When a near-sighted saint accidentally baptizes penguins instead of humans, God transforms them into people, creating a new civilization. France chronicles their entire history—from ancient times through the future—as a satirical mirror of French history itself. The narrative includes a pointed allegory of the Dreyfus Affair and skewers religious hypocrisy, political corruption, and social follies. This darkly comic tale presents human civilization as an endless cycle of ambition, destruction, and regression.
