See Under France.
Often used with a national title Ie, "France Surrenders" but this must be taken in the correct context such as "News of the rival TV station's rating war reaches the continent, France Surrenders."
Therefore: the algorithm France+War[+any context] = Surrender , must be derived.
Mathematical proof:
Since France is equal to Surrender we can rewrite the equation like so Subtracting Surrender from both sides Now assuming AnyContext is not war, or mathematically -War Simplifying
Examples of surrenders
- Agincourt
- French and Indian War
- Napoleon at Trafalgar *and* Waterloo
- The Louisiana Purchase
- Franco-Prussian War (1871); Napoleon III attacks Bismark, Bismark kicks his arse.
- World War I (1914-1918). Germany declares war on Russia, but that was too cold so invades France instead.
- World War II (1939-1945) the least said about this the better.
- Algerian War of Independence, death throes of a colonial superpower.
In fact, the French habit of surrendering is contagious - see the Vietnam War in which the Americuns took over France's #1 bamboo producer hoping to make a profit, and got beaten back by pygmies armed with chopsticks.
