In France, people did not want any American way of life to become apart of their way of life but Starbucks and McDonald's came anyways. Also after WW2 the American soldiers brought different kinds of music and chewing gum, now France has the highest number of people buying chewing gum. There are a lot of animals in France, fish are the most popular. In Paris, there are more dogs than children.

In France, they adopted many American words, and they were worried that French people would start speaking a mix of French and English. In 2005, Google offered to let the French use their website but the French government declined because it would cost too much money. The French like the idea of skyscrapers because of movies from Hollywood.
