Abstract

France was a great power in modern Europe and the world. During the First World War, France’s world status was weakened. But in Europe, France’s position was not weakened, but was greatly strengthened by the defeat of Germany and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This not only greatly improved France’s political and economic status in Europe, but also made it the most powerful military power in Europe. But only five or six years later, France began to lose this advantage, and soon after the Second World War broke out, it was destroyed by Germany. The historical process of France’s transformation from superiority to inferiority during the two world wars is certainly multi-faceted, but from a diplomatic perspective, its historical lessons are worth learning today.
