Th'ere are things about France I bet you don't know.

The world of French trivia is both quirky and fascinating. There are some seriously weird laws, and many more surprising inventions.

Ever heard of a town where UFOs are banned from flying overhead? Or a place where it's illegal to die without a reserved spot in the local cemetery?

Did you know that denim, the beloved fabric of jeans, hails from a town called Nîmes in France? Or that the iconic song "My Way" by Frank Sinatra was originally a French tune? Or that the French beat the Wright brothers into the air?

And don't forget where the timeless fairy tales like Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty come from!

Settle in for a tour of French trivia that -- I hope -- is as entertaining as it is educational.
