French-spanish rivalry is a purely Spanish concept.
Haha similar to how Canadians believe there is an issue with people from the United States.
It because they are jalous 😜 of our suoeriority 😂😂😂
not really
Exacly
@@gavinstuart6704why do you say that ?
It’s actually amazing how this « rivalry » is one sided. I’m French and Spain never occurred to me as a « rival » (England, Germany historically and Italy for sport yes). We don’t even know this « the Spanish hate the French » thing 😂
One side? I still rememeber Rafa Nadal playing in Roland Garros at the beggining of his career and came on men, the french crowd absolutlty hate him, even in some fr3nch tv shows in Canal+ made fun of him.
@@wallyfog270 Maybe because Roland Garros is not France ?

¿En serio?

I'm French and I think it's a little bit weird how Spanish people think French people look down on them because we actually really love them as well as their culture. And I think I can confindently say that most of French people do not see themselves better that Spanish people or think that our country is better. Both countries are just so different in my opinion and they just have their own charms, they're not really comparable I think. Anyway love from France ❤
Merci. Il y a des Espagnols qui sont devenus coincés, obsolètes dans leurs croyances du passé.
its not France as a whole its mostly due to parisians or stupid teenagers getting and vandalising public property in here
you are still way better than the stereorypical brittish karen tho
Ils disent qu'on les méprise, mais toutes les personnes dans la vidéo nous ch***nt a la gueule lol...
ah shut up
I am French and nobody in France would ever say "oh I don't like the Spaniards" it would almost sound ridiculous.
French people have a very high view of Spain and Spanish people, maybe beside its economy and its government but those things are irrelevant when it comes to assessing one's relationship to a foreign country.
Yes, bien sûr...🤣🤣🤣 French people hate us....that's the truth
It’s curious that you mention economy and government, as both tend to be rather on par today. But it’s true that somehow French still have a negative view of it.
if you are French you have to realise that Parisians live in France. You guys are a meme to the rest of the world probably because of them., Just live with it
@Calabacita85 I don't think people have the attitude anymore... it's a little ironic since there seems to be way more AFRICA in France rather than Spain.
Southwest France like Spain, a lot of people have spanish origins and we also learn it in college / high school
Interesting. As a French man I always loved Spain and Spaniards. But I love how the guy who said “I don’t like French people” ends with “les mecs, venez, on a tout ici”😂
The French people have great confidence, which sometimes comes across as arrogant. But once you get to know a few really well, they can be lots of fun. And be prepared to debate everything!😅
Hmm I kind of disagree. Most people in the world don't really like the french because they are just arrogant and not confident.
You can be confident and likable but french people are just arrogant and rude.
I'm from belgium and in my country we have half the people who speak dutch and half the people who speak french and it's exactly the same thing here.
Most people don't like the french speaking people in belgium, because they have the same habits and arrogance as french people.
a few french presidents and especially last one are worst than arrogant / they are a shame for us on TV
the "historic rivalry" between spain and france is very much one sided tbh. french people love spain and generally have a good opinion of spaniards. the rivalry in sports is real though
Aujourd'hui, nous sommes dans le même bateau, nous sommes une île dans le monde, menacée par la Chine, les États-Unis, le mondialisme, l'immigration de masse, etc.
They like the spaniards but still look down the spaniards
@@ehjo4904 I`ve never felt "looked down" in my many travels to France. On the contrary, the French were always courteous, and even kind to me. And ignorant ultra nationalist Spaniards "look down" on French just the same.
@@lauramartin-bk9nr " look down " does not mean hate. But they do not take the spaniards seriously
@@9grand I know English, and of course the meaning of that expression, and again you generalize and you are wrong. If that were the case Manuel Valls, Hidalgo, Goya, Balenciaga, Paco Rabanne, Luis Buñuel, Dali, Picasso, or even in the banal world of sports Luis Fernández, Florentino Pérez and Real Madrid, Luis Enrique, etc, etc., and other Spaniards or French of SpanIsh descent would not have been taken seriously. Btw, research Spaniards in the French Resistance, and "La Nueve", the Batallion that liberated Paris.
I'm from Irun, a Spanish bordering city with France and I know well the French. Maybe because when you cross a river things don't change drastically, but South-Western French people are some of the warmest you will find in the world and share the Spanish "la familia lo es todo" way of life.
If I had to tell a difference I'd mention the hours of meals from one side. From the other side, the humour and jokes change drastically. On the Spanish side sarcasm is the most popular resource to make someone laugh and Spanish humour can arrive to be very-very dark. On the French side humour tends to be Ironic and a little dark.
Coming from a french girl living in Euskal Herra, it’s always a pleasure when I talk with my siblings from Irun o San Sebastian :)

