      I am hardly known for my dislike for the french: actually, I like their country very much. But this is very weird, and sounds like a bone thrown to the french. I don't think that this fooled anyone as to the impact of France in the war.

        Churchill advocated that they be included, and the others thought it couldn't hurt much.

              You DO know that they also got an occupation zone in Germany, a far bigger bone than the zone in Austria? And a zone in Berlin? And that well into the '80s, at least, the French forces in Germany were deployed in the old French occupation zone (as US forces were in the old US zone, and Brits and Canadians in the old UK zone)?

                    Blue is the colour of Liberalism, always has been.
                    Except in the countries who don't eat fried fat straight out of bag, where it is yellow. At least to my knowledge.

                      The red rose stands for love and represents (in traditional socialist ideology) taking care of each other.

                        Hmm, and what do you think the blue colour in the French tricolore stands for?

                            I think it's the old symbol of the social-democratic internationale, when it splitted off the Communist internationale.

                              One half of Paris' old symbolic colours.

                              Paris colours are Bllue and Red (I think it's very old), and the white in-between symbolizes the monarchy.

                                Amazing how many countries sport the blue, red, white combination in some variant.
