I recommend you avoid using non-ASCII characters in source code in
this specific case.

Here, À is a non-ASCII character. If you copy-and-past this
to a Python session, and do
>>> ord("À")
192
you find that it really is the character with the byte value
192. So reformulate the line above to
'À':'A', '<\\\#203>':'A', 'À':'A', chr(192):'A',
If you change all lines in this respect, you won't need an
encoding declaration anymore, as your source code is plain ASCII.