Soy frances y he vivido 3 anos en Barcelona, y nunca he sido mal recibido por ser frances, al contrario siempre los espanoles me trataron muy bien, los espanoles son muy abiertos y eso ayuda bastante para integrarse. Fuera del deporte no creo que hay rivalidad entre los 2 paises, al menos del lado frances no hay ninguna, os queremos mucho. Nuestro "rival" de toda la vida siempre fue Inglaterra, pero es historia ahora. Adeuuu
A los franceses los queremos y respetamos, sobre todo en el norte de España. El camino FRANCÉS de Santiago es la base de España y os lo debemos a vosotros, amigos franceses.
I am French and honestly there is no rivalry between France and Spain, I would even say that Spain and the Spanish people are very appreciated in France, Spain must certainly be one of the most appreciated European countries for French people. The only rivalry might be Football and Basketball between our 2 countries, but it's a really not mean and respectful rivalry. Sorry for my bad english. Love Spain and spanish people From France
I find French and Spanish people are far more comfortable with expressing opinions then say for example the British who are too afraid of “offending” someone..
Totally. My gf is brit and cancel culture in England is way too oppressive. She's often afraid of expressing her thoughts regarding some more controversi topics bc of the fear of offending someone.
@@joellopes3934 its refreshing going abroad where people speak more freely.

He said he went to the french school in Madrid. If he did all the colège's period it's from 10-11 to 14-15 years old. And i'm not sure you can get in that school if you dont have a good level of french or have someone in your familly that could help you.

As a french, i've always be amused by spanish people imagining a kind of rivalry between France and Spain.... when historically, economically, culturally France has always been in confrontation with Germany, England or Italy.... not really Spain. I've got a lot of spanish friends and i like their qualities and weaknesses. We're more close than they believe.
Confrontation with UK and Germany ok, but Italy ?

Turcos en Europa, auxiliados por Francia para menoscabar la posición de España.
Apoyo actual a Marruecos.
Bailén y Pepe Botella.
"las pasiones agitadas con motivo de la Guerra Civil Española volvieron a abrir viejas heridas, al convertirse Francia en una base firme de propaganda y otras actividades intervencionistas en favor de uno de los beligerantes.
La importancia de estos antagonismos históricos en el desarrollo de la Leyenda Negra es indudable, y por ello, sólo necesita un ligero comentario. Las intensas rivalidades y enfrentamientos militares hispano-franceses durante la primera mitad del siglo XVI y posteriores, convirtió a Francia en un centro natural de actividades antiespañolas. La primera amenaza extranjera digna de mención contra España en el Nuevo Mundo, del tipo de piratería, se lanzó desde los puertos de Bretaña. Más tarde, la literatura de viajes y el liderato francés en la Ilustración del siglo XVIII, tuvieron una enorme importancia en el endurecimiento del desdén general europeo y aun del odio hacia España y los españoles. Desde el siglo XVII hasta nuestros días, la hegemonía cultural francesa en el Continente y en las Américas puso, inter alia, su indiscutible sello de aprobación a los prejuicios antiespañoles."
(Árbol de odio, Philip Wayne Powell).

@@zisssssouprobably because the Spain-France rivalry was at the beginning of modern era, when Spain was on it's golden age. After that, France had other enemies while Spain was falling.

No me cabe la menor duda, pero hay que reconocer que algunos parisinos, especialmente, son para cogerlos con pinzas.
Este es el problema. Los extranjeros creen que París = Francia. París o las grandes ciudades son mundos específicos. Ven a ver el mar o el campo en Normandía, la gente es amable. Yo mismo soy originario de Normandía y me gusta mucho ver a los extranjeros. Vemos diferentes puntos de vista.

