Priorite a droite only applies when nothing else applies.
That's quite a basic rule. And it's needed for countryside roads where there is no road markings. It still exists in France.
Re. roundabout, most of them are like everywhere else, you've got the priority when you're in.
Place de l'Etoile is not quite a roundabout. I guess it works in a different way because the trafic is not like anywhere else. The same applies for the periph', priority is for people entering it, which is exactly the opposite of any double carrigeway or motorway. But once again, I guess the rule is in a way it suits better the trafic you can find there.
