Napoleon is the reason the French are no longer tough. He genocided all the tough ones by marching them off to certain death in the Russian winter and far from France’s traditional enemies in the City of London. Even after that event there remained enough French patriots that the City of London had to bring Napoleon back from his first retirement for Waterloo, then a generation later they had to revive his name with Napoleon III, who also led his troops to certain defeat. Since then, it’s been the fashion and food capitol of Europe, they’ve left the fighting behind.
Germany was also dealt a similar one-two punch that took another of the City of London’s continental competitors out of play.