1:42 i love this guy, clever 👍
I'm French and I'm appalled by what I saw, I never ever heard any french speak ill of Spain or Spaniards, in fact, we love Spain and fantasize a lot about its culture, yes we do call them "Espingouins" just like they call us Gabachos, but it's all fun, the only things we look down on is Desigual and let's be honest: the quality of their agriculture which is unfortunately extremely pesticide-heavy.
For me it is the same thing I have never heard any negativity from anyone about Spain. The only thing I ever saw was BBC Two Fawlty Towers where Basil becomes xenophobic and insults his employee Manuel. The other one where Catalans insist they are not Spaniards and want to leave.
That is the only negative things I've ever heard in my lifetime.
In reality French have good press in Spain. I love France for its beauty and culture and so does every Spaniard I know.

@@lauramartin-bk9nr
Tú no eres española...
Sebastián Covarrubias, en su Tesoro de la Lengua Castellana o Española (1611); dice:
"Gavacho: Existen unos pueblos en Francia, que confinan con la provincia de Narbona.
Strabon y Plinio los llaman gabales, Caesar gabalos. A éstos Belteforestio les denominaba gavachus y nosotros gavachos.
Esta tierra debe de ser mísera, porque muchos de estos gavachos se vienen a España y se ocupan de servicios bajos y viles, y se enfrentan cuando los llaman gavachos. Con todo eso vuelven a su tierra con muchos dineros y para ellos son buenas Indias los reinos de España".
Decidle al que hace los subtítulos que tenga más cuidado con la diferencia entre "a" y "ha"
Soy Español/Americano y orgulloso de serlo. Me encanta que España tenga sus regiones tan marcadamente diferentes, con cuatro idiomas, y mucho más. Lo único que me gusta más de Francia son las comunidades Católicas porque son unas verdaderas joyas. Quién Lo supiera? Pero, és así.
That’s actually surprising to hear. It’s rare to hear about the very niche but absolutely incredible, bustling traditional Catholic communities in France. (FSSPX, FSSP, IBP…)
@@rowanwild8445 It's funny you should mention those....they must be even better than the ones I saw! Hahaha!
Soy francés y viví en España por mis estudios y hay un valor que compartimos con los españoles: el chovinismo. Después de los franceses, los españoles son las personas más orgullosas que he visto en mi vida. Un español me dijo que los croissants españoles eran mejores que los franceses, come on tio !! 😅
Gran verdad, pero los españoles cultos:) amamos Francia. De vosotros vienen por el Camino francés de santiago el Románico y el Gótico, Cluny y el Císter y la conexión con el resto de Europa occidental en la lucha de la Reconquista contra el Islam. Somos Europa gracias en gran medida a la influencia cultural de los reinos de Francia (por ejemplo, Navarra tuvo dinastías francesas de los Capeto y de la Casa de Foix) y también a la gran entrada de franceses, los llamados "francos" en las Crónicas medievales, en las repoblaciones de la Reconquista.
a 1200 kms de Francia, aquí abrieron un obrador que hacía cruasanes tan buenos como los franceses. También es verdad que el chaval se llamaba Thibaud y era de Touluosse...

Importante : No hablo muy bien espanol, pero hago esfuerzos para hablar este idoma, y me disculpo para hablar lo como... un Frances ! Soy jubilado ahora, pero cuando trabaje, ayude muchas estudiantes espanoles en el laboratorio.

Oui, je veux pratiquer mon français parlé qui peut être amélioré:)
in France, we don't like anybody. We just don't care. We don't wanna be loved, u already love us.
"We just don't care." As a French myself, that's the best description that you can make of French people. We don't care about our neighboring countries, we just mind our own business.
That is a good attitute. Countries that strive to be liked lack self esteem.
I think that there is a few exceptions like we love Belgium but we can't say it ofc. And we admire Germany but we believe we complet them like they have a good economy we have a good army, they have good organization we have good jokes...
Es por el MEME, meterse con los franceses con el paso del tiempo se ha convertido casi en una costumbre, pero ojo, que yo todavía me acuerdo cuando paraban a los camiones para tirar la fruta.
no, no es por un meme, siempre ha habido rivalidad entre nosotros, al igual que Grecia - Turquía, Irlanda - R.U, Hungría - Rumanía, y demás países de la U.E, los franceses siempre miran x encima del hombro, pero nosotros somos mejores q ellos y lo saben

@@a-jerk No hay rivalidad, porque una rivalidad es de igual a igual, y no es el caso. Mira, puedes hacer una analogía con la relación entre España y Portugal. Uno se cree más que el otro, y el otro le tiene rencor por ello.

