Lol...that was kind of funny. I remember hearing from one of my many French-bashing neo-liberal friends that France had not won a war since the battle of Poitier in 732. I think that might not be entirely true, but when I started to think about it I realized that it could probably be argued.
It is true. An American author wrote a book about it. Appropriatly enough entitiled '732'. Currently, France has gone the longest, by far, of any nation in the world, that has not acctually won a war in which they were a major participant (exception WWI, but that can be argued). That didn't come-out right, but you know what I mean.
It's true that's hard to find a "french" victory in "recent" history and that's especially funny cause their's national proud, but what about i.e. Poland?
Even when the Polish case isn't truly funny it's interesting think about their sad fate of be occupied over and over and over again!
--> So i'm thinking in starting an new issue in general discution named "Countries with worst luck than Poland (excluded Ireland)"
