The Mediterranean Sea has many wonderful things.
It has a gorgeous view of, well, itself. Food and other
resources needed to survive are hidden underneath.
Seaweed is actually an "ingredient" for plastic!
France and Italy border this
beautiful body of blue. Of
course the languages spoken are
French and Italian. Cheese is a
big part of both countries and
their economy. Some French ones
include Tru-du-Cru, Brin d'amour
and Camembert. Italian cheeses
like Parmigiano Reggiano (a
personal favorite), Asiago,
Mozzarella, or even Provolone
are only a few of this country's
cheese bounty. Franz Liszt used
to live in France and now is a
legend. In Italy just some of the
genres are pop, jazz, rock, or
house. Guitars are very widely
played in the "boot" too. A Religion
of France can be Catholic, and many
holidays are celebrated like Poisson
d'avril, May Day, Epiphany and
Mother's Day. Italian religions can be
Catholic, Bhuddist, or Islam. Some
holiday examples are New Year's,
Labor Day or Republic Day.
