How do you gain French Citizenship?

I am looking for reliable information on gaining French citizenship. I would also appreciate any information on gaining a work permit in France(for non-residents).

Answer:
Well, i think your parents are not french, so there is two ways :

naturalization : you need to stay more than 5 years in france to be able to ask the citizenship. You may need to pass a meeting to ensure that you want to integrate th e french population (lifestyle, language, etc...). If you study in high scool in France, or make great things for the country, you could ask the citizenship after only 2 years.

by being married to a french: after 2 years (3 if you stay in another country for long trips), and if you can speak correctly french (relatively to your education and capacity)
I believe you have to live there (legally) for a number of years, and then you can apply. Your chances of getting a job is pretty slim, though. Most businesses in France hire for a lifetime, so people are afraid to hire foreigners, or minorities--and most outsiders.

Most European countries are having problems with immigrants, so emigrating will be hard--even if you were born in France! (I know you were not, but even being born there will not guarantee citizenship--I just wanted you to see how hard that country is)

If you are rich, no problem.
You would first probably need to find a French employer who could give you a job and apply for residency on your behalf. Then after a couple years you could apply for citizenship. If you could take a trip there to look at your options that would help. Just trying googling some French employers and see what you find. But the best thing would be to visit and try to make connections.
