Key Words/Phrases Location and Geography Paris is a close-knit and welcoming place with a pleasant climate. The Seine cuts across the city and two woods on either side offer a breath of fresh air. Indeed, Paris has been blessed by nature. It only takes barely two hours to cross the city on foot… Paris is not a sprawling capital. With a circumference of almost 55 km (including its two woods, Vincennes and Boulogne), it only comes in 113th place amongst municipalities in metropolitan France in terms of surface area. Located on the same latitude as Vancouver, Canada, Paris is in Western Europe. Official Language and Religion The languages of France include the French language and some regional languages. The French language is the only official language of France according to the second article of the French Constitution, and is by far the most widely spoken. France is a country where freedom of religion and freedom of thought are guaranteed by virtue of the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. The Republic is based on the principle of laïcité (or "freedom of conscience") enforced by the 1880s Jules Ferry laws and the 1905 French law on the Separation of the Churches and the State. Roman Catholicism, the religion of a majority of French people, is no longer the state religion that it was before the 1789 Revolution and throughout the various, non-republican regimes of the 19th century (the Restoration, the July Monarchy and the Second French Empire). Major religions in France include Catholicism, Islam, Judaism, various branches of Protestantism, Hinduism, Russian Orthodoxy, Armenian Christianity, and Sikhism amongst others, making it a multi confessional country. While millions in France continue to attend religious services regularly, the overall level of observance is considerably lower than in the past. According to the Eurobarometer Poll conducted in 2010, [3] 27% of French citizens responded that "they believe there is a God", 33% answered that "they believe there is some sort of spirit or life force", and 40% answered that "they do not believe there is any sort of spirit, God, or life force". This makes France one of the more secular countries in the world. National Flag The national flag of France is a tricolour flag featuring three vertical bands coloured royal blue (hoist side), white, and red. It is known to English speakers as the French Tricolour or simply the Tricolour (French: Tricolore). The royal government used many flags, the best known being a blue shield and yellow fleur-de-lis on a white background, or state flag. Early in the French Revolution, the Paris militia, which played a prominent role in the storming of the Bastille, wore a cockade of blue and red, the city's traditional colours. Climate Paris has a typical Western European oceanic climate which is affected by the North Atlantic Current. The overall climate throughout the year is mild and moderately wet. Summer days are usually warm and pleasant with average temperatures hovering between 15 and 25 °C (59 and 77 °F), and a fair amount of sunshine. Each year, however, there are a few days where the temperature rises above 32 °C (90 °F). Some years have even witnessed long periods of harsh summer weather, such as the heat wave of 2003 when temperatures exceeded 30 °C (86 °F) for weeks, surged up to 40 °C (104 °F) on some days and seldom cooled down at night. More recently, the average temperature for July 2011 was 17.6 °C (63.7 °F), with an average minimum temperature of 12.9 °C (55.2 °F) and an average maximum temperature of 23.7 °C (74.7 °F). Spring and autumn have, on average, mild days and fresh nights but are changing and unstable. Surprisingly warm or cool weather occurs frequently in both seasons. In winter, sunshine is scarce; days are cold but generally above freezing with temperatures around 7 °C (45 °F). Light night frosts are however quite common, but the temperature will dip below −5 °C (23 °F) for only a few days a year. Snow falls every year, but rarely stay on the ground. The city sometimes sees light snow or flurries with or without accumulation Currency The Euro is the official currency of France, and of most European Union member states, excluding the UK and the Czech Republic, among others. The Euro, symbolized by a "€," has been in public circulation since January, 2002. The franc, the former official currency of France, is no longer accepted, however, you may see that some price tags in France give the price both in Euro and in francs, to help those who still think in terms of francs. Tipping One of the most confusing things for visitors to Paris is figuring out the tip system. Unlike the US where tips are expected (and considered part of the wages paid), in France by law a 15% service charge is always included in the price wherever you eat or drink. No matter what anyone says, a service charge is always included. Guidebooks often underscore this fact, reminding you that the service is included. But also they add that it’s okay to leave extra. But Paris has many international visitors, and it’s pretty common to leave something after a bite to eat or drink (leaving a few coins, or some bills, is called the pourboire, which roughly means “for something to drink.”) But it’s never expected and is only given for good or attentive service, or at a place you habituate frequently.

