→Frankland under Clovis
==Frankland under Clovis==
==Frankland under Clovis==
France is named after the Franks, a Saxon tribe who established Soissons, the capital. A Frank called [[Clovis]] united the Franks and established Frankland. Franks were pagans but Clovis converted to Christianity (legend has it he prayed to Christ during a difficult battle, offering to become a Christian in exchange for victory ; shortly after that, the enemy fled).

==Boycott of the French==
Americans are currently boycotting all things French because of their refusal to follow orders and go to Iraq, french fries, french toast, and french bread have been banned in America as a result of the French's actions.
