France at a glance: its flag, its capital Paris, its population and where it sits on the world map. Plus a way to test yourself afterwards.
The French flag took its final form in 1794, during the Revolution. Blue and red, the colours of the city of Paris, frame the white of the monarchy.
This pairing, credited to Lafayette, symbolised at the time the union of the king and the Parisian people; the tricolour has since become one of the most widely recognised French republican emblems.
