I was thinking about this the other day.... with Remembrance Sunday and my own family fighting and being killed at the Somme
Beginning with the French invasion of Normandy 1202 and ending with the exile of Napoleon in 1815. The French and the British have been at war 23 separate times. We've fought in 130 of the total 613 years during that period.
Obviously the "Big 2" - Wars with Germany in the past 100 years or so as well... i acknowledge they were World Wars, but still
Then there is the Empire stuff with the French helping America, etc, etc
