Tunis is the capital city of [[Tunisia]] and is sited close to the remains of ancient [[Carthage]]. Tunis is also the seat of the Tunisian President.

Tourism is a major component of the economy in Tunis and it is home to the famous Bardo Museum. This museum was originally a 13th century Hafsid palace. It contains an important collection of mosaics and artifacts from the [[Roman Empire]] and other antiquities from the Arab period.

The ruins of [[Carthage]], another area of archeological and tourist interest, are nearby along the coast to the north east.

French is a modern European language, a member of the Romance language family, which like others in this group owes much of its structure to [[Latin]] with some influence from the native languages of the pre-Roman [[Franks]]. In medieval times, French had evolved into two groups, a northern branch known as the "Langue d'oi," and a southerly group known as the "Langue d'Oc." However, after the political influence of the southerly group was crushed by the [[Albigensian Crusade]], the northerly variety became dominant, and is the ancestor of modern "standard' French. French is also spoken in many former French colonies in [[West Africa]] and the [[Carribbean]], the Canadian province of [[Québec]], by some people in [[Vietnam]], and in other places. In [[Tunisia]], a former French colony, French is still one of the primary languages spoken.
