Hey guys, this is Leroy Kenton here and welcome back to FTD facts
And I'm super excited to do this which is better episode between France and Australia
something's gonna
jump Right into it because like these two teams are gonna be battling out at the 2018 FIFA World Cup this match hasn't happened yet
But let me know down below which team do you want to win so starting off now with a country of France?
France is a secular and democratic
country the word France comes from the Franks
Who are a Germanic people whose name in itself was derived from the Frankish franc?
Meaning free it spans 12 different time zones more than any other country in the world
All thanks to its overseas territories
the total population of France is 65 point to 3 million people and has a
Population of a hundred and eighteen point to four people per square kilometre France has a total land area of 550
1695 square kilometers, okay
So now we're going down under I'm gonna be introducing Australia Austria is a sixth largest country in land area
And is the only nation to govern an entire continent it has 10% of the world's biodiversity
And a great number of its native plants and animals
Exist nowhere else on the planet today Australia is one of the world's most multicultural
Countries it has a population of twenty four point seven seven million, and it's population densities
3.22 people per square
Kilometers the total land area of Australia is seven million six hundred and ninety two thousand and twenty four square kilometers
Alright, so now
Let's take a look at some of their FIFA World Cup stats and see how they match up against one another
France grabbed your spot of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia
By topping Europe's Group A and it's continuing a run of appearing at every single tournament since the year
1994 so the total appearances at the World Cup for France have been a total of 14
And they have won the World Cup once
Currently their FIFA position is in 9th spot and their star player is
Antoine Griezmann
for Australia now
Australia became the 31st team to secure their place in Russia and the number of times Australia appeared in the World Cup was four times
But they haven't want any World Cup championships as yet their FIFA ranking is a lot lower than France at
39th spot now their star player is Tim Cahill all right so moving on from FIFA
Over into the money now the currency that France uses is the Euro and one euro equals one point two three US dollars
Australia uses the Australian dollar and one Australian dollar equals zero point seven seven
US Dollars France is one of the world's eighth leading
exporters trade represents more than 60% of the country's GDP
but the country is experiencing strong trade deficits imports are developing quickly as the French population buys a
Substantial amount of imported goods, which are sold at cheaper prices on the local market compared with products that are made in France
France's GDP is a total of two point four seven trillion dollars and their GDP per capita is
41 point five thousand dollars their total export according to the latest numbers were at four hundred and eighty-five billion
Dollars the top experts for France were planes helicopters and/or spacecrafts
Then we have canned medicaments and then cars follow
imports for France total at five hundred and forty billion dollars and their top three imports are cars crude petroleum and
Aircrafts so that was a bit of a closer look into Frances economy now. Let's look at Australia's economy
Australia is a very stable nation with a highly skilled workforce and one of the strongest performing economies in the entire world
It is a world's twelfth largest economy and a top performing nation on almost every measure of excellence
If you look from health to wealth from doing business all the way to education and Australia's GDP is
1.2 trillion dollars
And they have a GDP per capita of forty six point eight thousand dollars their export stood at 159 billion dollars
And they have iron ore coal briquettes and gold at zero op exports. They're in ports as of the latest numbers are
181 billion dollars and their top imports where cars
Refined petroleum and computers all right so obviously these two nations are doing amazing
economically, but which of these nations is more expensive or cheaper to live in when we compare the cost of living in France to
Australia we see that in France food is 10% more expensive housing is 8% less
Clothing is 4% less transportation is 6% less and personal care
11% less and entertainment
10% less so when we average everything out the cost of living in France is just 4% cheaper than in Australia
All right, and now the final stats that I want to look at is their total national, debt and their debt per citizen
France's national debt is two point six five trillion dollars u.s.
And their debt per citizen is forty thousand nine hundred ninety nine dollars Australia's national
Debt is five hundred and seventeen billion dollars and their debt per citizen is
Twenty-one thousand four hundred forty seven dollars all right guys so that was pretty interesting
