Franco-British Union

The Franco-British Union refers to a proposed political union between France and Britain, particularly in the context of the Dual Monarchy concept. This idea emerged during the late 19th and early 20th centuries when both nations sought closer ties, especially in response to common threats like German expansion. Advocates envisioned a cooperative alliance, merging certain governance aspects while maintaining national identities. Although the proposal gained some interest, it never materialized due to national sentiments, differing political systems, and strategic interests. Ultimately, the idea remains a historical curiosity highlighting the potential for deeper Franco-British relations.
