Key French cuisine includes dishes like tarte tatin, crepes, and ratatouille. Important celebrations in France include Bastille Day on July 14th and landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral. The education system is divided into primary, secondary, and higher education with low tuition costs. France uses the Euro currency which they adopted in 2002, replacing the former French franc.
