Why did French nationalism result in strong hostility toward Germany?

Asked by LatoshaMehr189

Answer (2)

French nationalism resulted in hostility with Germany because they tried to regain the Imperial Territory of Alsace-Lorraine that was taken by Germany after the Franco-Prussian War.

French nationalism led to strong hostility toward Germany due to the loss of Alsace-Lorraine after the Franco-Prussian War, differing definitions of nationalism, historical rivalries, militarization, and a desire for revenge. These factors created a cycle of resentment and mistrust between the two nations.
