    There's a fancy museum in Paris and queues of people to see La Gioconda, an old Italian painting.

    In reverse culture, not very different. Only when their tanks backed into each other. Both have glorious pasts ......... in their own minds.

    French people are very friendly I have no idea where they get this reputation for being snobby. I've never meet a snobby French person.

    I know one French person, he's very nice.

    I also know a few Italians, who are also very nice.

    Therefore, both nations are inhabited, without exception, with lovely people.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    This post made me smile in an almost imperceptible way, also my eyes are following everyone around the room.

    Well, they are quite different. They speak different languages, Italy is probably culturally closer to Spain than France. The northern half of France is culturally closer to Germany, Scandinavia, and Britain than it is to Italy, while southern France is more like Spain and Italy.
