These days at least around Paris (and I mean le grand paris not just inside paris) it takes over 5 month to get a appointment for a Passport or a National ID. They say it's because of the pandemic but i much rather be in the US to renew my passport if i had to.

> OP said “to get an ID in France” not “get a passport.”
It's literally the same process, you just get a card instead of a "book".
> They’re not recorded by “churches” they’re recorded by each state.
OP also used a slash.
OP was wrong about US birth certificates. They’re not recorded by “churches” they’re recorded by each state. My county office issues certified copies of Maryland birth certificates. (Yes you need to be born in the state, but most Americans live in the state they were born in, just like most Europeans live in the EU member country they were born in.)
