WWI KIA and Brittany

The last counting of population in Brittany shows a good demographic tendency.
Amongs the comments of the analysts something very interesting : It took about a hundred years to recover from WW1 desaster. Yes, according to their calculation with other factors, they see the consequences of the bloody sacrifice (french didn't care about us at that time) of britons till nowadays.

The regiment i've been for military service lost twice all of his personnel in WW1 : hard to imagine that, hard to imagine a hundred years to recover

Interesting quote for you from the diary of NZ soldier:
"Today I met a French soldier who could speak no French. He'd be better off with the Welsh. He's from Brittany."
