Greek and French Culture By: Emily Bunning
BONJOUR! Comment allez-vous? Geia sas! Poseiste?
Learning Target LT: I can explain how culture defines my chosen group in the world today. Greece’s and France’s culture say a lot about the people in their country. The fashion explains what they look like. The food explains if they eat healthy or not. The religion explains what they believe in. Lastly, the holidays explain what they think is important.
France Greece Greek clothing is sometimes fancy, but for many things, it is spunky and comfy. It’s sort of laid back. French fashion is very conservative and flowing. It is great for nice dinners and just to hang out. Women in France don’t generally wear makeup. FASHION-DIFFERENT
FASHION-ALIKE The 2 countries clothing are alike because their people hang out in their clothes. They do this because it’s comfortable.
France Greece FOOD-DIFFERENT Greece has many types of food, but mostly some sort of burger and fries. This is Moussaka. It is made of lamb and eggplant. It is also the most popular food in Greece. There are lots of fine foods in France, but this one is definitely known everywhere. This is a croissant. They are crispy and warm and are made of eggs, butter, sugar and salt.
The 2 countries’ food is similar because they both have lots of bread and meat. FOOD-ALIKE
France Greece Greece’s main religion is Greek Orthodox (97%). The other 3% is made up of Roman Catholic, Muslim, and Jewish. • Roman Catholic is the main religion in France, but the other religions include Protestant, Islam, Buddhist, and Jewish. RELIGION-DIFFERENT
RELIGION-ALIKE The 2 counties’ religion is alike because they both have Judaism and Roman Catholic (probably because the pope, who is catholic, lives in Europe).
France Greece On March 25th, Greece celebrates their Independence Day. In 1821, Bishop Germonos of Patras raised the flag of revolution at the monastery of Agia Lavra. They celebrate it with a military parade. • On July 14th, France celebrates a holiday called Bastille Day. This celebrates the beginning of the French Revolution in 1789. They celebrate it with fireworks and parades. HOLIDAYS-DIFFERENT
