AND HOW DO WE DO IT IN FRANCE?

In France, the country is divided into different administrative units: regions, departments, communes.

Cultural Code: The regions of France are very distinct culturally and historically (Provence, Brittany, Alsace, etc.), and each region has specific traditions, cuisine, and customs. Departments play an administrative role, and communes represent the smallest local unit. Understanding these divisions is essential for understanding the administrative structure of France.