Francia no mira a España, es un vecino simpático pero nunca le van a considerar como un rival, ellos miran a Alemania e Inglaterra. Es una historia universal.

Hahah omg I am French and living in Madrid. All what is said is sooo true and gives a good idea of our image in Spanish people minds.
It’s true we do have such a high view of ouselves, economics, agriculture, culture, food, rights etc…
But I think we love Spanish people much more than they like us 😂 Spain is cheaper, has more Sun more playa more siesta more fiesta. Plus the people are more friendly. That’s the best neighbour a country could dream of right? ❤
And It’s so funny that the French occupation of Spain is so present in the Spanish culture/mind, because I’m not even sure that French people know we actually tried to invade Spain!! That’s how we are, if we failed at it, we just forget it as it doesn’t match with our high opinion of ourselves 😅
But yeah sorry guys but we do have the best croissants 😉
in the north east of Spain most love France and are over Napoleon. I think the memory of Napoleon is more present in Madrid. But in Madrid you have a huge Franch influence: the Royal Academies in the French tradition, the Prado Museum and the Royal Palace in Neoclassical french style, many 19th century buildings in Paris style, etc.

We forgot it because there was nothing at stake for us. Justine we forgot about casually conquering Europe : that is a page of history but there was nothing vital for us from today's point of view.
The invasion of Spain was not a major part of France’s history. That’s why it don’t get talked much. France has come across so much through history, people can just not be taught about everything. Just like for instance, most French people are totally unaware about Spain’s attempt to invade France in 1643. French people would have just way too much to learn if they had to learn everything about their history. Same for people from most countries. People get taught the major events and then it’s up to them to look out for it if they want to learn more.
I, as a spaniard, sincerely think that the "hate" to the french is more than a joke than something serious. It's something that we like to hate. Like we hate, as a resident of the canary islands, the people of other islands, but we join in the hate against what we call the "goths" (people of mainland spain). The same occurs with the French. Our peoples join forces against Perfidious Albion!!
Soy Francés. Me encanta España.
por cierto, deberíamos hablar de Españas.
porque cada región tiene una identidad muy fuerte .
Im French and i have never heard about this rivalry with Spanish! French tend to compete with Germans,British ( economy,industry) or italians( food, art, culture,fashion).
People here talk of Spain only when it comes to holiday or football.
As a french, the only negative thing i heard of Spain is how they drive violently compared to us.
We have many things to learn and imitate from France, such as driving and the preservation of historical heritage.

I'm a french from the spanish border, in the Pyrenees. Outside the football field, everyone likes Spain and spaniards there and same cannot be said for Italy. We also often learn Spanish.
Hey! I’m Spaniard from the western French border Hehe. I agree with you, I never felt nothing negative about Frenchies to Spain at all, as I don’t see almost differences between us, France for me I feel like home, more than a lot of parts from Spain in fact.🤷🏻♂️PD: please we need some French enterprise trying flan patissier here, it s the first thing I buy every time i cross the border.
It's true in the Pyrenees the spirit and mentality is completely different than the other parts of France . Sadly most people only know of Paris when talking about France and like they said people are rather cold in the North side 😅 . But when you look at the South it's completely different maybe cause some part of the South is very influenced by Spain and Occitània is viewed differently mostly cause of the past , but you have a huge Spanish community that living there. It seems that the South is rather cool with Spain to the point most French people say a city like Toulouse is the most Spanish city of France .
Maybe because the south had more Roman and Visigothic influence?
Same here, in Navarra. French Medieval architecture, schools, French "barrio" in the Middle Ages, French pilgrim road to Saint-Jacques unites us. With current globalism I realize how much I love France.
@@lauramartin-bk9nr Yes that's true it's indeed very interesting, Basque and navarra are related historically it makes sense why so much people across the boarders share a common history and are somehow related to each other. In France Basque see themselves as Basque and will make sure you know that they Basque, their is for sure some roots between people close to the boarders from each side maybe that's why we are somehow disconnected with the others in our countries .
I though as french Spain had rivalry with Italy or Portugal . Not us maybe during the habsbourg fall and Spanish succession but I guess it is more a link between us than a rivalry
The guy at the end speaks really good french.
It’s funny how Spanish people think they have a rivalry with France while French people don’t even care about Spain, this is One sided and I find it kinda pathetic
They sure do love Spanish bullfighting culture 😱
The french king didn't think the same when he was captive in Madrid after Pavía.

