Abstract
France wanted to be the world centre of science and culture at the time of the Universal World Exhibition in 1900 and therefore welcomed several international congresses to Paris that year, including the VIII International Geological Congress. Some of the participants and organisers of this meeting are described and the participants and contributions are analysed by country.
