The English kings, who had originally been French nobles that invaded and conquered England in 1066, still held lands in France.
The King's spies told him that Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond had left France and was making for Wales and then, that he had landed at Milford Haven.
The surviving French rump was later perpetuated thanks to the protection and support of the Kings of France, and it was by a decision of a King of France under whose royal authority it was placed from 1608 that it was allowed to become extinct.

The kings of France were the eldest sons of the Church, and bore most of the paternal likeness.

When King Louis of France finally decided to send troops to America, Rochambeau was promoted to lieutenant-general and put in charge of the Frenchmen headed for the colonies.
He joined the BEF France on 2nd September 1915 but was back home on 28th October 1915 where he was subsequently discharged under Kings Regs.
Another reason was that King Louis XIV of France sent invading troops into the rich farmlands of the Rhine Palatine region, literally driving off the farmers.
