How are you doing? France is in very good hands because of you and we hope to help you in your mission to make France even better. France has many strengths that other countries don’t have. Since we are located in Western Europe, we have lots of ports to the east and west. Another great thing about France is that we have good agricultural skills helping us produce lots of natural foods. We also have the 3rd largest army and navy. This can really help us defend our country and attack other nations. On the other hand, we do have some weaknesses that could set us back. We have had an unstable government before you came to power of course, but it still is having effects on the people. Another thing that happened is that we allowed Germany to take …show more content…
The first alliance that we made was with Great Britain. We were able to make an economic, geographic and military alliance with them, which will benefit us. They agreed to give us $400,000 dollars to help us progress in our efforts to industrialize. They also gave us assurance that we would get protection from their great army and especially their navy. This will help us with defending ourselves from Germany. We agreed to give them access to our western ports and some military help. This will really benefit us because with access to our ports, Britain can trade their many modern goods with the rest of the world, which will help improve our own economy. Another alliance that we made was with Serbia. As you may know, Serbia needs lots of help, but with this alliance, we tried to agree to terms that would seem like they are helping them but really, will help us. We made a geographic and military alliance but not an economic one because they don’t have the best economy. We were able to gain access to their ports which can help us trade with Asia by going around Italy, instead of having to deal with Germany. We also agreed to give them military help if they are attacked. We are obviously on top of Serbia with this alliance, which just helps us get
In some reports France has had several economic and governmental issues, but these problems don’t affect us. I think if they did America and others would have a problem. With being in the European affairs it aids to us to because of the support we get and give. When something happens to us, Europe will come and help and support us in any way they can and us to them when they’re in trouble. Like for
There were many things that brought about the development of the economy in New France. They ranged from simple things like fishers and traders and then developed into a global scale market, with trade passing to and from Europe and New France regularly. This process evolved from a simple fishing operation to a market-driven colony with a massive network of trading posts, which in turn began the fur trade and monopolies which later led to the industrial development of New France.
President John Adams had sent several delegates, one of them being John Martial, to France to help sort out the issues between France and the US, such as the United States not honoring the Franco-American Treaty, formed back during the American Revolution, when France had its revolution, by meeting with minister Talleyrand of France. Three of Talleyrand’s men met with the delegates and told them Talleyrand refused to meet unless a large amount of money was payed. The delegates returned home and informed President Adams, who was outraged. The name of the Affair comes from the substituting of the three French men’s’ names with X, Y, and Z in a Congress report.
Two Alliances were formed in Europe preceding World War 1. The triple alliance consisting of: Germany, Italy, and Austria-Hungary (Document 1). The other alliance being the triple entente, which was made of the three powers: Great Britain, Russia, and France (Document 2). Both of these alliances were formed to oppose one another. When there was a conflict preceding the war and Germany rose up, France formed an alliance with Great Britain and Russia in order to have a defense in case of an attack from Germany. In turn Germany took this as a sign that these countries were preparing for a conflict. So, in response they formed an alliance with France and Austria-Hungary.
Similarly, Austria Hungary made alliance with Serbia to stop Russia from gaining control of Serbia. While, in 1882 Germany and Austria-Hungary had an alliance with Italy to stop taking sides with Russia.
Therefore, as a defense mechanism, and a way to be more prepared for conflict, countries found allies in each other. Raymond Aron speaks of an example of this when, “The rise of Germany, whose supremacy France dreaded and whose navy menaced [or threatened] England had created among [England and France] an alliance which claimed it was defensive in nature” (Doc 7). England and France felt intimidated by Germany, so they teamed up, creating the Triple entente, knowing they stood a better chance together. Germany, in response, created its own alliance as a way to protect
The British at that time was in the top two for the biggest army and the other country that had one of the biggest army was the French, “At the time the world had two superpowers, France and Britain”. So, allying with the French made a lot of sense and made America a threat to Great Britain. The French were also an alliance that the United State can trust because the French and Great Britain fought in a previous war known as the French and Indian War (Seven Years’ War). The French had lost that war, so they wanted to get back at Britain by allying with one of Britain’s enemy which was the United States. By allying with the French, who also had a strong navy would be beneficial too because it will help the Continental army fight off the British’s navy.
and found one in America. Britain pushed for a closer relationship with the U.S. and this alliance seemed to be more natural for the British. After all the U.S. spoke the same language, were a former colony of Britain and “a special relationship with the
Even though it may not be Britain, we have formed alliances with many other countries. The relations may not all be good, but we have been involved with other countries. For example, in the photo “Monroe Doctrine” by Victor Gillam, the British are trying to get more land and money out of the U.S., but the U.S. doesn’t like it. America has the sign that says no trespass, and they have a gun ready to stop them, which shows that they didn't want anything to do with Great Britain in our country. We have had foreign relationships with Great Britain, but not good
In the sixteenth century, France’s efforts to colonize North America was jeopardized by religious conflict between the Catholics and the Protestants. The French were interested in fur trade; this became the focal point of the economy and lead to the establishment of New France. The Company of New France would be in authority of this settlement. Quebec would become the first French settlement in Canada because of Samuel de Champlain’s efforts. Ultimately, New France would have about 15,000 residents by the 1700s.
Alliances were a major cause of the conflicts between countries in WW1 The original disagreement was between Serbia and Austria-Hungry over the
We did lots of trading to benefit both of us. The Allies traded with each other since they were in the war together. They exchanged materials or reinforcements. In the end of our class game of “Guns or Butter” my country’s outcome was the same as the other countries.
The Treaty Alliance of 1778 was an alliance created between the United States and France during American Revolution. The alliance gave the United States a significant advantage as they had additional troops and supplies.
France, which is the largest nation in Western Europe, is a presidential republic. France is a very important nation in Europe and it continues to be involved in contemporary policy issues. Helping the world as one of the great trading nations, France is a very important trading partner with the United States. Not only is France important to the United States, they are also important to countries all over the world. Their abundance of both mineral and agricultural resources make them a very important supplier of products all over the world. I chose to report on France because it is an interesting county and I wanted to learn more about it.
The decision to enter into war is usually a great struggle involving many factors. Some countries, however, such as France in 1940, do not have much choice in the matter. France’s leaders struggled with the feelings of autonomy and responsibility. France's struggle entering into World War II was in the difficulty in fulfilling its dual responsibility to the people of France and to the rest of the world whom both maintained conflicting beliefs about the approaching war. The French people desired peace, while the other countries required France to go to war to defend itself against
