As British people we hate the French because we've been at war with them for around 1,000 years and owned over half the country for a while. It's only in the last 100 year's that we've been "allies" with the French. And look at the French revolution, that was successfull, not. They get rid af an absolute monarchy and replace it with mass murder for a few years and then place another absolute ruler in place but this time call him Emporer, depose him, then reinstall him when they dislike the polititians and then when he dies they replace him with aking again. (In best 'Allo 'Allo accent) "Pah, ey spit on zees French peeple."

Letting the French capture back Normandy was the worst mistake we every made... followed by America.
Just think how big the British Empire would have been by now had it all stayed ours!
