What viewpoint about the role of government in France during the time of the Franco-Prussian War is conveyed by
Maupassant in the following lines of "Two Friends"?
"Under a king we have foreign wars; under a republic we have civil war.
And the two began placidly discussing political problems with the sound common sense of peaceful, matter-of-fact
citizens-agreeing on one point that they would never be free.
• As long as Prussia's government is power-hungry, the French will never have liberty.
France has such a tumultuous past, that the freedom of its citizens will always be in jeopardy.
Two people with differing opinions can find a common ground.
Regardless of the type of government, there will always be war.

Regardless of the type of government, there will always be war.

Explanation:

In this passage, we learn that the two men agreed on the point that they would never be free. The way they justify this way of thinking is by comparing different types of government. The men say that when they are ruled by a monarchy, they have foreign wars to deal with. However, when they are instead ruled by a republic, they have to deal with civli war. Either way, regardless of the type of government, the men believe that there will always be war.
