Rather far back compared to many people here, yes. It was 1832 before I woke up here. And no, so I have been able to learn here. France has had a series of other events, a new republic, then, further on, another that worked.

[And that thought alone, of the republic that came, and the thought that one came after that have been helpful in all of this. It is something to look back at and realize that Les Amis were a part of, and to see their marks left on the world.

Not that Enjolras has learned much of France's history here. Only that there is a future for his country.]

I've been told there were some hardships along the way to that as well, but I've avoided most of the details. France will always have my love, my whole being, but I am not able to influence her anymore, so...

So here I am, babbling at you, I suppose. Although, I must point out that there seem to be very different Earths involved in all of this as well. Which is...incredibly odd, actually. Enough to make your head spin, and maybe never stop. Timelines got thrown out of the way here, I'd say. Then again, a lot of things we accept here by now are also really strange.
