  • @TheTollFace So yes, we can say that France is part of the invention of the white flag. ;-)

  • @TheTollFace In 1899, the first war convention at The Hague, a surrending flag was created. To kill forever the dream of some crazy stupids french fools to go back with monarchy and a white flag, France pushed the white flag option...

  • @TheTollFace The white flag was the french war flag before 1789. The color of the king's flag was blue, but the color of the army flag was white. From 1789 to 1815, the white flag was the flag of the enemys of the French Revolution. They took the war flag as symbol, because they were at war against the Revolution. Those bastards won, and the white flag was the official french flag from 1815 to 1830. After the 1830 revolution, the blue-white-red was back and stayed.

  • @iamgig9876 The first recorded (successfull ;-) transfusion : june 15th, 1667 by Jean Baptiste Denis. But he can say thank you to William Harvey (british), the first serious physician about blood (1628). Ader's planeS (with an S) were successful, but not enough for the army. They stopped to pay for the research and classified the all thing "Secret defense" (now unclassified, of course). For the first use of antibiotics (late XIXth century), check Ernest Duchesne.

  • @teamwork1productions that was the mens bikini faggot...

  • @NFL9475 Richard Lower a British physician invented Transfusion in 1655, Aders Plane was unsuccesful, antibiotics were discovered nto by french. But Photography, Cars, Canning, Trousers, and surrendering are all french

  • How about gallium?

  • @ThePiouuuuu Our economy is more stable than yours and we aren't as fucking lazy and corrupt as you are. And what has an army got to do with things these days?
