The greatest French leader was a Corsican and their greatest warrior was a 16-year-old girl. Their national holiday is Bastille Day, July 14. In 1789, hundreds of them stole some guns and attacked an empty prison. To this day that hollow victory is their national holiday.

And don't forget that their elite military unit is the Foreign Legion. A group of men from various backgrounds that have nothing in common except that They Are Not French.
