The Paris metropolitan area con­tains nearly 20 % of the nation's population and is the eco­nomic, cultural, and political center of France.

Paris has grown steadily since it was chosen as the na­tional capital in the late 10th century. With the introduction of the Industrial Revolution, a great number of people moved to the city from the country during the 19th centu­ry. The migration was especially stimulated by the con­struction of railroads, which provided easy access to the capital. After World War II, more and more immigrants arrived.

It is a place of publica­tion of the most important newspapers and magazines and an international book publishing center. With more than 100 museums, Paris has truly one of the greatest concen­trations of art treasures in the world. The Louvre. opened as a museum in 1793, is one of the largest museums in the world.

Chief manufactures are machinery, automobiles, chemicals and electrical equipment.