@@albertoperruca9852he French KING 😂😂😂 the average citizen doesn’t even know that France had kings in the past. Ok that’s not true and exaggerated, but just to show how irrelevant your comment is, it’s 2023 not 15XX or 17XX

Spain is indeed amazing, great food, beautiful people, temperature is always nice. France is errrr...yeah France.
@@maskedgamer7565 France also has great food, nice people, nice temperature in the south… France and Spain have a lot of similarities, if you take Andalusia vs Northern France the gap is huge, but the closer you get to the border, the more similar.

What I like about spanish people is that they put themselves out there so easily, they seem don't afraid to speak loud and this is why I want to live in Spain... its coming soon baby. Also spanish girl are the prettiest
It's weird, I'm French and I've never heard of any "rivalry" with our Spanish friends, but maybe I'm misinformed
I agree. In north Spain we mostly don`t have that feeling at all. We are used to contact with France and French people. I think it`s more a thing of ultra nationalists living in the past and little travelled in Madrid and in the south. But even these people have this feeling only at a historical general level, never in individual interactions.

No me imagino a nadie en España diciendo "Buenos días señor, que puedo ofrecerle el día de hoy" (Bonjour monsieur, que puis-je vous offrir aujourd'hui ?) a menos que te vayas a tomar un café en el Ritz. A veces paso verguenza ajena, viendo como los españoles se dirigen a los camareros en un tono que en Francia suena despectivo o humillante y en cambio en España sería completamente normal. Obviamente, si te tratan de humillar, tu te comportas de forma consecuente, lo cual puede ser interpretado como arrogancia. He visto discusiones horribles en cafes y restaurantes, porque los españoles se sienten maltratados cuando en realidad, los franceses reaccionan a una supuesta humillación inicial. Mi recomendación es que si van a Francia, imagínense que están en latinoamérica, sobre todo México. Piensen como los mexicanos se comportan en España y así es que se deben comportar en Francia.
Totalmente de acuerdo.
No estoy nada de acuerdo con usted, porque esta diciendo que los franceses se lo toman como una humillacion cuando usted mismo admite y sabe que no es la intencion de los españoles "en cambio en España sería completamente normal".
Es decir, es solo un mal entendido entre ambas partes, por lo que los españoles no estan tratando mal a nadie y no tiene sentido que sienta verguenza ajena por algo que no esta hecho con mala intencion por parte de los mismos.
@@overvault No veo porque dice que no está de acuerdo conmigo. Lo primero que digo es que es un problema cultural. Los franceses no son conscientes que los españoles actúan de esa manera. Si lee lo que escribí es obvio que estoy de acuerdo con usted de que es un mal entendido. Pero aún así siento mucha vergüenza ajena. Es como cuando los japoneses hacen sonido cuando mastican, soy consciente que en su cultura eso significa que la comida está buena, pero si uno ve eso en un restaurante en el barrio de Salamanca en Madrid se le cae la cara de la vergüenza
I've seen a lot of videos where Spanish people call Northern Europeans (like me) "cold". What exactly do you mean by that? A bit reserved and introverted? Boring and unfriendly? Heartless and devoid of emotions? I have to admit that it stings a bit lol.
Reserved, yes, not so open to other people
Northern people say we shout and talk too much, so we are at peace 😅
I answer you honestly, "you need more passion" it means that you have to let yourself be carried away more by emotions, like when you are here on vacation xd it's like the image people have of engineers, in party we dance and flirt, nothing happens if you fail or you are given bad, that doesn't matter, the important thing is to have fun :) It does not mean that you do not have your wild side, it is just a prejudice that we have of the Germans, do not pay much attention to it, we see each case individually.
I am german and everything you included would fit to "being cold" imo. I dont know about the other countries but for Germany it is actually true unfortunately.
@@israelbaras8237 People working as tourism guides say German people always ask about the measures on everything

It means rational rather than emotinal.
I’m curious what they think about French speaking Belgians ;) the same as about French people or different?