Abstract The French Revolution of 1789 was instrumental in the emergence and growth of modern nationalism, the idea that a state should represent, and serve the interests of, a people, or "nation," that shares a common culture and history and feels as one. But national ideas, often with their source in the otherwise cosmopolitan world of the Enlightenment, were also an important cause of the Revolution itself. The rhetoric and documents of the Revolution demonstrate the importance of national ideas.

  • Crop Production in a Northern Climate Pirjo Peltonen-Sainio, MTT Agrifood Research Finland, Plant Production, Jokioinen, Finland
    Crop production in a northern climate Pirjo Peltonen-Sainio, MTT Agrifood Research Finland, Plant Production, Jokioinen, Finland CONCEPTS AND ABBREVIATIONS USED IN THIS THEMATIC STUDY In this thematic study northern growing conditions represent the northernmost high latitude European countries (also referred to as the northern Baltic Sea region, Fennoscandia and Boreal regions) characterized mainly as the Boreal Environmental Zone (Metzger et al., 2005). Using this classification, Finland, Sweden, Norway and Estonia are well covered. In Norway, the Alpine North is, however, the dominant Environmental Zone, while in Sweden the Nemoral Zone is represented by the south of the country as for the western parts of Estonia (Metzger et al., 2005). According to the Köppen-Trewartha climate classification, these northern regions include the subarctic continental (taiga), subarctic oceanic (needle- leaf forest) and temperate continental (needle-leaf and deciduous tall broadleaf forest) zones and climates (de Castro et al., 2007). Northern growing conditions are generally considered to be less favourable areas (LFAs) in the European Union (EU) with regional cropland areas typically ranging from 0 to 25 percent of total land area (Rounsevell et al., 2005). Adaptation is the process of adjustment to actual or expected climate and its effects, in order to moderate harm or exploit beneficial opportunities (IPCC, 2012). Adaptive capacity is shaped by the interaction of environmental and social forces, which determine exposures and sensitivities, and by various social, cultural, political and economic forces. Adaptations are manifestations of adaptive capacity. Adaptive capacity is closely linked or synonymous with, for example, adaptability, coping ability and management capacity (Smit and Wandel, 2006).

  • Contested Symbolism in the Flags of New World Slave Risings
    Contested Symbolism in the Flags of New World Slave Risings Steven A. Knowlton Throughout the summer of 1800, an enslaved blacksmith of Richmond, Virginia, named Gabriel conspired with fellow bondspeople to rise in arms and fight for their freedom. Among his plans was a scheme to paint a flag with the phrase “Death or Liberty” to be carried at the head of the column that would march into the city.1 Gabriel’s slogan inverted the words of his fellow Virginian Patrick Henry, whose famous oration on the eve of the American Revolution concluded, “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”2 It is a well-known irony of history that among those who fought for American independence from British rule—and couched their rhetoric in terms of “freedom” and “liberty”—were some of the largest slaveholders on the continent, including Henry.3 In popular memory, their struggle against King George III has been valorized, but so have the efforts of those who sought emancipation for slaves. For example, historical markers now stand at key locations in Gabriel’s career, and the Richmond History Center has made an artist’s conception of Gabriel’s image one of fifty key objects that define the city’s story.4 (Figure 1) As Gabriel’s adaptation of Henry’s rhetoric demonstrates, opposing parties are known to assign conflicting meanings to shared symbols; flags are among the most prominent of these, as documented throughout vexillological literature.5 Slaves who engaged in violent conflict with their masters often used flags mod- eled on those of their oppressors.

