First hero of France is considered vercengetorix, the man who almost had CeaserRoland the Giant was a Paladin of Charlemagne (Conqueror of what eventually became France and Germany) who allegedly wielded the unbreakable, ever sharp, sword Durandal, gifted to him by the Madonna (IIRC). The knight was one of the overseers in the region that would become France. He fought a rearguard action and died valiantly against theIberian MuslimsChristian Basques in like 778, throwing his sword high into a cliff to keep it out of their hands. He also had a horn horn that he blew so hard it split (like Boromir) and when his body was recovered by friendly forces it was found with him (like Boromir).
There's actually a sword embedded in the cliff in the right place, which is interesting. But, uh, it's all rusty and shit. Very much no longer sharp.
Roland the Giant is basically the protype, or perhaps the first after Charlemagne, French hero, and one that actually existed. (Unlike Lancelot)
Edit: Got who killed Roland mixed up. Muslims were invading and conquering much of Iberia at the time. Sorry.
Same situation happening with these nagging Palestinians in the Middle East.Which is why I’m praying that we start getting serious backlash from this stuff soon or there won’t be anything left to save.
No idea I am sorry to say.Did they apologize for the controversial tweet? And did authorities find the young kid safe and alive?
Hadn't seen this one when it was posted.First hero of France is considered vercengetorix, the man who almost had Ceaser
Oh I know.Hadn't seen this one when it was posted.
While not as venerated(or even remembered) as Vercingetorix, Brennus(chieftain of the Senones, the Gaul who sacked and captured Rome in 390 BC) also got honored a few times - they even named a battleship after him in the 1880s.
We won't find out until 2027.Not surprising, but unless she actually gets into power and has people supporting her efforts in politics it ultimately doesn’t matter for much.
Which depends a lot on everything not flying apart before then.We won't find out until 2027.
When you have all of the parties except Macrons saying to do this.
You fucked up.
Socialists, Comservatives, and Le Pen all agreeing
Nobody knows.So what will the next french government be? Another republic? A return to monarchy? Military Junta? No body knows.
Some are betting on a restored monarchy (via Bonaparte), but I severely doubt that; most likely it's going to be another Republic revision.Nobody knows.
Always fun to place bets

Knowing France's history, it's due for another French Republic incarnation soon. shrug
Sadly true,there would be no Return of the King now,at least not for now.honestly it would probally be better for them to go monarchy for awhile but your most likely correct.
Nobody gives a shit about your fucking cat!Some leftard fuck spouting "end of democracy! we are in a presidential monarchy!"?
Well, my barely housetrained cat has a higher IQ than he has, as she knows that the V Republic has been a presidential monarchy by design and since establishment. Because, you know, De Gaulle had an ego to match Tywin Lanister's and Republics nos. 3 and 4 were barely functional.
...I like cats.Nobody gives a shit about your fucking cat!
