Where are the black players of the French team?

Most black players in France are not French, but people from French colonies.

First of all, it must be clear that there are not only many black players in France, but also many black nationals. These blacks mainly come from former colonial countries and overseas territories of France. France is the second largest colonial empire in the modern world, and its overseas colonies are very vast, with a colonial area as high as120,000 square kilometers.

French colonies are mainly concentrated in West Africa, which is one of the major black communities in the world. These colonies are close to France because France has ruled there for a long time.

Influenced by the French, they are not only very close to France in political system and lifestyle, but also French is the first language of many countries. The local residents yearn for life in France, so they try their best to go to France.

1945, France turned many French-speaking colonies in Africa into territories under its direct jurisdiction, so that these Africans became French and possessed the status of French citizens. After World War II, France was in great need of labor, so many Africans poured into France, and the number of French blacks surged.

In the 1950s and 1960s, most French colonies became independent one after another, but these colonies were still inextricably linked with France, and it was still very easy for them to enter France.

At that time, France was in the period of industrial upgrading, and its economic development entered a golden period. France is also a very open and tolerant country, and its immigration policy is relatively loose, especially for those former colonial countries. Therefore, black people go to France to work and undertake manual labor at the bottom of automobile assembly industry, retail industry and service industry.

Most of these black people who worked in France stayed there and became French citizens. In addition, a large number of refugees and stowaways from former French colonial countries flooded into France because of war and other reasons, and became French citizens through legal and illegal means.
