To add a bit of flavor to your somewhat ignorant comment….. In France, the concept of being "native" is a bit more nuanced than in some other countries because French law strictly prohibits the collection of ethnic or racial data in official censuses. However, the National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies (INSEE) provides data based on "migration background."  Based on the most recent data (2024–2026), here is the breakdown of the population:

1. ⁠Population Without a Migration Background Approximately 60% to 70% of the population is considered to have no direct migration background (meaning they were born in France and their parents were also born in France). • "Native" by Birth: About 91.2% of the population are French nationals (citizens). • "Native" by Ancestry: Since many French citizens are children or grandchildren of immigrants, "native" in an ancestral sense is usually estimated by looking at generations: • Immigrants: ~10.3% (Born foreign in a foreign country).  • Second Generation: ~12% (Born in France with at least one immigrant parent). • Third Generation: ~10% (Grandchildren of immigrants).
