How the French became the leaders of the naval industry | GENIUS

In the 17th century, the French Navy, like its foreign competitors, wanted to construct the best warship. At the time, warships were constructed by hand. And it could take about a hundred craftsmen a year and a half to build these lords of the sea. Each ship was unique because the master shipbuilders guarded their trade secrets jealously. Yet, soon one nation stood out from the crowd for the excellence of their ships: The French! What was their secret?
