In the dawn of the 18th century, France is one of Europe's major powers. The Kingdom of France is ruled by an absolute monarch who has the authority to elect or dismiss his ministers at will. While the nobility may be content with the current situation, the lower classes are not, and the latter may attempt to get rid of their King and his regime once and for all. The Thirty Years War has weakened the German states and the [[Austria (ETW Faction)|Habsburg Empire]] considerably, and France is currently regarded as the dominant power in Western Europe. The French also conquered Alsace not long ago, and their country is rich and powerful. Furthermore, French troops have conquered a large amount of lands in America. The whole Mississippi valley along with Quebec in the north are currently under French rule. Last but not least, The Kingdom of France has acquired some land in South America which could possibly serve as a base for future campaigns.

In conclusion, France is a strong faction with important and powerful allies such as [[Spain (ETW Faction)|Spain]]. The Catholic nation owns many colonies in the Americas and boasts both a powerful navy and army. Unfortunately for the French, Great Britain poses a major threat. The [[Great Britain (ETW Faction)|Great Britain]] navy is still the strongest in the world and may be a danger for the French kingdom. Furthermore, [[Austria (ETW Faction)|Austria]] will surely be looking to regain its dominance in Europe and has certainly not forgotten of its past wars and various conflicts with France. Lastly, the Italian States at the southern French border are a powder keg and have the ability cause a lot of trouble for the kingdom. France is a country with many opportunities but also many possible enemies. And who knows for how long the ordinary man on the street will accept having no say at all in his country's politics?

France has had fifty years of military and administrative excellence under Louis XIV, the Sun King and his servants. They achieved this in spite of a backdrop of strife and rebellion sparked by France’s involvement in the Thirty Years War. Louis and his able ministers, Cardinals Richelieu and Mazarin, were able to steer France away from the feudal struggles that hampered growth, and they created a centralised government where the King’s power is absolute.
 +
In 1700, France is the pre-eminent power in Western Europe, with an unrivalled army, vast colonies and a King who is respected and feared by all, both at home and abroad. Few nations pose any real threat to his well-equipped armies and heavily fortified borders.
 +
 
 +
The French Bourbon dynasty is strong, even though Louis XIV is aging. There are sons and relations aplenty, with legitimate claims to many titles. To the south, the lack of a Hapsburg heir in Spain – and the feeble-mindedness of Charles II – means that a Bourbon could one day rule in Madrid. A course of action that brings this about has much to recommend it. Of course, not all offshoots of the Hapsburg line are weak as their Spanish cousins. The Austrian Habsburgs, and other European nations, may not be entirely willing to see a Frenchman or French nominee as King of Spain. No matter.
 +
 
 +
France is surrounded by possibilities, and beyond Europe there are other continents to conquer and colonise: New France in North America, and the riches of India. The untrustworthy British may have to be swept aside or crushed, but what is wrong with that?

France's major strengths are its unique artillery pieces, the guard artillery. France can build 18-pounder horse guard artillery, a substantial improvement over the standard 6-pounders. France can also recruit 24-pounder guard artillery, upgrades over regular 24-pounders with superior accuracy and reload times. In the campaign, the French do not have access to regular 24 pounders, forcing them to rely on 12-pounders for most of their foot artillery firepower. The French field good cavalry and excellent line infantry (3rd best after Britain and Prussia); in particular, it fields Chevaux-Leger cavalry, lancers with inferior melee stats but superior charge bonuses. France also has the opportunity to train a variety of unique, more expensive, and higher quality line infantry such as the Swiss Guard, Petite-Vieux infantry, Royal Eccosais, Regiments Etrangers, and Infanterie Vieux.

France starts the game with regions in both the European and the American theatre. In Europe, the French own France and its capital, Paris, along with Alsace-Lorraine and the province's capital, Strasbourg. In America, the French control several regions and also have a protectorate which can become part of the French kingdom after completing a specific mission. The French colonies border the Iroquois Confederacy and the 13 British Colonies. The Kingdom does not hold any provinces in the Indian Theater.

In the European Theater, France borders both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. They are bordered by the Kingdom of Spain in the south, and Flanders, a Spanish province, in the north. Furthermore, France borders Württemberg in Central Europe and Savoy in the southeast. Across the English Channel lies France's biggest rival, the United Kingdom.

