France: most successful military of all time, makes one colossal fuck up.

Everyone: cheese eating surrender monkeys.

Vive la France!

Napoleon had a successful army but I mean after that?

Short story: this joke is dumb and offensive.

Yeah.. Post 19th century is just a string of defeats and atrocities.

WW1 might be an atrocity but it was pretty famously not a defeat

Well isn't it considered in the same way as WW2? Saved by the Americans? There was peace on the eastern front in the end, freeing German resources which (maybe) would have made a difference at the western front but then fresh US troops poured in?

I'm no WW1 expert however and since that never happened there's only speculation.
