because the Germans are always portrayed as the "bad guys", and the Americans are always portrayed as the "good guys".
people only focus on that for some reason, while plenty of other third world countries participated in the war effort. |

america was focused on the pacific
meanwhile the uk and ussr were the ones in europe
i believe the reason france isnt in world war media is due to how quickly they gave up during the war |

xdude,
the french helped fend off the germans when the british were retreating at dunkirk, they also had 400k men in north africa
they deserve more representation

What should the missions be?
Skirmish through an occupied town?
Attend a parade while American officers in command cars.
Smuggling SOE agents?
Getting supplies from UK?
Too boring. Most of the participation is in small numbers. |

although the french army was quite powerful at the time, they gave up due to blitzkreig
and pretty early too |

We fought Germany because they declared war on us; not necessarily for revenge.
But the French and the Canadians do seem to be left out a lot. |

true,
but again, america was focused more on japan
and they wanted to fight japan and stop them from taking over the pacific, as well as avenge pearl harbor |

i'm assuming you've have not heard of the upcoming DLC for battlefield 1 called "They Shall Not Pass"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msXl2ZybwTk
also there's the game Verdun, which is an FPS game that has the french military https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XboXaVzjoe4
however, what about the russians? they had the largest front in the first world war |

what are you talking about
world war media had always focused a lot on the russians
they were one of the most powerful countries in the allied powers |
