The French timber framing looks a bit dreary desu and if you're into the medieval aesthetic than Germany is your home because there are entire cities and towns that have stubbornly maintain this heritage. Unlike France and the UK even as they were counties that took the industrial revolution seriously and replaced most medieval buildings in every settlement with stone and in the case of France gave them all blue tile roofs. Also Alsace looks amazing because its a German culture thing

Yes, I am aware of that, but it says something that Germans faithfully rebuild so much and in the case of Frankfurt they're are massively rebuilding the old town (altstadt)

>>
Until the 19th century the country was by far the richest in Europe which explains why there was so much money available for embellishment. Also the country is at a confluence of several European cultural spheres and geological and climate areas which explains the variety. It's a bit like if you picked a geographical feature of each US state and crammed it all on an area the size of a single state. Traditional houses are built with local material to deal with the local climate. It's not surprising that in a place with very varied stone and wood availability you'd get very varied houses.

France is a large country in Europe, you'd expect it to have a couple of treasures.

It's en par with Spain, but Italy totally dominates the world of comfiness.

Germany is crowded with architectural treasures, but all major large towns have been destroyed. Prewar Germany would have destroyed France.

This.

We got fucked hard in the war. I don't care much about having to let go of Prussia, what the soviets did to East Germany, how the Brits literally destroyed some of our islands in the north or that Frenchie got to keep Alsace and Lorraine. Hell, I can't even give much of a shit about Americans bombing the crap out of industrial centers.

But almost every town down in my native south is now a soulless piece of shit compared to how it looked before the war. Most of that is post-war growth, of course, but how much more cozy are those happy few towns that still have their historical buildings...
>>
>>2049677
This.

I grew up in healthy country air, which smells like literal horseshit and is thus still superior to Paris.

I'm French and I agree, the aesthetics of the country were ruined in the 70s, most of the urban landscape is a mix of suburban concrete houses and commieblocks modern and old, the "aesthetic" parts are falling into ruin or being ruined by bad management of what touristic areas should be like.

And how many times did France invade Germany, massacring its population and burning down everything in its way?

And Alsace-Lorraine is historically German, just as most of France was historically not French.
>>
>>2049365
It's a common misconception that WW2 is the reason Germany has so few old buildings. In reality, most "medieval" things in Germany were actually built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Don't believe me? Look at any old looking building in Germany that's more than a hut, and you'll find it was built under the Kaiser by fake medieval style architects like Bodo Ebhardt, as part of a campaign to create from scratch an architectural heritage that Germany simply didn't have.

For the same reason the Germans systematically demolished any French medieval castles and cathedrals they could get their hands on during WW1.

That's simply not true. And it is known for a fact that it was France that burned down entire cities, palaces and castles in Germany. The Heidelberg castle is just the most famous example.

Speaking of 'fake' buildings: The Chateau de Pierrefonds and Carcassone were actually built in the 19th century.
>>
>>2049851
When France invaded Germany, it didnt burn towns, massacred civilians or destroyed culture as you did. NEVER. Do you really want to read about Blucher, Hitler, their ideas about Paris? Also, are you retarded? The whole Germany thing isn't historically German. France is an older country, and Alsace Lorraine is historically and logically French. I believe already mentionned Joan of Arc. The land switched hands many times, that is true. But lately, we gained it from no one (the HRE) during the only just war that Europe has seen in the century: French Revolutionary wars. You gained it just to have a bit more time to prepare from a French invasion, EXACTLY like the French when they occupied the Ruhr.

Daily reminder that Alsacians have Germanic family names because Hitler forced them to change in 1940.
>>
>>2049851
I was reading about Speyer and its important Cathedral and I found this

>Although repeatedly occupied and ransacked, town and cathedral survived the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648) with little damage. During the Nine Years' War (Palatinate War of Succession 1688–97), the people of Speyer brought furniture and possessions into the cathedral, stacking everything several metres high hoping to save them from the French troops of Louis XIV marauding the town. But on 31 May 1689 the soldiers broke in, pillaged the imperial graves and set everything alight. On that day almost the whole town of Speyer was burned down. In the heat of the fire the western part of the nave collapsed and the late Gothic elements were destroyed.[11]

>In 1792 Speyer was again occupied, this time by French revolutionary troops, and once more the cathedral was pillaged. During the Napoleonic Wars (1803 to 1815) the cathedral was used as a stable and storage facility for fodder and other material. In 1806 the French had in mind to tear the building down and use it as a quarry, which was only prevented by the bishop of Mainz, Joseph Ludwig Colmar. After Napoleon's victories over the Prussian and Russian armies in the Battles of Grossgörschen and Lützen in 1813, around 4,000 wounded soldiers came to Speyer. After the battle of Leipzig there were even more and the cathedral was needed as an army hospital.[24]

Are the French the real niggers of Europe? Some good Catholics they are.

