and tears french di colonization states with dental washing. ah ah, it took over 400 years for the french to build and maintain their vast empire. but the whole structure came tumbling down in the space of a quarter of a century. france swam against the tide of history and tried to keep hold of its colonies by whatever means possible. but by the mid 20th century, that position was no longer sustainable.

this is the story of the collapse of one of the biggest fin pies. the world has ever seen of the blood. and tears sheds then ends now and of the lasting impacted switch. and it's violent and still have on the world today. ah, on the 6th of may 1931. the international colonial exhibition opened in paris. it was a huge celebration of the french empire,

across the empire, the colonizers were firmly in charge of injustice and inequality had few means of redress. regimes were authoritarian, and among the millions, living under colonial rule, only a few elected officials had the right to vote. and the widespread use of force labor underpins the whole system ah, a powerful symbol of this exploitation of labor was the construction of the congo ocean railway opened in 1934. i tuned auto colonial. also
