How Can We Help?
Uruguayans in France are people born in Uruguay who emigrated to France.
Overview
French culture has long had a strong influence in Uruguay, with its secondary education and University tailored to the French model. This is a reason why many Uruguayans have found France attractive as a country to pursue higher studies; many of them decided to stay.[citation needed]
During the civic-military dictatorship of Uruguay (1973-1985), some expatriates spent their exile years in France.[citation needed] There are as well a number of French-born people of Uruguayan descent.
Expatriate Uruguayans have their own institutions in France,[11] such as the Consultative Council in Paris.[12]
