France is the largest country in Western Europe. It leads the European Union in food exports and is the world's largest maker of wine. The French government plays a large roll in directing economic activity. "Nuclear power, which supplies 80 percent of France's electricity, enjoys widespread support, in part because there is virtually no domestic oil. Government policies provide for a 35-hour workweek and five weeks of paid vacation annually." [1]
