Call me old fasioned but did the first world war not break out in Sarijavo by some one killing Arch Duke Ferdinand. Now He wassnt french was he No. The Kaisser of Germany also had a great part to play in this war due to his inferioroty complex about the rest of the Victorian seed being spread through Europe at the time and guess what He wasnt french either so someone saying that the french were partly responsible for the First world war and surrendering to easily to the italians are totally wrong and if you check your history you will also find that the Italians never actually invaded france but the germans did.
