didn't the renasissaince happen in affrica nigga
Because our kings were interested into arts
Lots of black people.
Largest population in Europe before the 19th century (excluding Russia)
Fun fact: If the population of France had grown between 1815 and 2000 at the same rate as that of Germany during the same time period, France's population would have been 110 million in 2000 and during the Middle Ages more than one quarter of Europe's population was French

Bouguereau was so good at drawing realistic feet. He was amazing.

Sending massive amounts of your young men to dies in wars so there aren't enough men for the women.

time to get depressed: If France's population had grown at the same rate as that of England and Wales (which was also siphoned off by emigration to the Americas, Australia and New Zealand), France's population could have been as much as 150 million in 2000. Should one start the comparison at the time of King Louis XIV, then France would now have approximately the same population as the United States.
While France was Europe's leading military power at the time of Louis XIV and then Napoleon, the country lost this advantage due to its relative demographic decline after 1800.

I'm pretty sure the slavs were more numberous, it's just thatthey were to arsed to count themselves

>mfw now we don't even have enough children to replace ourselves and are importing shitskins
>Bouguereau

law on inheritance of 1790 that commanded the property to be divided into equal parts among the inheritors contributed to the demographics of France

Not becoming a constitutional monarchy.
For the same reason they are sporting the haute cuisine. Just a nation of entitled faggots who were playing Civilization on easy level.
To be really honest with you guys ... France is the greatest country throughout History. Even now, it's the best place to live, far ahead of those shit depressing scandinavian countries. South-East France is the best place on Earth.
>muh arabs and niggers
Come to Arles, Aix-en-Provence, Cannes, Avignon, Nice or St Tropez, they're harmless and very often bro-tier, and white girls don't even let them fuck them.
Hell, even Marseilles is fucking amazing if you don't go to the ghettos.
The most beautiful girls in the universe live in Aix-en-Provence, deal with it.

One thing I hate about french it's not more widely spoken, just in some god-forsaken islands and in Africa.
Why couldn't you fucks fill the void after roman empire collapsed?
