Why are French riots different?

France has a history of widespread social unrest, often leading to property damage, which is less common in many other developed nations. This means French retailers, like Carrefour, must factor in the risk of such events more heavily in their operations and insurance strategies than their international counterparts, impacting their long-term planning and costs.
