Explanation:

French–American relations (French: Relations entre la République française et les États-Unis d'Amérique), refers to the diplomatic, social, economic and cultural relations between France and the United States since 1776. France was one of the first allies of the new United States. The 1778 treaty and military support proved decisive in the American victory over Britain in the American Revolutionary War. France fared poorly, with few gains and heavy debts, which were contributing causes of France's own revolution and eventual transition to a Republic.

The relationship had always been important for both nations. It has been peaceful except for the Quasi-War in 1798-99, and fighting against Vichy France (while

supporting Free France) in 1942-1944 during World War II. During the American Civil War, France took over Mexico. When the U.S. defeated the Confederacy, it sent a large army to the border and forced the French to withdraw.

In the 21st century, differences over the Iraq War led each country to have lowered favorability ratings of the other. However, since then, relations have improved, with American favorable ratings of France reaching a historic high of 87% in 2016. Gallup concluded, "After diplomatic differences in 2003 soured relations between the two countries, France and the U.S. have found a common interest in combating international terrorism, and the mission has become personal for both countries."
