4 Alsace-Lorraine
[alzaslɔrɛn] nom propre fémininThis eastern part of France was the underlying cause of the longstanding conflict between Germany and France. Consisting of part of the two old French provinces of Alsace and Lorraine (today the departements of Haut Rhin, Bas Rhin and Moselle) it was seized by the Germans at the end of the Franco-Prussian war in 1871, becoming part of the German Reich. Reverting to France after the First World War, seized by Germany again in 1940, the Alsace-Lorraine was finally restored to France at the end of the Second World War. -

12 Lorraine
French region located in north east France, bordering Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Champagne-Ardenne, Alsace, and Franche Comté. The administrative capital of Lorraine is Metz; but the urban area of Nancy is the region's largest connurbation. Lorraine was formerly a major industrial region, with large steelworks in the Moselle valley, and along the German border in the area of Forbach. The region is made up of four departments, Meurthe-et-Moselle, Meuse, Moselle and Vosges. Like their neighbours in Alsace, the people of the north of the region, along the German border, have a regional language of Germanic origin. Moselle Franconian is closely related to the Luxembourgish Franconian spoken in Luxembourg. For further information see Lorraine regional guide.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais.

16 Département
County. Metropolitan France is divided administratively into 96 Departments. The concept of the Department, as a territorial subdivision, has existed since the seventeenth century. The original list of 89 departments, numbered alphanumericially from A to Z, was fixed in 1860. Since then, seven new departments have been added. Department 90, the Territoire de Belfort, was made from the French-speaking part of southern Alsace in 1871, and Departments 91 to 95, the departments of the Greater Paris area, added in 1964. Department 20, Corsica, was divided into two in 1976. There are also four overseas departments, known as DOM( Départements d'Outre-Mer). The capital town of a department is known as thePréfecture, and a Department is administered by an elected Conseil Général. Departments are grouped together to form larger units, known as régions.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais. Agriculture Biologique > Département

17 ENA
, the Ecole Normale d'Administration, one of France's top "grandes écoles". The main function of the ENA is to train uncoming generations of hauts fonctionnaires (top civil servants) who will later run France's public sector. However the school also trains future leaders of industry, and many top French politicians have been through this school. Originally located in Paris, the ENA is now in Strasbourg, the capital of Alsace. The network of graduates, known as Enarques, is one of the cosiest and most influential old-boy (and old-girl) networks in France. -

19 Protestantism
See also Eglise Réformée de France. Since the spread of Protestantism in the 16th century, France has always had a Protestant minority, sometimes tolerated, sometimes persecuted. The Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 led to a mass exodus of French Protestants (some estimates put the figure as high as a million), to neighbouring countries, and to the New World. Pockets of Protestantism survived in the Cévennes mountains of southern France, and in Alsace and the region of Montbéliard, in eastern France. These are France's main Protestant areas today.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais. Agriculture Biologique > Protestantism
