We English and the French haven't always been on good terms. In fact, since Roman times we've had the habit of killing each other. We spent several centuries trying to conquer one another, culminating in the Hundred Years' War, before giving up and spending the next few centuries making each others' lives miserable. But after Napoleon's defeat, Britain and France never went to war again. Why? You can thank the Russians and the Germans!
