The French were in a convoluted way fighting their centuries-old enemy, the English, when they befriended the colonies. The numerous American lives lost on the beaches of Normandy & continued losses fighting for French liberation from Hitler, more than cancelled the debt. When the USA was in need and asked for their help, they refused and instead joined the country that enslaved them in the 40s. What's wrong with this picture?

The French developed a reputation as "lovers", not warriors.
I have major doubts about their skills in the first category as well....all that wine is debilitating.
