    It depends how you would define the subject and the verb. It's empires were at its largest in the late 1800s. Its culture diffusion was at its dominance in the late 1900s. Most people think its "soulfulness" peaked in the 1700s

    It just depends on your parameters OP

        The 1914 answer would apply moreso to French and Brits or even Russkies than to Germans though. The Germans bounced back from the war quite rapidly with US support after their financial crisis, and grew back into the continent’s main industrial power. On the other hand France was effectively mentally and industrially crippled.

          True 1920s were Germanys peak if it weren't for the political instability.

          France? Nah. France had slipped after the Franco-Prussian War. America definitely eclipsed France and cemented itself as Number 2 world power to Britain. Italy, and Japan, and to a lesser extent Brazil were really breathing down the necks of grandpa France for “world power” status.

            you're delusional if you think that USA was a greatest power than France in 1870.

    While 1914 was objectively the downfall, it had been rapidly getting more and more shit
    If you're a kraut, 1871-1900, but 1800-1850 was also great, just before the revolutions
