It's interesting how french people call themselves "a French." FYI, the actual word to use is "Frenchman".

@@yaltschuler That's because French people aren't perfectly fluent in English, so they just translate "un français" literally. The fact that "French" or "English" aren't nouns by themselves and have to be completed by "man" at the end is a confusing quirk of the English language.

Independence from colonialism.

I think it didn't start with Algeria but with the First Indochina War from 1945 to 1954 (Now Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam), and French India (Pondichéry, Karikal, Yanam and Mahé). The inability for France to keep control of Indochina fuelled Algeria's will for independence right after.

@@studytime2570 what do you mean ?

@@retropaganda8442 Algeria is literally what triggered the referendum which led to the end of the French colonial empire. What you mention is just one of the low point of the French empire. It's not even the first, before Indochine war (Vietnam), Haïti was the first to revolt successfully against France. And before Haiti, colonies passed from a country to another. There's dozens of low points for the colonial empire, but the one that broke the camel back was Algeria.

In the same way, in 1999 or 2000 (I have a doubt for the date) the island of Anjouan seceded from the Comoros and asked France to take them so that they become a part of France like Mayotte next to them, but France refused.

@@franckheraut8365 Mayote is still in France because each island of the Comoros voted separately for or against their independance.

He changed the title

I would be pissed about that if I were French... if not for the fact that every citizenship test I have seen has had far, far worse questions. I have New Zealand citizenship, gained when I was born in New Zealand and so no questions were answered, and British citizenship, gained after living in Wales for 5 years at age 12, at which age you don't take any citizenship test. But I saw examples from the citizenship test from friends at university, and, well, we disagreed with almost every question we saw - though the intended answers were obvious. Basically, you say something roughly along the lines of "the UK is the bestest ever country ever with no flaws and is run so well and is a perfect utopia completely free from discrimination where everyone is treated equally by the government", and probably, though I don't remember if this was included, something about pledging allegiance to the British royal family and saying how good they are. I still can't believe that thinking it's disgusting to pledge allegiance to what I would describe as a bunch of rich entitled wankers is an unpopular opinion... though drilling American kids to pledge allegiance to the flag every day at school certainly seems worse to me than the much, much, much less common pledging allegiance to anything in the UK.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the Schengen agreement only applies to countries, not overseas territories or some European islands, like the ones in the Baltic sea, if i'm not mistaken. The agreement is full of exceptions like this one, for a few other European countries. You can travel to those locations for holidays, with only an ID, if you are a European citizen, but you'll need a work permit if you plan on staying.

Thanks for pointing out. I didn't know about this. Does this apply to all overseas territory?

fucking pirates

@@Ysundeneth You obviously don't know what is Schengen... Schengen membership and European Union membership are 2 different things. Schengen is about control, which means there are no border control between member states... you can freely go from Spain to France to Germany to Poland without being checked at the border and if you are checked you don't need a visa or passport (as long as you are from a country member of Schengen). That's what Schengen is. And if you are for exemple an American tourist visiting Germany for exemple with a 3 months VISA, you can freely move to France or Italy or any other Schengen member state and stay there as long as your 3 months VISA allows it, you're not forced to stay in Germany. However you can't take a flight from Germany to French Guiana with a VISA for Germany, but you can freely take a train from Munich to Paris to visit France. Nothing to do with European citizenship which means you can freely live and stay and work in any other EU member state with just your ID. Ireland is part of the EU but not part of Schengen which means there are border controls even from other EU member states YET any European citizen can freely move to Ireland and live there. Switzerland is part of Schengen which means you can freely cross Switzerland if you want to go from France to Italy for exemple without VISA or Passport (as long as you are from a country member of Schengen), but it's not part of the EU which means a French or an Italian can freely cross Swtizerland but can't live and stay there with their European citizenship. French Guiana is fully part of France which means any European citizen (so any Dutch) can move and live there as if he was French, however it's not part of Schengen which means there are border controls.

@@gontrandjojo9747 Yes, you are right. I got mixed up and the overseas territory wrong too. I blame that lovely bottle of Ménétou Salon and some hereditary brain farting. It's actually French Polynesia, New Caledonia, and Wallis and Futuna, where you need a work permit, even if you are an EU national .