France fields a typical western European army, similar to that of its surrounding states. The faction's army consists of units such as line infantry, heavy infantry, hussars, chevaux légers, and militia. France has very well trained artillery crews, guard artillery units have better accuracy and morale. Later on, the French gain access to other, more advanced units such as guards and household cavalry. If a power-class revolution succeeds, with the Absolute Monarchy giving its place to a Republic as a result, France will be able to train weak conscript units as well. The French army consists of very strong soldiers which are generally well-trained. One example would be the kingdom's line infantry which has a higher accuracy and firing rate over other units of the same type.

France is one of the 11 playable nations in Empire: Total War's Grand Campaign. It is also a major faction in the game.

Overview

Monarchy Republic

France has had fifty years of military and administrative excellence under Louis XIV, the Sun King and his servants. They achieved this in spite of a backdrop of strife and rebellion sparked by France’s involvement in the Thirty Years War. Louis and his able ministers, Cardinals Richelieu and Mazarin, were able to steer France away from the feudal struggles that hampered growth, and they created a centralised government where the King’s power is absolute. In 1700, France is the pre-eminent power in Western Europe, with an unrivalled army, vast colonies and a King who is respected and feared by all, both at home and abroad. Few nations pose any real threat to his well-equipped armies and heavily fortified borders.

The French Bourbon dynasty is strong, even though Louis XIV is aging. There are sons and relations aplenty, with legitimate claims to many titles. To the south, the lack of a Hapsburg heir in Spain – and the feeble-mindedness of Charles II – means that a Bourbon could one day rule in Madrid. A course of action that brings this about has much to recommend it. Of course, not all offshoots of the Hapsburg line are weak as their Spanish cousins. The Austrian Habsburgs, and other European nations, may not be entirely willing to see a Frenchman or French nominee as King of Spain. No matter.

France is surrounded by possibilities, and beyond Europe there are other continents to conquer and colonise: New France in North America, and the riches of India. The untrustworthy British may have to be swept aside or crushed, but what is wrong with that?

Details

France's major strengths are its unique artillery pieces, the guard artillery. France can build 18-pounder horse guard artillery, a substantial improvement over the standard 6-pounders. France can also recruit 24-pounder guard artillery, upgrades over regular 24-pounders with superior accuracy and reload times. In the campaign, the French do not have access to regular 24 pounders, forcing them to rely on 12-pounders for most of their foot artillery firepower. The French field good cavalry and excellent line infantry (3rd best after Britain and Prussia); in particular, it fields Chevaux-Leger cavalry, lancers with inferior melee stats but superior charge bonuses. France also has the opportunity to train a variety of unique, more expensive, and higher quality line infantry such as the Swiss Guard, Petite-Vieux infantry, Royal Eccosais, Regiments Etrangers, and Infanterie Vieux.

Starting Position

France starts the game with regions in both the European and the American theatre. In Europe, the French own France and its capital, Paris, along with Alsace-Lorraine and the province's capital, Strasbourg. In America, the French control several regions and also have a protectorate (Louisiana) which can become part of the French Empire after completing the assigned mission. The French colonies border the Iroquois Confederacy and the 13 British Colonies. France does not possess any colonies in the Indian theatre. France has a college at Orleans and a gentlemen near it. France also has some excellent ministers and the best starting monarch in the game, Louis XIV. However, Louis is quite old and it won't be long before he is replaced by his ineffectual son, Louis XV.

In Europe, France borders both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. They are bordered by the Kingdom of Spain in the south, and Flanders, a Spanish province, in the north. Furthermore, France borders Württemberg in Central Europe and Savoy in the southeast. Across the English Channel lies France's bitter rival, Great Britain. France is allies with the Spanish in the beginning, meaning that its position is actually quite secure. France has relatively powerful navies in the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, allowing it to take the fight to the Barbary States and Britain if it chooses to.

In the Americas: France has a unique advantage no other playable nation possesses: they have a major city. This means that with proper investment, France has immediate access to almost the full roster of units with which to complete their mission in the Americas, and beyond.

France faces quite a lot of civil unrest as the game progresses and (as is historically appropriate) may become a republic, in which case it will receive massive relations penalties with most of the other European nations and potentially make an enemy out of its longtime ally, Spain.