>Speaking of 'fake' buildings: The Chateau de Pierrefonds and Carcassone were actually built in the 19th century.

No. Just no. Of course an entire city will have more modern parts, but as a whole, both were started in the Middle Ages. Fucking liars.

You're probably very young, which might excuse the blatant lack of education, but the French invasions in the 17th, 18th and 19th century were far more destructive than anything Germany is to blame for in the years to come.

Also France isn't an older country. France was invented in the 17th century after the king enforced his doctrine that anyone in his realm would have to obey to but his god and speak his language. This resulted in a cultural genocide. Even to this day, France hasn't made any efforts to protect its minorities and their culture. Because it is probably to late by now.

And you didn't gain the lands in the Revolutionary War. You conquered and Alsace and retrieved Lorraine as a result of a treaty.

And I guess Hitler also renamed the Alsacian cities with German names they are still bearing.

What a pathetic comparison. Heidelberg Castle wasn't destroyed but merely damaged so it could no longer serve as an immediate fortification, and that was during the 1600s.

Germans on the other hand used 30 tons of dynamite in the fucking 20th century to blow Coucy Castle into dust, which was probably the most impressive medieval castle ever built, with absolutely no strategic reason whatsoever, but simply in an effort to erase history. ISIS tier.

And no neither Pierrefonds nor Carcassone were built in the 19th century, they very much already existed and were only restored.

Restoration means restoring a damaged building to its original state.

We were the good guys in that war though. Spain rebelled through English propaganda, but we brought you more good than bad. I'm not well versed in the exactions of the French Army in Spain, I have to guess they had a reason to blow up the Alhambra, (maybe to pursue the Reconquista WE started for you). But maybe it's was just the side, thug and not so great part of the Great Army that we sent to Spain.

I'll also have you remember, though I doubt you will, the treatment Spaniards gave to French POWs, that the Nazis could only inspire from to use in concentration camps. Not worthy of a human being. (not talking about the POW, but about the guard here). Oh the irony, you'll take pride in that :^)

>>

Why would they if you're already surrendering your countries to them?

The reason France is targeted rather than Germany or England is because it's the only one of the three to fight ISIS, the only one to force Muslims to obey French laws instead of forcing Islamic law on the rest of the country, and the only one where women don't massively spread their legs for Muslim dick.

It's a clash of ideologies. It only takes a passport to become a Frenchman, but the German identity is based on blood.

Germans don't take pride in their nationality because they're born with it. It's not a choice. Whereas the French have to justify their national identity, because why would you identify as French when in reality your ancestors where Basque, Bretons, Spaniards and Germans?

In reality, people don't really care.

You blamed us for a war you were pushing for for ages, only to invade us again and rape women when a starving populace couldn't keep up with the payments.

We saw you raping our women in WWII and after German soldiers died in the East to protect Europe from communism, you were taking German kids from their parents in Alsace, so they would grow up in French families and never learn their mother tongue.

In 1920, Poincaré's term as President came to an end, and two years later he returned to office as Prime Minister. Once again, his tenure was noted for its strong anti-German policies, with Poincaré justifying these by saying: "Germany's population was increasing, her industries were intact, she had no factories to reconstruct, she had no flooded mines. Her resources were intact, above and below ground... [i]n fifteen or twenty years Germany would be mistress of Europe. In front of her would be France with a population scarcely increased.

The Alsatians and Lorrains wanted to remain French and wanted nothing to do with shithole Empire of Butthurt and Autism. You forcibly annexed them, but not content with that you started a world war which you lost, thanks to which they were finally freed. Then you started another world war because you were so butthurt about what you lost in the first one. Maybe you should keep doing that, seems to be working great.

