Need 6 coalition of all Europe for defeat French Napoleonian Empire. LOL

Jeeaaanne au secours !

I'm french and i've liked this video. But I've also noticed one mistake. Even if Paris was an important city, during the roman period, the most important city of Gallia was Lugdunum (which is known nowadays as Lyon). Paris became the capital many years later. Even during Charlemagne's regn, the capital wasn't Paris but Aachen in actual Germany (or Aix-la-Chapelle as the french say it). After the siege of Paris by the vikings, the king Charles (who was considerd as a coward) lost lots of influence on the kingdom. The count of Paris who was considered as a saver of the city uses his popularity to earn power. It's the transition between the carolingiens and the capetians who will become the biggest dynastie in whole Europe. And it is also with these events that Paris became the capitale.

That lack of surrendering jokes in the comments section I think we can define a part of happiness there

I have a feeling this is going to be a massive channel

Why didn't you talk about Charles de Gaulle during the WWII?

You left out Louis XIV. You didn't even mention him!

Sorry if i made mistakes. There will always be some here and there :)

You didn't mentioned the "France Libre" of Charles de Gaulle...

I'm going to France for my 43 Birthday.🇫🇷✨

Interesting video but you did not mention that France had a special position during the cold war and was not exactly a member of the western bloc. :)

0:48 Paris was rarely "skipped" by vikings. It in fact was a common place to visit, due to the fact that the Parisians commonly surrendered valuables to the Vikings if they left them in peace. Various Britannian kingdoms did the same, even more so than the French.

Wait, so you're saying France is going to win a culture victory?!

EN FRANÇAIS ; C'est extrêmement simplifié mais correct en général, je comprends bien qu'il faut résumer un max pour faire de la vulgarisation mais la France a une Histoire des plus précises, complètes, variées et intéressantes au Monde, pour ne pas dire la plus ... Je pense que tu aurais pu t'attarder un peu plus sur la Renaissance qui a été rapidement bâclée. Mais surtout, l'Histoire de France, comme toutes les autres, n'est pas uniquement une Histoire militaire mais elle est composée aussi par de nombreux progrès techniques, intellectuels, scientifiques et figure comme la puissance culturelle la plus développée dans la plupart des époque voire de l'Histoire de l'humanité. Le travail graphique est remarquable, bravo ! ^^ IN ENGLISH ; It is extremely simplified but generally correct, I understand well that it is necessary to summarize a max to make some popularization but France has a History of most precises, most complete, varied and interesting in the World, not to say the most ... I think that you would have been able to linger a little more over the Renaissance which was quickly botched. But especially, the History of France, as all the others, is not only a military History but it also consists by numerous technical, intellectual, scientific progress and figure as the cultural power the most developed in most of the times even by the History of the humanity. The graphic work is remarkable, bravo ! ^^

Wow! never knew a history of a major country can be this easy to memorize! I thought this was going to be really hard! I do know that you simplified it a lot for people to understand better so I’m going to have to go to more detailed videos looking at specific timelines of France! Amazing job thought!

I'm so surprised such excellent videos have only so little views, I'm glad I found this channel, looking forward to your next episodes!

And we still have the best military record 🇫🇷

He forgot about the Auld Alliance...