As a french guy I can't judge the beauty of my language. I only know that we have the most stupidly complicated language in the world.

The country is dying though. You guys abroad have no idea of how desperate the french people are, how we all lost faith in our destiny as a nation, how our patriotism even faded as a memory, and how unable we are to envision the future in anyway. At this pace, I give us a few decades before what's left of our cultural legacy disappears amidst the ocean of self-hatred we are drowning in.

.....prophet much? I don't see our future either because i CAN'T see the future, but i can guess something with fair probabilities: you and i will be disappointed to see France surviving with close to no reason, and maybe even thriving once more. It might even be, as usual, completely nonsensical at the point of making us asking in our last breath "How the f*ck.....??". I can't wait.

So that gives a lot of room for humanrightsabuses). Everyone knows who actually controls them. It is like CIA. all know they are usa agency. But officially the usa government are not legally responsebile for their actions. And france have long history of inserting and controlling puppet regimeleaders.

It's also further away from the center of the earth and thus you need less speed.

Also with regards to the spaceport in Fr. G., because the Earth spins towards the East, you need to launch the rockets slightly towards East and having an ocean to the East of the launch site means the rockets are launched over an uninhabited area to avoid land casualties in case of failures

Yep, the maneuver thing is the main reason you want to launch near equator. Plus the fact that you can choose prety much any orbital plane for your satellite. The added spinning speed, adds up one or two hundred m/s, out of roughly 7000m/s you need. It doesn't make that big of a difference.

Different velocity but exact same spin (RPM) at the pole or on the equator.

No, it’s really the case. France is a democratic republic of citizens based on the French Constitution. All citizens are equal in right. As there is no more « oversea’s territories or colonies » but only french « départements », all the areas of France in the world are fully France with French citizens. France and all its citizens are members of the EU… and so on! That’s a fact and a very important part of the french way of thinking « law and citizenship » « Déclaration des Droits de l’Homme et du Citoyen » (Human and citizen rights) that made some differences with the British Empire and much more with US. Every citizen can vote, including for the national poles (President, National chambers) wherever he lives in the World including what you call overseas territories. In the same way, black or Asian french (for example) were fully part of the army while the two world wars. Many US peoples came to join the french army because they were not welcome in the US one and USAF. Pilots could be trained and could fight in the french Air Force (in mixed « colors » units), and so on… Foreign citizens can vote for local elections! France is not perfect, of course not, but the legal basis and the Constitution are probably of the best in the world. Yes, some overseas regions have special statutes (not legislation) but it cannot be less than the general national statute and have to match with EU laws. No there is no other kind of « territories » in the French Republic.

​@@frjedi9081 He was actually right. Things are a bit more complicated than what you claim : not all the french oversea territories are « départements », and not all of those territories are actually considered part of the European Union. One example of that is Saint Pierre et Miquelon, which is excluded from both the EU and the Schengen treaty... although as the people living there are french citizen, they are considered citizen of the European Union and participate in european elections. Some territories do have special statutes *and* legislation, and the requirements to match EU laws can be more or less strict. This is inevitable, especially for the french oversea territories, which simply cannot realistically follow the same rulings as the rest of the country, while living in a completely different environment, and trading with completely different partners. Having a united legislation is not something you should thrive for no matter what: on the opposite, being flexible is the best decision a government can take to properly manage such a disparate set of lands.

If he included former colonies, the map would be drastically different.

Les prédictions parle du français comme la première langue parlée au monde en 2050 grâce à l'Afrique. Take your lessons ^^

@@ygg4289bon, le scénario, où le français devient langue numéro une est un peu biaisé. Pas que la langue soit entrain de mourir, mais il faut pas mal de conditions flatteuses. Je ne suis pas sûr, qu’il faille s’enflammer pour cela. ;)

North african countries can speak arabic between one another. A big part of east Africa(though none are former french colonies unless you count eastern DRC) can use Swahili to communicate. In different african regions, by the borders, people speak the same language because often time colonial maps didn't take into account linguistic/tribal maps. Other than those cases, yes, French and English are the only options.