  • The Pitiful King: Tears, Blood, and Family in Revolutionary Royalism
    The Pitiful King: Tears, Blood, and Family in Revolutionary Royalism Victoria Murano Submitted to Professors Lisa Jane Graham and Linda Gerstein In partial fulfillment of the requirement of History 400: Senior Thesis Seminar Murano 1 Abstract When the French Revolution erupted in 1789, revolutionaries strove to foster a sense of freedom of expression, guaranteeing a brief freedom of the press. The eleventh article of the 1791 Declaration of the Rights of Man asserts that “The free communication of thoughts and opinions is one of man’s most precious rights; all citizens may therefore speak, write, print freely, except to answer for the abuse of this liberty in cases determined by law.” However, as France became further embroiled in the Revolution, it abandoned its allegiance to the universality of these rights, propagating pro-republican thought, and persecuting anyone who did not share these views. The royalist press was a major concern to the new republican government, because it continued to speak out in support of the king and criticize the Revolution. The existence of royalist journalists and writers thus posed a problem for revolutionaries who wanted to establish a monolithically-minded republic. Therefore, over time, they enacted repressive censorship and punishment to crack down on royalist sympathizers. Although they sent many royalist writers to prison or the guillotine, the revolutionaries ultimately failed to silence their political enemies. This thesis uses newspapers, images, and other printed media to explore royalist coverage of three events that diminished royal power: Louis XVI’s flight to Varennes in June 1791, his execution in January 1793, and the death of his nine-year-old son and heir, Louis XVII, in June 1795.

  • Climate Classification Revisited: from Köppen to Trewartha
    Vol. 59: 1–13, 2014 CLIMATE RESEARCH Published February 4 doi: 10.3354/cr01204 Clim Res FREEREE ACCESSCCESS Climate classification revisited: from Köppen to Trewartha Michal Belda*, Eva Holtanová, Tomáš Halenka, Jaroslava Kalvová Charles University in Prague, Dept. of Meteorology and Environment Protection, 18200 Prague, Czech Republic ABSTRACT: The analysis of climate patterns can be performed separately for each climatic vari- able or the data can be aggregated, for example, by using a climate classification. These classifi- cations usually correspond to vegetation distribution, in the sense that each climate type is domi- nated by one vegetation zone or eco-region. Thus, climatic classifications also represent a con - venient tool for the validation of climate models and for the analysis of simulated future climate changes. Basic concepts are presented by applying climate classification to the global Climate Research Unit (CRU) TS 3.1 global dataset. We focus on definitions of climate types according to the Köppen-Trewartha climate classification (KTC) with special attention given to the distinction between wet and dry climates. The distribution of KTC types is compared with the original Köp- pen classification (KCC) for the period 1961−1990. In addition, we provide an analysis of the time development of the distribution of KTC types throughout the 20th century. There are observable changes identified in some subtypes, especially semi-arid, savanna and tundra.

  • Tricolore, the Flag of Italy
    Reading Comprehension/Social Studies Name: ________________________________ Date: __________________ Tricolore, the Flag of Italy Italy's flag is composed of green, white, and red bands. You may notice that it looks much like the flag of France; the reason for that is that Italy was once a territory of France. Before 1796, many different flags were used throughout the different territories that make up Italy, each representing the different local rulers and their coats-of-arms; each with different color schemes. In 1796, however, the French emperor, Napoleon Bonaparte, declared that "the national colors to adopt are the green, the white, and the red." The same year, Bonaparte united two areas of land formerly known as the Cisalpine and Transpadane Republics. In 1802, that became the Italian Republic and at that time a new flag shape was created: the flag was solid red, with a green rectangle and a white lozenge (horizontal diamond) in the middle. In 1805, a golden eagle, representing Napoleon himself, was added to the green rectangle. The State flag also included a crown, and sometimes another coat of arms was added to the white area. The design was becoming very crowded! Finally, on June 19, 1946, the modern flag with its green, white, and red bands was officially adopted. It is known as the "Tricolore," from "tri," the Latin word for three, and "colore," for color. Like most national flags, the Tricolore has a size ratio of 2:3, meaning that it is two parts tall by three parts wide; for example, a flag two feet high is always three feet wide.
