    You know that's not how we really feel about the frenchies right? It doesn't have anything to do with trying to make yourself feel better about your culture unless you're an utter asshole. It's just a joke.
    Oh and besides they had a bad run since Napoleon, not just WW1-2.

    Everybody knows this. You're just upset because you're Canadian, which is almost as bad.

    Well, I'm not going to debate about France being a super military power in history, neither Napoleonic Wars. I was just pointing it out.

    Well come on, to be fair, almost everyone acknowledges the German military in WWII was revolutionary and incredibly succesful in spite of the fact that it ultimately lost. Same goes for Napoleon's armies really. Credit where credit's due and all that.

    Ha. Wow, that really is bad. But still, you have to give Joan some respect. She may have been a crazy b**ch but it takes skill to turn back a powerful enemy when nearly half of your nation has been conquered. (Que rant about how cannons actually saved the day.)

    Anyway, back on topic. I demand to see the haters and the fans of Hollande go at it once more.

    You are VERY upset. In fact, so upset that you should punch a policeman in the face and tell us how that went.

    France's military history is nothing when compared to Italy, Mexico, or Austria

    I would do it with most delight, but I'm suffering from sudden arthritis. Right now my slave servant Mortimer is writing for me.

    French couldn't have made such a huge empire in 1700 and in 1800 if they didn't win wars, at the time
