France, one of the largest countries in Western Europe, is bordered by the English Channel, the North Sea and the Benelux countries to the north. To the East the Rhine river creates a natural border, as do the mountains toward Switzerland and Italy down to the shores and picturesque fishing villages of the Mediterranean coast. The majestic Pyrenees mountains separate France from its southerly neighbour, Spain. Rugged, beautiful coastal regions border the Atlantic Ocean to the west. "La Republique Française" is France’s official name and the 65 million French are a democracy-loving people whose ideals are clearly articulated in the famous slogan of the French Revolution: "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity".
