[[File:De Gaulle-OWI.jpg|thumb|Charles de Gaulle]]
'''Charles de Gaulle''' (1890-1970) was the dominant military and political leader of [[France]], 1940-1969. He was a conservative in the traditionalist sense, and helped restore the leadership of conservatives and Catholics while weakening the Communists and socialists. He was notoriously hostile to the "Anglo-Saxons" (that is the British and the Americans), and pulled France out of the NATO military command, while maintaining political ties with the alliance.
