From football to armed conflict, history shows that
Anglo-Franco rivalries run deep.

But on its way to becoming a powerful global empire,
England got by with a little help from its close
neighbour.

According to archaeologists, England relied on silver
imported from France to make its own coins around 1,300
years ago.

The imported silver could have taken the form of French
bowls, plates or spoons before being melted down and
refashioned into coins.

.. . .

Hmmmmmm .... sounds vaguely familiar ... getting,
relying on, important metals from ENEMIES :-)

Heard a few months back that large lithium deposits
had been found in the USA - Cal and Montana. Also
heard the EV-loving greenies were already moving to
BLOCK mining ..........

They just LOVE those Chinese slave-labor batteries,
which China can cut-off on a whim .......
