I humbly accept the French and British Alliance with open arms and believe that to further enhance our own countries a strong friendship will bond between us.

[i]I hope for a future where every French citizen will know English and every Englishman know French.
When a Doctor in England may spread their wisdom to France and a French inventor can expand his creative mind in Britain.
Whilst London dines on French wine, Paris will enjoy Scottish whiskey.
Like siblings we have fought but, just like siblings, we forgive and band together. [/I]

I name this friendship
[i] La Fédération Française de Grande-Bretagne (FFGB)[/I]
[I]The French Federation of Great Britain (FFGB)[/I]

As the pleas for the US to begin negotiations continue to be ignored I fear war is imminent.
France is prepared to fight by the Confederates and the British.
I only hope the USA sees sense in what it is doing.
