What year did France officially become an ally of the unite dstates?

Answer 1

I would have to say after the American Civil War and during the mass wave of Immigration and the Industrial Age that relations were normalized. Before the Civil War, Britain and America were engaged in several border disputes in relation to British North America-- Pig War, Aroostook War, etc. During the Civil War, US and UK relations were very cold and frosty almost to the point of Britain siding and fighting with the Confederacy. In the sense of becoming allies, it was not totally evident until World War One when the U.S. formally sided with the Allied Powers over the Axis Powers. World War Two and onwards into the present reaffirmed their commitment to the "special relationship."

Answer 2

During the Revolutionary War, France was already at war with Great Britain. Benjamin Franklin served as an ambassidor to France and convinced them to assist us. Since that time France and the US have supported each other. General Pershing, commander of the American Expeditionary Forces, on landing in France during World War 1, stated, "Lafayette, we are here!" in recognition of the debt the Americans have felt to the support of the French during our war for independence.

Answer 3

In regards to World War II, the US officially became an ally of France when they joined the war in 1945 following the Pearl Harbor bombing on the opposite side of Japan and the other Axis Powers, and because France opposed them as well, they automatically became allies.

Answer 4

The US and France first became official allies in 1778 when delegates of King Louis XVI and the Second Continental Congress signed the Treaty of Alliance.
