France, offilicially République française (The French Republic) is the westernmost of the Western European nations with Paris its official language and French its offical language. France is officially a secular semi-presidential unitary republic with its main ideals expressed in the 'Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen'. In the 18th and 19th centuries, France built one of the largest colonial empires of the time, stretching across West Africa and Southeast Asia, prominently influencing the cultures and politics of the regions. As a result, though Metropolitan France is entirely within the boundaries of Western Europe and the European Union there are overseas departments (which have the same political status as metropolitan departments) in Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana and Réunion. The French economy is the world's sixth largest and France is a founding member of the United Nations, and a member of the Francophonie, the G8, and the Latin Union. It is one of the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council; it is also an acknowledged nuclear power. The name of the country, 'France' derives from the Franks, a Germanic tribe that occupied northern Europe after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. More precisely, the region around Paris, called Île-de-France, was the original French royal demesne. The first King of the Franks, Clovis, is regarded as the forefather of the French kings. Previously France was the Roman province of Gaul. French cuisine is acknowleged as one of the world's great cuisines and forms the culinary underpinning of much of European cookery. Indeed, many of the culinary techniques used today originated in France and still bear French names. |

But you have a whole animal to consider and this article takes you through the history of beef eating and gives you a recipe for both the best and one of the poorer cuts of meat.
