France’s real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) registered one of its lowest growth rates in 2009 (-2.8 percent). One year after the 2008 financial crisis, France faced economic issues. The unemployment rate in the country went from 7.4 percent in 2008 to 9.1 percent in 2009. Since then, France’s GDP at current prices has remained stable, being the second or third largest economy in Europe, depending on the year. However, in 2020, during the economic crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the gross domestic product decreased by 7.4 percent in volume. By 2025, it had re-increased by 0.8 percent
