Is France the next superpower?

[The Lawspeaker]

How President Macron plans to capture Africa's demographic wave by using the French language, with the ultimate goal to cement French hegemony worldwide. For centuries, France was a global powerhouse, permeating its will over five continents. Since those imperial days, it has lost considerable ground in its former domains. Only in Africa did France retain its hold, owing to the monetary system that was put in place. In the decade after World War II, President François Mitterand was quoted saying: “Without Africa, France will have no history in the 21st century.” Like a foretelling coming true, it is precisely because of Africa that modern-day France is returning as the global force it once was. And it’s using the soft power attributes of language to cement its hegemony

Any innovation coming out of France? any positive economic forecast? Political stability?
Africa is only useful by harvest their natural resources and same time dont waste too much money on the African population or infrastructure that's not needed in order to get these resources out of Africa.
Macron is proud of the fact that French is the most spoken language in Africa, I would be ashamed of it. The future is in the Pacific region, and France plays no role there. They had a foot in it before the Indochina War.

I am not surprised that Macron and other humanists think Africas problems can be fixed by education and investment in Infrastructure , they do not realized that those problems are linked to biological/genetic factors that Africans maybe could solve for their own good if they start to embrace Eugenics.

What France could be, however, is Europe's leader. I mean: the Brits buggered off, the Germans are still apologising for merely existing and Italy is very unstable. Remains: France.

Macron is a milf hunter so he may very well shag the old world.

The Atlantropa proposal to dam the Strait of Gibraltar. Every description of the idea starts with the appeal of a tremendous electric power source. As demonstrated by the Lago Mare event, the Mediterranean operates as a net water sink, due to low rainfall and high insolation. Water flowing through the Strait of Gibraltar (and the Bosporus, Nile, etc.) are required in order to prevent the sea level from falling rapidly. The strait of Gibraltar is only 14 kilometers across at its narrowest point, and about 300 meters deep on average.




Goal ---> allow "refugees" to step foot in Europe and use North African oil and gas resources maybe?

^ One of the many bad ideas that ever came out of Germany...

If they ever get rid of the foreigners then yes France could become a world superpower. They were the most powerful country in the world for about 1000 years 800-1812

Nice, I like how you finally exclude Germany, I don't want to be associated with you or the current form of France quite Frankly.

So I guess your personal new Europe is following: Scotland, Benelux countries, France, Scandinavia.

Any other European country you have severe problems with and insult on a regular basis.

I think you need a NW European Union.

I mean that a person in favour of race mixing is also in favour of a nation that abolished every ethnic factor when it comes to nationality and sees a future in Africa and working with Africans, is no surprise to me.
