@TheCesspitt I spoke about state conflicts of course, like a war between France and Germany, or between England and Spain, or France vs Austrian Empire, wars that occured every 10 years for centuries
I don't think we can sum up all european conflicts as a matter wars between ethnic groups, as i don't really see the ethnic difference when Sweden and Norway were at war, or when German states were at war with Austria for exemple...
@skiteufr Furthermore, the last action of the war was when the French invaded the pescadores islands, beating the chinese and black flag armies. We made sure the chinese would agree the peace treaty and pay money in occupying the islands, which was done after
The Chinese try to find little glory for modern political reasons, in a war they were largely dominated by a western power
@KuhoinX The sino French war ended in French victory
The French hammered the chinese on land and sea (Fuzhou) and the French were largely outnumbered
The only real "defeat" of the French came at 2nd Lang sou, where the command ordered an unecessary retreat. The scale of the retreat was largely exagerated in France, used by opposition parties to regain power at the parliament. In reality, the French remained in possession of much of the strategic tonkin places
The Sino France war actually ended with French defeat on the battlefield but the Chinese government at that time was such a pussy and corrupted that they would go signed a disgraceful treaty with France. Thank god those stupid Manchurians were overthrown
@skiteufr
a conflict between peoples is a conflict involving ethnic groups.
the franco-prussian war was a war fought mainly between the french and the prussians.
a conflict between asians and arabs would be a conflict involving people as well. asians and arabs are people as well as members of an ethnic group.

@BarackObamaFor2012 So it would be a conflict between peoples my friend, not an ethnic conflict
In my view, an ethnic conflict would be a war between whites and blacks, or between asians and arabs for exemple

@skiteufr
state conflicts also equal ethnic conflicts.
a conflict between america and france would be a conflict between americans and french people.

@skiteufr And ethnicity was not a main casus belli in european wars, it was more to conquer territories, or impose its power on its neighboor
