Who would win a war between Britain and France?

I absolutely agree with this statement

Nice to see there are still smart people around

Dear Student Roomers,

Britain and France have a long history of fighting against eachother. Then there was the Entente Cordiale thing. But relations between the two countries seem to be at a big low point again. And I wonder who would win an actual war these days between Britain and France.

Britain would win because France is all cowards

i think britain would win because we are cool and france smells like cheese

Britain without a doubt at sea. They were the most powerful navy in the world at that time and thus France were not a match in the long run. Even Germany, an aspired naval power at that time thanks to the German Naval Laws, couldn't defeat Britain in World War I and lost the maritime battles.

What makes you say that? We both have *relatively* comparable naval power these days after all.

First of all everything is a speculation in the presence. No one can't say what would have happened when France and Great Britain at that time would had battled with each other. But in time of imperialism and world war I, the UK was the strongest navy by far compared to the French. Here is a table in comparison! that is why I think, if a battle between these nations came true at sea, UK would had won it. That is my conclusion by reading such statistics.

Nostalgia, UK invested way too much in cutbacks and crap boats, EU & NATO would floor us (yea like they'll take Engerlands side)
