As you may recall from history until the French Revolution in 1792 in the royal army consisted exclusively of mercenaries. French Commune was the cause of its collapse. But pretty soon it took the French military - to the state borders reached the Austrian troops. As a result, the male population voluntarily recorded in the ranks of the defenders of the homeland.
