The French have long been fans of America, Americans, and American culture.

We really ought to appreciate them for being the longest-term, allies we’ve had.

Morocco is a strong contender for our longest-term ally. They were the first to recognize the U.S.(1777)and allowed American ships access to their ports. I believe our 1786 Treaty of Friendship is the longest running treaty in our history.