That little boy had the most interesting accent. Can anybody tell me if it's a regional accent?
yes, he's accent is from Andalucia. Greetings from Bilbao!
@@Jon-jn8zx Even more localized! I guess he's from Jaén or Granada. Those 2 provinces have a very distinct accent.
Andalusian
@@BlackHoleSpain I would say Granada but not sure tho.... even for a spaniard like me is a little hard to differentiate the accents sometimes
@@Jon-jn8zx It could be Almeria also, i am from there and sounds quite similar, it is oriental andalusian, thats sure hahaha

Provincial French people often relate to Parisians in a similar way than these Spaniards relate to France. The "hate", "rivalry" and "arrogance" is more one sided than you think, and not the side you expect 😂
Los españoles son los mejores de nuestros vecinos

Yo he ido a Francia desde que tenía 14 años y ahora tengo 48. Viajo allí por negocios y muchos son bastante insoportables, sobre todo con sus aires de superioridad y faltas de respeto. Sobre todo en París, eso es cierto.

Never heard of a Franco/Spanish rivalry.
The only rivalry to the French would be England and Germany i guess. Maybe a little bit Italy also but...yes just a little bit.
I live in Belgium.
Qué pena como perduran los prejuicios... Nunca he oido a franceses hablar mal de España, nunca. Lo que muchos españoles llaman soberbia es, en realidad, reserva. A los franceses no les gusta imponerse y entonces pueden pasar por frios, superiores o distantes. La otra cosa es que los españoles solo tienen 2 o 3 vecinos: Portugal, Francia y Marruecos. Francia siendo el màs poderoso, toda la rabia se dirige hacia ella mientras que Francia tiene 9 paises vecinos, entonces no le importa compararse con los demàs. Creo que España tiene un complejo de inferioridad (injustificado) pero que permite explicar lo que se oye en este documentario.
Bueno, al menos el señor de la gorra decía la verdad: los españoles que tienen información directa sobre Francia dejan atrás los prejuicios propios de ignorantes trasnochados. En Francia hay mayor nivel de lectura que en España y tienen más "mundo" que los españoles que siguen viviendo en el dos de mayo de 1808.
No decir cosas asì, que Francia siempre se comparò con los paises cercanos. Es la normalidad hacerlo.
@@lauramartin-bk9nr Estos comentarios son los mismos que fomentan el desprecio frente a la idea que tienen de los franceses, no hacen más que fomentar la idea ya existente del supuesto complejo de superioridad francés.
Decir "En francia son más inteligentes y los españoles son desadaptados" no va a hacer que los 'ignorantes' dejen de despreciar a la idea que tienen de los franceses.
A lot of French are French/Spanish, ❤
Is it still a Napoleon descendant in spain ?
Il me semble que les Espagnols cultivent un sentiment d'infériorité envers les Français. Sentiment injustifié dans la mesure où les Français, dans leur majorité, aiment l'Espagne et ont une image positive du pays. A noter que le foot n'est pas un sujet de discussion central en France, donc encore moins un sujet de division avec nos voisins.
medio millon de españoles muertos en la guerra napoleonica en la que se intento convertir a españa en una colonia norteafricana y de paso se destruyo absolutamente toda la industria que existia en españa, protestas en contra de que españa entre en la otan y como condicion que ceuta y melilla no entren en el pacto, apoyo a marrruecos por encima de españa en todas las disputas, aislamiento energetico con el resto de europa. tu llamalo "sentimiento de inferioridad" pero la verdad va mucho más alla de eso
@@extrarradioghetto Guerres Napoléoniennes... Tu penses quoi de la relation entre la France et l'Allemagne dans ce cas? L'intelligence c'est de créer la paix entre les peuples et ne pas rester divisés à cause d'erreurs commises il y a plusieurs décénies.
J'ai aucune inferiorité avec aucun pays, aprés visiter plus de 80 pays. J'ai vraiment noté une expression de superiorité des francaises vers nous, que je n'aime pas de tout.
C'est dommage parce que je pense aussi que la plupart des français aiment les autres pays d Europe. Peut etre moins l'Angleterre et encore. On apprend quasiment tous l'espagnol (à différents niveaux). Je suppose que peut être les gens un peu moins conscient et éduqués peuvent paraitre arrogant ou d'autres par leur manière? Mais je n ai pas entendu parler de rivalité avec l Espagne. Juste un peu avec l Italie et le royaume Uni
@@extrarradioghetto passe à autre chose mon ami... Personne n'etait né sous Napoléon... Et vous avez bien eclaté l'Amerique donc ne donnez pas trop de leçons de morale s'il vous plait...
Lol you guys think we are arrogant.. but all the spanish people in this video seem way more proud and arrogant than me and all the french people I know 🤷 look in the mirror maybe ? And if someone asked me what I think of Spanish people, I would just say I like them and they are our neighbors 🤷 you seem to criticize a lot according to that video....

