The big ass war over in Europe (the one that leaked into America with a series of military attacks called King George’s War) has come to an end with the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle.
The A-L-C stated that Maria Theresa, who sparked the war, only had to give up the territory of Silesia to Prussia. Besides that, everything basically ended in status-quo-ante-bellum or, for those of you who speak English, the normal state of things before the war.
While everyone is pretty happy with this arrangement, the people of France are NOT.
SHOCKER. We thought the French were such happy people!!!! LOL.
Despite Louis XV of France’s victories in the war, he has given up everything he conquered to Austria because he’s happy with the land he already rules. Everyone in Europe thinks this is nice of him, but his own people are PISSED. They feel like they worked hard and got nothing out of it.
Cheer up, France. Go eat a baguette and cry into your champagne… you’ll feel better.
Ha!
Get over it, bb! Women should have equal rights, too!!!!
In Europe, the War of the Austrian Succession started when the Holy Royal Emperor, Charles VI, passed away and his daughter, Maria Theresa, succeeded his place on the throne. France doesn’t believe a woman should be in power, so they’ve been fighting to overthrow her. England, on the other hand, actually has a brain and has been fighting to keep her there.
Now the war has moved across the Atlantic in a series of military operations being called King George’s War. French and English colonies are murdering the crap out of each other, but it’s too soon to tell who is winning.
Who knew France would be SO threatened by a vagina!
What do U think?? Should women be in power?????
