I'm not sure if this is possible, and this may be my half-assed idea of German/French nationalism, but...

French nationalism has always seemed assimilationist to me in a way that German nationalism traditionally was not. It was quite possible for people to immigrate, or be conquered by, France and become "French".

In contrast, it's hard to imagine Germany ever trying to assimilate the Poles and making them good Germans.

Is it possible to change that?
