>>510395967The decline of France is actually an act taking place over 500 years. Even though France is twice the size it was 1000 years ago, it only has 10% of the population of Europe. Back then about 1/4 of europoors lived in the french kingdom. Essentially their true zenith occurred centuries ago, and we are watching the light of a dying star. If they had bred more and maintained their numbers, 200 million frenches. Or to put it another way, they would have annexed most of their neighbors and filled them with frenchmen.
