As we discussed in another post about the territories of France, the French Republic has a continental part (which we all know) and an overseas part. These regions have the same status, as stated in the French constitution. Let's take a look at some details about the overseas regions.

Curiosities of Overseas France

Although these regions cannot create laws, they can adapt them to the peculiarities of each territory. The overseas departments and regions are: French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Mayotte, Réunion.

The overseas collectivities were created with the reform of the French constitution in 2003 and have their own laws (statutes), which is the main difference compared to the overseas departments or regions. They are governed by local assemblies and by the French government. French Polynesia, Saint Barthélemy, Saint Martin, Saint Pierre and Miquelon and Wallis and Futuna are the overseas collectivities.

With regard to New Caledonia is a special territory, as it was granted the status of Sui Generis Collectivity in the 1998 Nouméa Accord.

Es un clásico de la cocina francesa que se ha extendido por toda Europa. Sí, hablamos de la sopa de cebolla. Fue inventada durante la Revolución Francesa y se compone de pan, caldo de carne y cebolla caramelizada. Veamos cómo preparar esta deliciosa receta.

Ingredientes para 6 u 8 personas

6 cebollas grandes y dulces
30 ml de aceite de oliva extra virgen
60 g de mantequilla
2 cloves garlic
2 litros de caldo de carne
6 rebanadas de pan
3 cucharadas de harina de trigo
15 ml de brandy* (opcional adultos)
Queso rallado suave (al gusto)

¿Cómo cocinar una buena sopa de cebolla?

1. Utilizamos la mantequilla y el aceite para pochar las seis cebollas dulces cortadas en juliana a fuego muy lento. El corte, cuanto más fino sea, mucho mejor. Es importante no cocinarlas mucho, deben quedar transparentes.
2. Añadimos harina para espesar la mezcla y la cocinamos bien para evitar grupos.
3. Añadimos el brandy y esperamos a que se evapore. Suele tardar entre 1 y 2 minutos. *Si van a tomarla niños recomendamos no usar alcohol.
4. Salpimentamos la mezcla y añadimos el caldo llevándolo a ebullición. El caldo puede ser de carne, pollo, pescado… De lo que más os guste. Mantenemos 15 minutos a fuego suave y removemos.
5. Tostamos el pan en una sartén y frotamos los dientes de ajo.
6. Emplatamos la sopa, colocamos la rebanada encima y añadimos el queso rallado suave.
7. Gratinamos durante 5 minutos a 220º y “voila”.

Bon appetit!

The flag of France is one of the most recognisable flags in the world. Whether it is because of the country's history or because of its widespread culture, it is undoubtedly one of its best-known elements.

Details of the flag of France

Origins of the flag

The flag originated at the end of the 18th century. The French Revolution brought this beautiful emblem. Its design is often attributed to the Marquis de Lafayette, a national hero (in France and the United States).

Colours of the French flag

White is the official colour of the country. Although it embodies royalty, it has been the representative colour of France for many years. Blue refers to the equality of all citizens of the Republic and red represents the blood of all those who gave their lives for the country.
Some claim that another meaning of the flag is related to France's motto, liberty (white), fraternity (red) and equality (blue).
