  "summary": "France and Saudi Arabia are collaborating on a Dragon Ball Z theme park project in France, to be built northwest of Paris. The project is expected to cost €6 billion ($7 billion).\n\nThe Élysée Palace announced the news on Monday, during Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s visit to Paris. According to IGN, the idea for the park was first sparked during the Crown Prince’s trip to Paris last year, when he and French President Emmanuel Macron discovered their shared interest in the anime franchise.\n\nThe park is expected to create approximately 22,000 jobs, although no opening date has been publicly announced. IGN also reports that Qiddiya is providing the funds for the project, which will be one of two Dragon Ball Z theme parks; the other is being built in Qiddiya City, outside Riyadh.",
