Nothing Like a Fine Wine
It's no secret that millions of people around the world enjoy a nice glass of wine, and this is no different for the people of France. In fact on average The French consume approximately 40 litres of wine per person, per year which works out to be around 11.2 billion glasses. On the whole that means around 26.5 million litres of wine is consumed in France each year...now that's a lot of wine!
It is a lot of wine but they aren't the biggest consumers worldwide, that title goes to the United States of America which tops the table with 34 million litres consumed yearly. However, France are hot on their heels in second place, not bad when you consider the country of France is 18 times smaller than the United States!

Yes, you read that correctly, France in fact DID have a King who ruled for just twenty minutes. It all started in July 1815 with the defeat of Napoleon at The Battle of Waterloo and his subsequent exile, after which France was once again under the rule of the House of Bourbon in a time period called the Second Restoration.
Louis-Antoine was part of the royal lineage and was named Dauphan of France which means the heir apparent to the throne. But there was unrest among the public and another revolution was brewing and in July of 1830 under mounting pressure, the House of Bourbon was overthrown and King Charles X (10) signed the document of abdication renouncing himself as King of France. This meant that the crown then passed to his son, Louis-Antoine who became King Louis XIX (19), although this was extremely short-lived as 20 minutes later he had also signed the document renouncing himself. After this, the title of Dauphan was discarded which is why Louis-Antoine is also known as The Last Dauphan.
Louis XIX still holds the record for the shortest reign in history, a title shared with Luis II of Portugal, although things ended a lot differently for him.

No, we aren't kidding! In France you can legally marry someone who is deceased however there are some rules you have to follow. First of all the application must be approved by number of people most notable the family of the deceased and also the President of France.
Traditionally at the ceremony the bride will stand next to a picture of the fiancé and the conductor of the ceremony will read aloud the Presidential decree allowing the wedding to proceed rather than any vows.
France is one of only a few countries worldwide that allows posthumous marriage with its origins dating back to wartime when some women were married by proxy to soldiers that had in fact died a few weeks earlier. This service then was introduced to the general public when in the 1950's a dam disaster in the town of Fréjus killed 400 people including the fiancé of a women named Irene Jodart. After pleas to the President at the time, Charles de Gaulle the marriage was approved and the service was extended from there.
