法国习俗法兰西共和国（The Republic of France），简称法兰西或法国（France）。它位于欧洲西部，面积55.16万平方公里，是个半海半陆的国家。人口5540万，90％是法兰西人。9o％的居民信奉天主教。法语为官方言。首都巴黎（Paris),是世界著名的花都，铃兰、郁金香、水仙花、七叶树、百合花以及三色紫罗兰等极具法国气息的小巧而可爱的花，在公园，在街头，以及商店、公司办公桌上，随处可见。法国属于“人口增殖率最低的国家”，1977年法国年自然增殖率只有0.39%，属于世界上人口增殖率极低的国家。为了克服人口衰退，法国采取了一些措施鼓励生育，但收效甚微。货币为法郎French Franc（FF）。现政府为总统制。总统直接民选，任期7年，由内阁会议襄理行政。1964年1月27日与我国建交。从50年代中期到1973年，法国的经济以较高的速度持续增长，迅速实现了工农业现代化，为世界第5经济大国。法国为当代世界八大贸易国之一，素有“奶酪之国”，“葡萄之国”之美称。法国是发达的资本主义工业、农业国，按国民生产总值计，仅次于美国、苏联、日本、德国，居世界第5位，工业产值占工农业总产值的85％以上，工业产品在整个出口中占80％以上，工业是法国经济的主导部门。法国的工业为新旧两大部门，旧的传统工业以分散的中小企业占优势，主要有纺织、食品、服装、化妆品等消费性企业，如里昂的丝绸、巴黎的时装和香水、香槟和葡萄酒等，远销国外，在世界享有盛名。法国大部分人为早睡早起型，工作强度也很高，而工作态度也极为认真。日本著名经济学家笠信太朗曾经评论法国人为“边跑边想的人种”。法国人很珍惜人际关系，据说，商业上也一样，在尚未交成朋友以前，是不会跟你做大宗生意的。在法国从事商务活动宜穿保守式西装，访问公私单位，绝对要预约。在法国，礼节上要求你把自己的身份列在名片上，客人在拜访并参加晚宴的前夕，总是喜欢送花给主人。法国商人保守而正式，尤其是在较小城市如里昂（Lyon）或Bordoaux，你得表现得格外正式，处处勿忘握手，多握几次更好，别问对方家事。法国人对“商业机密”也很敏感。法国烹饪誉满全球，法国人非常讲究吃，就餐是法国人的一大快事，一般喜欢晚宴，不喜欢午餐会谈。到了招待的时候，主人的用心是无微不至的。比如，晚餐的时候，应该招待夫妇两人，这是常识。若应邀到对方家里进晚餐，应先叫花店送些花去。进餐时法国人对味道很敏感，所以，每当有客人夸奖菜肴很好吃的时候，就会很高兴。因而，当客人把所夸奖的莱肴吃完的时候，一定会再端一盘新的上来。有这么一种说法，即法国人“夸奖着厨师的技艺吃”，英国人“注意着礼节吃”，德国人“考虑着营养吃”，而意大利人则“痛痛快快地吃”。的确，这句话把法国人的性格表露得淋漓尽致。法国有句谚语：“酒已取出就得喝”。商谈时作出决定的速度较慢。在法国，要注意商务礼俗，法国人忌讳”13”，他们不住13号房间，不在13日这天外出旅行，不坐13号座位，更不准13个人共进晚餐。法国人喜爱花，生活中离不开花，特别是探亲访友，应约赴会时，总要带上一束美丽的鲜花，人们在拜访或参加晚宴的前夕，总是送鲜花给主人。赏菊是我国人的一种雅兴，但法国人却不同，切记不要送菊花，因为法国（或其他法语区），菊花代表哀伤，只有在葬礼上才送菊花。其他黄色的花，象征夫妻间的不忠贞，千万别送。另外也忌摆菊花、牡丹花及纸花，在法国，康乃馨被视为不祥的花朵，你如果糊里糊涂地买一大把康乃馨，送给法国人，碰到脾气大的，不挨揍才怪呢，法国是个盛产花卉的国家，法国人民将鸢尾科的鸢尾花作为自己民族的国花（欧洲人把鸢尾花叫作“百合花”）。法国人喜欢玫瑰，栽培有7000多种，玫瑰花表示爱情。在法国，男人向女士赠送香水，有过份亲热和“不轨企图之嫌”。也别送刀、剑、刀叉、餐具之类，若送了，意味着双方会割断关系。送花通常要逢单数，但别逢不吉利的“13”。法国本土出产的奢侈品，如香槟酒、白兰地、香水、糖栗等等，也是好礼品。在法国，一些有艺术性和美感的礼品如唱片、画或一些书籍，如传记、历史、评论及名人回忆录等会很受欢迎。法国人除非关系比较融洽，一般不互相送礼。法国对奶酪的消费量居世界第一位。法国前总统戴高乐说过“一年365天，我们法国就有365种奶酪”。法国奶酪至少有400多种，是闻名世界的奶酪之国。如果到法国人家中作客，主人不仅拿出各种各样的葡萄酒来招待客人，而且还会端出各种各样的奶酪让客人品尝。法国人的衣着一般都十分讲宪，尤其是巴黎人以服饰的优美和华丽精致而享誉世界。法国妇女是世界上最爱打扮的妇女，其服饰时髦，所用的化妆品也特别多，光是口红就种类繁多，早、午、晚用的都不一样，因而法国的高级服饰、化妆品和奢侈品也驰名于世。法国人素来爱钦酒，他们爱喝葡萄酒、苹果酒、白兰地、威士忌、杜松酒等。除非餐桌上有烟灰缸，否则别抽烟。法国人不仅在用餐时，而且在平时也有喜爱喝咖啡的习惯。他们通常爱用大杯喝有香味的浓咖徘。因而，尤其在巴黎觉敞的林荫大道边，热闹的露天咖啡座比比皆是。法国人在贸易谈判中被认为有如下一些特点：1．立场极为坚定；2．坚持在谈判中使用法语；3.明显地偏爱横向式谈判。这也就是说，他们喜欢先为协议勾划出一个轮廓，然后再达成原则协议，最后确定协议上的各个方面。他们都具有戴高乐式的依靠坚定的“不”字以谋取利益的高超本领。商务活动应该严守时间，学几句法语会话，才能行动自如。法国人爽朗、热情，比较幽默、诙谐，喜欢交谈，特别爱好音乐、舞蹈。他们即使明天要奔赴战场，今天还要参加跳舞晚会，大家欢乐一番。商务活动在圣诞节及复活节前后两周不宜往访。7月15日至9月15日为当地人度假期。饮水安全。法律规定：不可饮的水均标明：“Eau Non Portable”。入关可携香烟400支或雪前100支，或烟草500克，酒2瓶，限携法郎5000以下出境。人境外汇不限，先申报，可携出。法国禁邮寄避孕药物和用品。英文我不精通，所以提供的材料仅供你参考
