different sports are more popular in different countries because while cricket was starting in england, Baseball and N.F.L were starting in america
That is a very tough question to answer. The above is correct in that sports which are invented in a country generally are more popular in that country. But I think a lot of the reasons come down to what people enjoy. Sports are meant to be fun and entertaining and some people find certain sports more entertaining than other people. You can ask 10 different people what their favorite sport is and you might get 10 different answers.

Why is football so popular in France?
If by south Africa you mean South Africa, it isn't. Rugby is actually the most popular sport, and by far the sport they have had the most success in, though I suppose that is one of the many sports that can be referred to as "football". If by south Africa you mean southern Africa, I'm not aware of it being any more popular in southern Africa than the rest of Africa, where it is popular because it is cheap to play, Africa has a warm climate conducive to outdoor sports, and because of the British and French colonial presence there in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
