Since 1848, France has kept a motto which is "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity", but does it really hold this motto as it should? Concerning freedom, I suppose that the latter is respected because there has been a lot of progress since the end of the 19th century. On the other hand, concerning equality, it is a whole other story. Gender equality is still manifest, despite slight progress .. but still not in the field of sport. Equality towards people who come from outside is also not true, because we feel that the French feel superior.

The origins of the French currency: Liberté Egalité Fraternité The motto of France is "Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité". Its origin dates back to the French Revolution, but it was not until the end of the 19th century that it was finally adopted by the Third Republic.
One of the great principles of 1789 was equal rights. It prohibited the existence of privileges.
the idea of fraternity is carried by the great revolutionary wave which will ignite Europe in 1848.
These values were therefore born a long time ago but they are still there and should allow everyone to stay on the right track because France, even if it does not show it all the time, is a magnificent country where we are lucky 'to live

Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, the motto of the French Republic, continues to be the subject, at the moment, of debates and questions on the relevance of its three terms. In fact, many people do not see the necessity, the usefulness of having this motto (most French don’t even know its history) and this is mainly due to the fact that these 3 values are not really respected (in particular equality). For example, the Christian connotation of "fraternity" is not unanimous and some prefer, today, the term "solidarity".

France is the world's leading tourist destination: 89.4 million foreign tourists decided to visit our country in 2018, this figure is up compared to the previous year. Thanks to these tourists, France generated 56.2 billion euros in revenue, a record! The most common tourists in France are the inhabitants of Asia. Despite this, tourists mainly come to visit Paris, the capital which is famous for its fashion houses, its museums of classical art, including that of the Louvre, and its monuments like the Eiffel Tower.

"Liberty, equality and fraternity" is the motto of France. But is it real? Indeed are we all equal and free? If we take the example between men and women, there are wage inequalities, for example. At the same level in a company, a man earns more than a woman, yet these two individuals do exactly the same work and the same amount. As far as freedom is concerned, France is one of the most developed countries in this area. Indeed, as citizens, we have many freedoms such as freedom of religion, freedom of expression, freedom of movement and many others.

In France a lot of people complain, in terms of liberty and law, we are never happy. I think it's a question of mentality. Indeed, I have visited Cap Vert, a small isle with nothing, people have no money, struggling to feed themselves, and some others importants problems, but people don't complain and are very welcoming. I think some people in France could visited a country such as Cap Vert, to realize the lucky that we have to live in France. It's true we have some difficulties, but in general it's a country which proposes a lot of help for the population, has the image of it's motto: liberty, equality fraternity.

The motto of the Republic has been since 1875: "freedom, equality, fraternity" and its flag consists of three colours: blue, white and red.However, I do not know whether this motto is really respected by all French citizens. In fact, equality as everywhere in the world is not always respected. For example, unequal opportunities in France are primarily educational.The higher an individual’s standard of living, the more likely they are to have degrees while access to diplomas appears to be the first lever to unlock the social elevator. So this is an economic problem. As for freedom, I think we have enough in France. There is freedom of expression, the right to vote, the right to life and family... I think we are fortunate to live in a democratic country for in many countries freedom is not possible and war is sometimes present.

France, a western European country, has medieval towns, Alpine villages and beaches. It is renowned for its gastronomy, notably its good wine. Paris, its capital, is famous for its fashion houses, its classical art museums, including that of the Louvre, and its monuments like the Eiffel Tower. The country is also renowned for its wines and fine cuisine. The cave paintings of the Lascaux caves, the Roman theater in Lyon and the immense Palace of Versailles bear witness to its rich history.

We can't talk about France without talking about that fabulous and diverse gastronomy. Indeed, French cuisine is recognized throughout the world with these famous cheeses and pastries... Moreover ; France is also the symbol of fashion and luxury symbolized by our capital Paris the most tourist city in the world. Finally, France has a great diversity of magnificent landscapes located between earth and sea.

France, the country of revolution.
With this motto Liberty, equality, fraternity France is a country recognized by all.
This same recognized country of all is much criticized by these own inhabitants.
I think that even if there are difficulties in this country as in all the French do not surrender count of the luck they have.
Freedom is present in comparison with other countries like North Korea, which is ruled in any other way than our dear country, freedom does not exist.
France is not perfect, there are striking inequalities but nothing is perfect in this world.
There is education, hospital care, a number of things that make this country an Eldorado for countries that are undergoing civil war, for example, in Syria.