No, France is not southern Europe, is actually both. Northern and southern, then western…
There is absolutely no rivalry between France and Spain, politically or culturally the only rivalry we have is with Germany, we always compare each other since we are the two biggest European power
French loves Spain and the language most french ppl has been at least once in Spain and choose to study Spanish at school (we can choose Spanish or German, and 90% choses Spanish)
French are not nationalistic at all, the opposite, you won't see many french flags everywhere while in Madrid there are flags everywhere, for a french it's a shame to be french and If you're 'proud' of it you are seen as a racist/xenophobic.
I would say that french tend to be colder the more you go north which is a common phenomenon in most countries, probably the case in Spain too
I lived in Paris. I agree with almost everything you said. It is true that the French do no consider the Spanish their rivals. But, the Spanish do consider the French as rivals. The rest you said is true, in my opinion.
De acuerdo con que vuestra rivalidad más fuerte sea con Alemania, sin embargo ha habido y todavía hay casos en los que Francia trata de boicotear intentos de perseverancia española. Cuando España entró en la EU muchos franceses no estuvieron de acuerdo y, volcaron muchos camiones españoles que exportaban productos al resto de europa a modo de protesta. A día de hoy, Francia trata de impedir que empresas españolas puedan introducir sus trenes por sus ferrocarriles con la nueva ley de la EU, sin embargo en España ya hay trenes franceses. También hay una intervención de Francia con un canal de gas, el cual se va a construir para transportar Hidrógeno verde de España (H2 producido con energías renovables) al resto de Europa, Francia tan solo lo permitirá si por este puede transportarse hidrógeno rosa (producido con energía nuclear), el cual es más contaminante según los criterios de la agenda 2030.
Como ves Francia sigue aprovechando que su territorio es la única conexión terrestre con el resto de Europa para España para enriquecerse ella misma y reprimir a su vecina España, además de esto hay una minoría de franceses que miran por encima a los españoles, yo que vivo cerca de la frontera, puedo decirte que realmente se nota un desprecio y una actitud de superioridad que da bastante asco, sin embargo es una minoría, pero ya sabes como somos los humanos, nos fijamos siempre en lo malo y al final acaba siendo un prejuicio, aunque también puedo decir que no somos el único país de Europa que piensa a modo general que los franceses tienen una actitud arrogante.
@@gofishglobal7919 we dont considere them as rivals. Just an annoyance politically speaking. French government always wants France to be on top of everything. Just look at any EU proposals that significantly improve the whole EU living standars but may occasionate a lost af a few millions for French energetic companies or some shit. I'm sorry but it is what it is and your government is a disgrace for the whole EU
Yep, pretty much on point, except for the cultural rivalry with Germany. I mean come on, when it comes to culture the only ones we se as rival are the Italians.
@@Julien-rp2zj Maybe it comes from the feeling of being totally ignored by the historical parties who, on top of that, have been an utter disaster for the last 40 years. And, by the way, nationalism is not a bad thing.

Je pense que les réponses ne sont pas exactement ce à quoi on pourrait s'attendre.
Les similitudes sont assez simples à trouver entre l'Espagne et la France.
Habitudes culinaires, apéritif, frontalité dans le discours, politique, agressivité etc.
Les réponses autour de l'Histoire ne nous concerne plus vraiment je pense, et lorsqu'on parle d'un pays le sport est-t-il vraiment si important..?
Je suis d'accord. Tout cela est très superficiel. La plupart des personnes dans la vidéo sont des personnes qui n'ont pas voyagé à travers la France et qui ont de vieux stéréotypes espagnols sur la France et la relation entre le français et l'espagnol.
En moyenne les commentaires des Français sur les Espagnols sont plus positifs que le contraire.
On average the comments from French people about Spanish people are more positive than the opposite.
En promedio los commentarios de los franceses sobre los españoles son mas positivos que el contrario.
En privé, les Espagnols admirent beaucoup de choses sur la France. Les réactions du public dans ce genre de vidéos sont parfois très superficielles.

