Marseille: Marseille is a city in southern France, the prefecture of the department of Bouches-du-Rhône and of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Situated in the Provence region, it is located on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, near the mouth of the Rhône river. Marseille is the second-most populous city proper in France, after Paris, with 886,040 inhabitants in 2023 over a municipal territory of 241 km2 (93 sq mi). Together with its suburbs and exurbs, the Marseille metropolitan area, which extends over 3,972 km2 (1,534 sq mi), had a population of 1,900,957 at the January 2022 census. The cities of Marseille, Aix-en-Provence, and 90 suburban municipalities have formed since 2016 the Aix-Marseille-Provence Metropolis, an indirectly elected metropolitan authority now in charge of wider metropolitan issues, with a population of 1,922,626 at the January 2022 census.

Marseille is France's second-largest city and oldest major settlement, with about 877,000 residents and a metropolitan area of around 1.9 million on the Mediterranean coast of Provence. Founded around 600 BC by Greek colonists from Phocaea as Massalia, it has been a port for more than 2,600 years, making it one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Europe. The Vieux-Port still anchors the city centre, while the modern Port of Marseille-Fos is France's leading port and one of the busiest in the Mediterranean, handling roughly 100 million tonnes of freight a year. Centuries of trade and waves of migration from Italy, Armenia, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, and the Comoros have made Marseille one of France's most multicultural cities; it served as European Capital of Culture in 2013. The city observes Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) with CEST (UTC+2) in summer.
