-Allies in the Crimean War
-Allies in WWI
-Allies in WWII (excluding Vichy)
-Founding members of NATO

Is the Anglo-French alliance the most unbreakable of the last 200 years?"
>>
>>18443025
The first thing France did after WW2 was work with the Soviets to finance Haganah against the British
>>
De Gaulle hated the British and spent decades gatekeeping them out of Western Europe
>>
>>18443025
France has always been America's ally not England's ally
>>
>>18443025
>Crimean War
France did the heavy lifting while Britain was doing comical shit like suiciding their cavalry and other nonsense

>WW1
France was pretty single-handedly holding the Western Front until mid-1916, when Britain finally decided to launch mass conscription as well and deploy more than 100k men

>WW2
Two weeks into the war, Britain just fucked off back to their island and hid there until America arrived four years later

>last 200 years?
import shit

who knew??
frogs and bogs no longer have their own country
>>
>>18443062
Does France have an Entente Cordiale with USA?
>>
>>18443141
"Entente" specifically means not an alliance
>>
>>18443025
Anyone who signs an alliance with France always gets backstabbed by them.
Just look at the 1930s and 40s. France went from a Soviet ally to a British ally to a Nazi ally to an American ally all within ten years
>>
>>18443025
Why are these two countries so obsessed with each other?
>>
>>18443025
>>18443055
>>18443062
What if the Fashoda Crisis had resulted in a successful collaboration between German and French forces, leading to France alienating Britain by aligning with a German-Russian continental system through its support of the Boers?
>>
>>18443453
Nonsense gibberish. The sole aim of French foreign policy from 1871 to 1950 was to isolate and destroy Germany
>>
>>18443453
>Uh what if two mortal enemies ackshully allied with one another???
>>
>>18443025
Italy was a more loyal ally to Germany than France was to England, and I mean this unironically
>>
>>18443491
>>18443487
>"Nonsense gibberish" "ackshully"
>zoomer doesn't know context
You both retards.
>>
>>18443453
Germany and Britain were more likely to ally with each other at that point
>>
>>18443549
But negotiations ceased between 1891 and 1914. Even Winston Churchill's father advocated for an economic alliance with the Germans during the 1880s.

If did success, Italy and Austria-Hungary wouldn't been enemies.
>>
>>18443549
This, an alliance with England would have been the dream for Germans at the time. No one wanted to ally with France, which had already made its hostile anti-German stance more than clear
>>
>>18443602
However, there is pro-Russian factions within Germany. Théophile endeavored to convince Germany to become a signatory members to the Dual Alliance (Entente). Which was Bismarck's dream overarching strategy to prevent a three-front conflict.

Burger are just dumb.

>>18443025
They were always bros, even their "rivalry" was mostly just casual banter with the occasional war for fun until the German autists decided they wanted in on the cool kids club and ruined it by trying too hard.
>>
>>18444132
It was Serbs
>>
L'Entente cordiale is fucking kino
>>
>>18444132
That's just the British perspective. The French hated the English for taking India and North America from them. But to England, France was an ideal rival because it was too weak to meaningfully challenge them, and it made them look moral by comparison
>>
>>18443062
>France has always been America's ally not England's ally
What do you think America celebrates every "Cinco de Mayo"? They celebrate kicking the French out of Mexico, thus keeping that country in the American sphere of influence.

Regarding a potential Carolingian alliance, which could be seen as a German-French rapprochement?
>>
>>18444331
They doesn't read about Quasi-War and the attack on Mers-el-Kébir.
>>
>>18444334
Germans are not trustworthy so no
>>
>>18444359
Somehow trusted Russia?
>>
>>18444334
>>18443141
>>18443257
What if Bismarck had accepted Kaiser invitation and achieved greater success in this geopolitical endeavor until his death in 1905?
