Answer 3

The French are, paradoxically, strongly conscious of belonging to a single nation, but they hardly constitute a unified racial group by any scientific gauge. Before the official discovery of the Americas at the end of the 15th century, France, located on the western extremity of the Old World, was regarded for centuries by Europeans as being near the edge of the known world. Generations of different migrants traveling by way of the Mediterranean from the Middle East and Africa and through Europe from Central Asia and the Nordic lands settled permanently in France, forming a variegated grouping, almost like a series of geologic strata, since they were unable to migrate any farther. Perhaps the oldest reflection of these migrations is furnished by the Basque people, who live in an isolated area west of the Pyrenees, in both Spain and France, and whose origin remains unclear. The Celtic tribes, known to the Romans as Gauls, spread from central Europe in the period 500 BC–AD 500 to provide France with a major component of its population, especially in the centre and west, where the people are generally regarded to have Alpine physical characteristics—that is, broad heads, medium height, and dark features. At the fall of the Roman Empire there was a powerful penetration ofGermanic (Teutonic) peoples, especially in northern and eastern France, supposedly still represented by a population that is tall, blond, blue-eyed, and long-headed. The incursion of the Northmen (Vikings) into northwestern France reinforced these characteristics. In addition to these many migrations, France was, over the centuries, the field of numerous battles and of prolonged occupations before becoming, in the 19th and especially in the 20th century, the prime recipient of foreign immigration into Europe, adding still other mixtures to the racial melting pot.
