What went wrong?
>>889981
They've stopped doing revolutions every few decades to get rid of unwanted element and corrupted elites.
A great military history before 1940, too bad people only remember them for their loss in 194O And French Military meme born since that time
>>889981
Literally everything. France died at Waterloo
France used to have a substantially larger population than other European countries. This advantage eroded due to low birth rates after the Napoleonic wars, hence both the complete military failure within Europe after that point and the military success before it.
Socialism.

The French people are ripe for extinction. It is time they heard the sermon if death. They wish to perish, and one should help them to do so.
There is nothing for it. They are past help, and the longer they linger in this world, the further their poison will spread.
France is big, but a unified Germany is bigger. So my guess is nationalism
>>889981
They were French.
>>890006
Doesnt explain everything though
France used to take on huge coalitions, which often negated its population advantage
>>890005
This desu, France's chance at real leadership is over.
Here's the important things that went wrong :
The succession of the carolingian empire.
The 1519 election of the holy roman emperor.
The Revolution.
The russian and consecutive german campaigns.
The birthrates.
The 1830 revolution.
The 1848 revolution.
The Commune.
The socialists' efforts to prevent WWI.
The Spanish civil war.
June 1968.
The immigration policies.
The UK's adhesion to the EU.

France had a larger population than any individual nation in Europe, yes, but it wasn't 1v1s. France fought coalitions of half of Europe S E V E N times. They did not have a population advantage on the whole rest of europe.
>>890626
British, I suppose ?
>>890005
This is true, imo all of western Europe died at waterloo as the eternal anglos would through away their entire empire and the Germanics would get savagely cuckold again and again
>>889981
Nothing, everything is perfect in France.
>>893524
>seven times
that's only if you count the napoleonic wars. plenty of other wars are France vs the rest of relevant Europe
It's also worth that, other than the britbongs, the French today have a military that is substantially better than anyone else in Europe

French Revolution.
The cancerous poison of "enlightenment" thinking.

All shit

>France is more powerful than Russia
I guess we'll ignore all those nukes.
>>889981
Nothing went wrong. It is just impossible to surpass the glory of the First Empire
>>894370
>Nukes

Top kek m80
>>894372
what is it about /his/ that attracts so much retarded shitposting
between the christians, the polacks and the conspiracy theorists we are lucky to have any kind of board at all
>>894370
Having 300 nukes or 30000 nukes is roughly the same, especially when the country with less nukes has better delivery methods.

nice meme

Except Russia those countries have a worse milotary than France.
>>889981
Frenchmen are savages that can only be ruled by military men. This is a fact. From the Bourbon kings, to Napoleon, to De Gaule, every time a general or commander led France it did great things, and every time it was a civilian it became a former cuck shadow of itself.
>>894385
Russia is literally 100× more bigger than France. How many nukes does Russia have to launch at little France in comparison?
>>894412
>Russia is literally 100× more bigger than France.
And only 2x more populated.
There's no point in wrecking Siberia, selectively nuking the western portion is enough to turn Russia into an irrelevant third world shithole for the next few centuries
>>889981

why does the image have the seventh coalition, and not the coalitions france btfo?

I hope there's more. This comic is like a Houellebecque book.

there is nothing we can do to russia that they haven't already done to themselves
