Hence we have xxxx in France categories regardless of whether it should in theory be xxxx in the Kingdom of France at some points of history and eg xxxx in the French Republic at others. It makes it easier for people not expert in French history to use "France" categories - and also easier for navigation templates and other automatic processes. The benefits of that kind of thing far outweigh the slight reduction in historical precision.[[User:Le Deluge\|Le Deluge]] ([[User talk:Le Deluge\|talk]]) 12:41, 24 April 2019 (UTC) ---- :''The above is preserved as an archive of the discussion. <span style="color:red">'''Please do not modify it.'''</span> Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the category's [[Help:Using talk pages\|talk page]] or in a [[Wikipedia:Deletion review\|deletion review]]).