France, the Finistère of Europe is a democratic country which bases its policy on the motto "freedom, equality and fraternity". unfortunately, these 3 terms are very subjective, because they cannot be really reached in the society in which we live. Indeed, the latter is made up of laws and when they are not respected, the individual responsible for the offense is punished. thus, the principle of freedom is called into question. moreover, how can we speak of equality when the most prestigious schools, allowing the obtaining of a managerial profession, are only accessible to an affluent minority part of society? or homeless people who die every year because of the cold?

For freedom of expression, the French are the big winners. They spend their time complaining about inequalities, but don't even look at the rights they already have. For the fraternity we are still far away, many people do not help the homeless, and many people do not even look at them. Equality ... of the sexes? I don't see many women in politics, and the only one I see has unpleasant speeches. In contrast, pleasant French isn't found in France .... metropolitan. Martinique, Reunion, Guyana, are regions populated by extraordinary people, everyone is smiling, friendly, and we have the impression of being friends with everyone. When we say hello to someone, the person answers us! (hard to find that in Paris). France is a beautiful country, populated by different religions, cultures, and it is one of the positive points. The negative point is the mentality of most French people. I hope that one day a female president will change their mentality Very Happy

In 2018, France set a new record for tourist traffic, with 89.4 million foreign tourists, the number of visitors in 2018, certainly record, could have been even better without the spring strikes in transport, and especially the “yellow vests” which affected the hotel industry in December. France was already the most visited country in the world, with 86.9 million foreign tourists, ahead of Spain (81.8 million), the United States (75.9 million), China (60.7 million), Italy (58.3 million), Mexico (39.3 million) and the United Kingdom (37.7 million).

Beautiful France with its cheese and baguette under its arm, not to mention its beret, is a constitutional republic where democracy reigns (lol). It also has a beautiful motto "liberty, equality, fraternity" (double lol). However, we're world football champions, so we're happy. France also has the famous and magnificent Social Security. For the little anecdote, we have a president who has never seen Marseille win in Bordeaux, and that's magic. In 2024 we're going to host the Olympic Games, we're going to celebrate, so we won't see all the problems in our country.

France the country in which I was born and in which I currently live is a country of freedom which even has the motto: freedom, equality, fraternity and the Marianne symbol but it has not always been a country of peace and peace of mind because quite simply also affected by the war in 1914 on the coasts of the United States. A whole part of the country was occupied by Germany before regaining its independence.
Personally I find it to be a cool country and rather pretty to see.

France is characterized by an ancient sporting tradition and a wide variety of disciplines practised at a high level. The country has played a leading role in the organisation of modern sport and its achievements since the end of the 20th century. France is the fifth most rewarded nation in the history of the Olympic Games. Fencing and cycling are the disciplines in which France is the most titled. Paris is the host city of the Summer Olympic Games in 1900 and 1924; it will be for a third time in 2024.Among its other notable distinctions, France has won the World Cup of football twice, the Davis Cup 10 times or the Six Nations Tournament 25 times. France is a very present country in the world of sport.

Liberty, Equality, Fraternity is the currency of the French Republic and the Republic of Haiti1,2. It appears in article 2 of the French Constitution of October 4, 1958. But in reality it is not really respected. On the freedom side, not everyone has the freedom of expression, the freedom to think .. some things are censored or do not give everyone the opportunity to express themselves. At the level of equality there are still many flaws, gender equality, opportunities .. are not yet respected .. and brotherhood it does not necessarily appear in each family ..

France is considered one of the most beautiful countries in the world. But we have a motto that is not fully respected. We are free, but we must not abuse and respect the laws. We are not all equal, women and men are not paid in the same way when we are doing the same job. We also have immigrants who are not accepting because of the skin color while they are like us all French they want to be free, worked to earn money and feed their families have a home and live a better life than in the country they fled.

in our country, our rules of life, are similar to three words: Equality, fraternity and freedom.
Nowadays, French Has been affected by numerous political blows and to various fields such as : violence by woman or even sexual abuse of many actress in the cinema. But, using to our french compassion, each one plays a protective role and helps in turn.
Only, being a free country, everyone has the right to think and say what they want. This can also unfortunately lead to an imbalance in terms of French equality.

Since the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen of 1789, France is often called "the homeland of human rights", because of the universal vocation of this first declaration of human rights. France has played an important role in the development of international human rights law. However, France has been condemned on numerous occasions by international human rights organizations.
