The Position of France Outside Europe in 19th Century Power
The article traces France’s global aims and colonial expansion under Louis XIV’s memory, noting broader imperial strategy across Asia, Africa, and the Pacific. It highlights Cambodia, Cochin China, Saigon, and the Opium seas, with reference to Indian Ocean routes, Pacific stations, coal Supplies, and the balance against British influence. France seeks naval reach via De Ligny like ports, while Britain retains vast coal and global stations. It also mentions New Caledonia, Oceania, and the Red Sea link, arguing France’s influence expands despite no dramatic shocks to England.