What do Spanish people think/know about Poland?

i guess the french spanish rivalry dates back when we said: franc is stronger than pesetas.. Otherwise, we're the same. Most names in south ouest france are spanish and we love going to spain for holidays. so much relaxing & warmer. We also have in common a couple of french queens of spain and spanish queens of france... So ... makes no difference. French arrogance is spread worldwide, I guess it is because of a few presidents we had/have, that are a shame to us on TV...especially the one we've got now...

The French have a global reputation of being arrogant and unwelcoming people.
Also I find it interesting that there is a program in France to teach the olympics volunteers how to be polite and avoid rudeness.
this reputation is a cliché;
Yo le quedó pienso es que no puedo juzgar porque tengo adn France y español ,basque y indigenous de Nicaragua 🇳🇮 entonces me vale turca
Parisians are ruining the French reputation everywhere LOL
Desde el punto de vista de los franceses no hay ninguna rivalidad contra España 😂😂😂
En el fondo todos aman la francia, lo que nos aman es lo provincianismo, perfeccionismo y soberbia francesa.
Tirando estos detalles malos, Francia és querida y mimada por todos los países romances europeos.

We honestly dont have any rivalry with spanish, we dont have opinion about spanish, we dont talk shit about spanish. It seems like all Europe have an opinion about French and most of the time negative, but i can tell you, we French dont have opinion about others, we dont have any animosity about a population in Europe.
So please, leave us alone
mdddrr ce commentaire est si vrai mais l'exaspération qui transparaît du commentaire est super drôle
This is the same attitude that made a lot of Europeans have some disdain towards the French, the entire "holier-than-thou" attitude. "We don't have opinion about others, we don't even think about you", the sheer arrogance coming from that sentence is the same stereotype people have of the French.
The French have no opinions about anyone else because they can only think of themselves, and your comment simply proves this.
@@marlongomezacevedo2170 ok, anything french will say will sound like arrogance for you then so anyway
i say we dont have opinion not in the sense " we dont care about others" but we dont have much stereotypes or rivalry as you think
you should think about develop your country and your family too rather than insult other countries
have a good day
The French have never been able to get over the fact that a country they make fun off and considered inferior had their army defeated and their king locked up in a tower in Madrid, had a bigger empire they could ever dream of and hundreds of millions of descendents who speak Spanish while most people who speak their language are in Africa and have zero French ancestry.😂
Francia por razones historicas no goza de mucha simpatia en varios paises europeos. El esteretipo de los franceses como arrogantes y xenofobos es una idea bastante extendida por Europa, pero en mi experiencia personal nada mas lejos de la realidad, son gente amable de buenos modales, a excepcion de los parisinos...
To be honest, the video gives the impression that the Spanish are "soberbios", by trying to make the French look that way. ????
Esta “rivalidad” es más tradición que realidad, en general la gente no está para estas tonterías….pero a los ingleses GGRRRRR🤬….jaja es broma!
Spanish called French gabachos and French called Spanish Espingouins, two pejorative words.
although "espingouins" is very rarely used these days, many French people don't even know the word - I've learned about it around 2 years ago, I'm in my early 20s.
the problem with France is that it is not France anymore but more an annex of Africa - which makes the Frenchness something outdated
lololol
I'm from San Sebastian, a really close city to France and I even have french family. San Sebastian is mainly full of french tourists (also Americans and other people from a lot of nationalities). I've been working in restaurants for several years, mainly in Burger King, and some french people are rude and one of the worst customers. They don't try to communicate and they DEMAND you to speak french. They NEVER try to talk in english nor spanish, not even basic words like "ice cream" "one". I've also seen and had arguments with rude french in the street. And they drive very badly, tbh. So all of these reasons make us hate the french.
Not all of them are like this, of course. If you talk to them in basic french, they really appreciate it and many of them are really nice and sweet people.
In the contrary, when I've been in france, they have treated me very well. The french are nice in France and they TRY to communicate with you in spanish if they see you struggling to speak french. They drive well in france aswell...Idk, they are really ironical.
But, overall, the spaniards and the french have a very similar lifestyle (except for the timing of having meals and sleeptime). The cuisine is very similar, the way we are with friends and family...
I've got to say that spaniards tourists are known as one of the worst tourist aboard because we are very noisy and chaotic (I try to be polite and not too noisy), so I could understand the hate against spaniards too xD
Edit: The french pastry is the best. Their food is excellent, but tbh Spain has an excellent food too.
