Although three structural elements: colonial heritage, geographical proximity and the existence of the CFA franc zone—have strongly shaped trade patterns, their importance has declined over decades, not least among France which have been dominant in Africa since colonial times. Furthermore, the growing awareness of African elites has led to the decline of French influence in Africa, which has not long been considered a divine right . This study aims to shed light on France’s African relations primarily emphasizes political, economic cooperation and cultural exchange. In addition to factors that weaken and decrease its relations with African countries such as the contribution of the African awareness of the elites also the emergence of investors and partners such as China and India.
