France

"Re-enact the Moslem invasion and the Hundred Years War."

- Map description

France is a Real World random map introduced in Age of Empires II: The Conquerors. It depicts the area of today's France, and also includes the south of the British Islands, the Gulf of Gascony, and the northern part of the Iberian peninsula.

Overview
The mainland, which covers most of the map, is rather open with only mid-sized forests covering it. There are no rivers and even no mountain or cliffs, since the Pyrenees and Alps are not depicted at all. A lot of Wolves stray the forests, so sending Villagers out without Loom might be dangerous. The water is rich with fish.

Environment
The land is grassy, there are pine and broadleaf forests. There are a lot of Forage Bushes. As with most European maps, the wildlife consists of Deer, Wild Boars, Wolves, and Sheep.
