Franco-German enmity
Franco-German enmity was the idea that French people and German people could never have good relations and the idea started in the 16th century but became popular during the Franco-Prussian War.[1] It became more popular during the end of the World War I and the start of World War II and started to fade at the end of World War II, when both West Germany and France joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) due to the Cold War.[2][3][1]
