From wikipedia about PDF:

Page dimensions are not limited by the PDF format itself. However, Adobe Acrobat imposes a limit of 15 million in by 15 million in, or 225 trillion in2 (145,161 km2).

Ah yes, Emperor Karl der Große, a Frankish (Germanic) ruler

So you're saying France later took their land by conquering it from Germanic people? That's the opposite of the message you're trying to send

I realize I'm arguing with someone who's not interested in historical reality over a single WWII stereotype, so this is where I'm going to end it. Thinking that writing Charlemagne's name in modern German means he wasn't a pivotal figure in French history is fucking stupid. The people of France are directly descended from the Gauls and the Franks, the French language was heavily influenced by Latin and Frankish, and French culture and political divisions were heavily influenced by the Carolingian dynasty

The French are just germanised Latins, no glory in that
