, the Prime Minister often plays the role of a "fuse": that is, citizens lay the blame of the failures of governmental policy on him or her, and when the Prime Minister is unpopular, he or she resigns in order to protect the President.

	Cults in France

	Battered Chirac defends France on all fronts - Europe - International Herald Tribune
		PARIS President Jacques Chirac, upping the stakes in Paris's verbal jousting match with London, said Thursday that the French were better than the British in many domains: They have more children, they spend more on research and they live longer.
		When the two French interviewers pointed out that Britain's economic growth was faster than France's, and its jobless toll half that of France, the president promptly reeled off a list of statistics that appeared to have been prepared for this purpose.
		In France, he added, only 7 percent of children lived below the poverty line, compared with 17 percent in Britain, and 2.2 percent of gross domestic product is spent on scientific research, more than the 1.8 percent used for this purpose in Britain.

	Art & Architecture of France - Introduction
		Particularly in Paris —; where an abundance of venues is concentrated within a few square miles — it is common to find the French devoting their weekends to exploring the wealth of museums and cultural havens; many of the provincial areas are likewise blessed with impressive monuments to art and architecture.
		Though relatively few artifacts remain from earlier eras, art in ancient Gaul may be traced back through the Merovingian period (beginning in the late fifth century), to the Roman Empire (starting in the first century B.C.), the ancient Celts (fifth century B.C.), and even to the Cro-Magnons of Paleolithic times (10,000 to 32,000 years ago).
		In this chapter, we will discuss France's fascinating history of art — painting, sculpture, and architecture — while related topics such as literature, theatre and music may be accessed through the Table of Contents on other parts of this site.

	Prime Minister of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The current Prime Minister of France is Dominique de Villepin.
		Where the President and the majority of the Assembly have opposite political leanings, this yields a situation known as cohabitation, where the executive is headed by a president and a prime minister of different opinion.
		However when there is cohabitation (i.e., when the President is of one party while another party controls the National Assembly) the Prime Minister's importance is enhanced because the president has little power to be exercised by himself alone.

	Who were the best...and worst U.S. Presidents? by John Silveira Issue 49
		It’s like asking who you think the greatest Presidents were; it all depends on what your criteria are.” He shook the bag a little more, then looked in and examined the results.
		The last Democratic President to feel obligated to conduct the office of the presidency within constitutional limits, Grover Cleveland annoyed Democratic and Republican Congressmen alike with his insistence that congressional bills be in accordance with the Constitution of the United States.
		Wether for good or bad, Abraham Lincoln, the first Republican President, ruled the nation through the bitter years of the Civil War as almost a virtual dictator, and limits imposed by the Constitution were ignored.
