A detailed map and some minor information, and some politics!

 Here is the actual website I found this map.
This here, is a very well done map of France
Here are a few fun facts about France:
> It has a population of 65,821,885
> Its general coordinates/ latitude, and longitude is 46.0000 degrees N and 2.0000 degrees E

A little on politics:
France is best described as a republic which basically means power is mostly within the citizens that are able to vote, that vote however is expressed through a representative chosen by the people.

France has both a president and a prime minister,
the president being Nicolas Sarkozy,
the prime minister being Francois Fillon,

To go in depth about the government, it is actually called the Fifth Republic. It is being governed by the Constitution of the Fifth Republic. It was originally created by Charles de Gaull in 1959, he was the very first president under this new republic, the first prime minister under this government was the man who helped him create the Fifth Republic, Michel Debre.
