Abstract
Abstract Valéry Giscard d’Estaing had the honesty to confess during his presidency that France was now a medium-sized power. This did not mean that it no longer had pretensions to grandeur. It fought hard to retain its permanent seat on the Security Council of the United Nations, struggled to ensure its hegemony in Europe, and proved both stubborn in relinquishing the last vestiges of its empire and remarkably inventive in perpetuating different forms of neocolonial power. Over time, however, many of these ambitions bore bitter fruit. When Soviet power collapsed, France found it increasingly difficult to stand up to the United States. The unification of Germany threatened its leading role in Europe and cooled the European fervour of many French people. In Africa the French lost their ability to arbitrate effectively, while within Francophone countries they gradually lost the initiative to a new rival, Canada.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
