They flip-flopped back and forth between re-instituting empire/monarchy and republicanism before settling on the Third republic. Nobility was restored a few times during, and still exists in a form even if they aren't recognized officially or given political power. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_nobility#Nobility_since_the_Revolution

Of course, assuming that number is AUD (an Australian site uses the same number so this seems reasonable) and doing the exchange, 19.84 AUD is...15.30 USD. It's a troll account, I'm pretty sure. https://twitter.com/Nedsfeed/status/1353539625499942914

quote:Agincourt Hey guys, remember when Henry V used trumped up claims to the crown of France and forced thousands of peasants to die in a war, only for himself to die of dysentery soon after winning and have his nutball son lose it all? Truly, a proud moment that should still be celebrated reverently in the modern day.

The last time the UK won a war against France was when they had the rest of Europe backing them up. Welp. Before that the only time they won was with Henry V, and everything he gained was quickly reversed after he died of dysentery.

tight aspirations posted:Boudicca was foreign? And I'm not sure that dismissing Celtic/ ancient British culture as "non-noteworthy" would work well in Wales, Cornwall or Scotland. So much to unpack about this post. First off, I wasn't talking about the Iceni or any of the ancient cultures that inhabited the islands prior to Romanization. I was talking about modern gammon assholes bitching about foreigners coming into their country and taking over. Also, last I checked the nations that identified their history and cultures coming from the celtic peoples the most (Welsh, Cornish, Scots, Irish) were not fans of being called "British". Britishness is more of an English concept, that they took from the Romans. In fact, the modern concept of Great Britain was first pushed by James I, who for all intents and purposes a "foreigner" who "took over" England. James IV of Scotland couldn't wait for Elizabeth I to die off so he could inherit via his ties to the House of Tudor. The Tudors were also Welsh "foreigners who took over" when they married into the Plantagenet family (french foreigners who took over). Also, I find it funny the idea that an American (me) would be found as being racist against the British. As if the British were a race, rather than a concept invented by elitist aristocrats for the purposes of nationalist propaganda. Also that white limeys could ever be victims of racism. Jolly good. Pip-pip. Wot.

I will say that there is one significant event in British history that did not involve foreigners taking over. Oh wait, George III the guy who lost the colonies was from Hanover. nvm

Also lol at the dual opinions that the British have no culture or history of their own but also ruled half the world at one point. Not a good thing, no, but lol at the desperation to talk smack.

Perhaps the kid had questions about The Bridge, thus the parents labeled him a PTS/SP and grounded him from capitalization until he raised his Tone Scale.
