Well, that's kind of missing the point of the Foreign Legion, isn't it? The whole idea is that neither party has much loyalty to the other, FFL is essentially a bunch of expressly expendable foreigners for the French government to deploy as a military force.

Also the most likely enemy the German gov has to fight are nazi Germans, who would gravitate towards army posts
Having an army that sympathizes with nazis could very quickly turn into a professional nazi army, thus having a diverse one actually has less conflicts of loyalty, presuming they vet for cheeki jihadis

Basing it on the FFL where service = citizenship would be a great way to socially integrate Germany and newGermans in addition to providing manpower for such a FFL, as Germany has now an overabundance of young foreign men with nothing much to do
This would also allow Germany to take a more active and not retarded foreign policy on the world stage

10/10 would recommend again

P.s. if you want expendable foreigners just do a Saudi Arabia and hire loads of mercenaries

I think you're onto something there, Germany starts this foreign legion, recruits it's 20 million Syrian refugees who join for citizenship, then they can send the 'army' over to the Middle East to recover their homeland.
Doesn't particularly matter if they win, if not we'll you don't need refugee camps anymore.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

Quite a bit of ruckus in France after a newspaper revealed Hollande's hairdresser is paid over 9.500 euros a month.

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

Don't get the whole fuzz. THe one time a ruler does decide to let a proletarian share some of his wealth, it's still no good.

His wealth? Do you not think he'll be claiming that on expenses?

Doesn't sound too ridiculous, really.

I wonder what 9.5k euro is in NZD.

...

He gets paid fifteen grand for hairdressing? Ye gods. That's pretty ridiculous.

Andrea Lüdtke, the head teacher, refused. “He is by no means a radical or extremist,” she told Hamburger Morgenpost newspaper.
He is, however, extremely rude.

What if the teachers reaction? That wasn't very polite either. Setting superb examples for their charges.