Is this your autistic cockgobbling faggot way of asking for a source?

>During the Reichstag elections, the 15 deputies of 1874, 1881, 1884 (but one) and 1887 were called protester deputies (fr: députés protestataires) because they expressed to the Reichstag their opposition to the annexation by means of the 1874 motion in the French language: « May it please the Reichstag to decide that the populations of Alsace-Lorraine that were annexed, without having been consulted, to the German Reich by the treaty of Frankfurt have to come out particularly about this annexation. »[5]
>>
>>2050561
That's the difference between France and Germany.

When France annexed Nice and Savoy in 1860, it was only after the people of those regions gave their approval by referendum.

But to Germans free will doesn't exist. People are just cattle to be herded because they speak a dialect that belongs to a language family the Germans unilaterally declared themselves supreme rulers of.

>The Treaty of Frankfurt gave the residents of the region until October 1, 1872 to choose between emigrating to France or remaining in the region and having their nationality legally changed to German. About 161,000 people, i.e., around 10.4% of the residents of Alsace-Lorraine, opted for French citizenship (the so-called Optanden); however, only about 50,000 actually emigrated, while the rest acquired German citizenship


>>2050576

I admit, I dislike the thought of cultural homogenisation and those free trade agreements currently being negotiated over.
I would understand your point if you said you see the concept of a nation state as the perfect way of living together.
Still, it is simply not the starting point. Countries formed through compromise. Be it that the territorries and their people(s) were conquered and assimilated forcefully or merged together peacefully, people had to assimilate and adapt. Always, as soon as they were more than one family

My point is that almost nobody inside Europe wants to lose his culture and see his country merged into an superstate only coherent to federalist bureaucrats.
The biggest proponents of this idea either don't live here or expect to rule over.

>>
>>2050817
I agree, cultural sensibility is something the bureaucratic system doesn't quite grasp.
Two things, though:
Cultural assmilation and cultural change don't stop at borders and also doesn't take very much time anymore in this digitalised and globalised world. I can imagine that containing one nationality or keeping its culture 'clean' will become increasingly difficult in the future. Change doesn't only come from above, but mostly from within.

I think the question that needs to be asked is, what's the least artificial form of gathering these people in a society, what comes most natural and goes against reality the least?
So, in this regard, yes, I must admit, a European superstate doesn't represent reality at all.
But I also think that time won't turn back, nationality will and already has become less and less important.
It is already artificial to a lot of people when they are told to keep to their own cultural group when they choose a partner to have children with, for example.

German troops were absolytly terrified by French partisans in the few places they occupied
No way they could have occupied the whole country
The Rape of Belgium in WW1 was a pre-emptive action against partisans caused by the shock the German army experienced in 1871

Most of Latin America was ruined by freemasons who, inspired by France, established anticlerical, statist regimes. Everything French Radicals spent the entire 20th century trying to do but got stopped by Catholics was done here decades before.

It got worst in the 20th century. You French are smart, I can't deny that. You invent terrible ideas, spread them around the world, they do their damage, but you never apply these ideas on yourselves. You gave us Le Corbusier, he proposed to destroy Paris, you never did it, but Latin American architects inspired by him ruined our cities. You gave us Foucault and his retarded political ideas that you never applied, but we did in our universities and institutions.

You gave scientific racism to the Germans through Gobineau, you gave them nationalism, you gave them statism and centralism (before the XIXth century the Germans were actually known as a laid-back, fun-loving people), and when they mixed everything and created the disasters known as Prussia and Nazism, you pretend it's exclusively their fault.
>>
>>2051305
And you are doing it again. Who invented the concept of an European Union and globalism? Alexandre Kojève. Who invented modern multiculturalism and anti-racism? SOS Racisme was originally a French NGO.

You can blame Germans for being easily impressionable, but not for coming up with these bad ideas.

France just hasn't that suffered from the war as other European countries. In Germany almost all towns (excluding gery little towns) were destroyed during the war.

Mate I can realise why saying stuff like "Hitler "loved muslim cock" and "G*rmans are cucks that always loved Islam" is stupid without comparing it to Napoleon. However the quotes have an entirely different nature (assuming they're real quotes). Hitler is praising Islam as a religion, Napoleon is praising Mohamed as a soldier and conqueror, in a similar way he loved Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar
