France
France in the modern era became a central player in European and world politics, particularly with its role in both World Wars and the establishment of the European Union. French literature and art also contributed significantly to modern myth-making, with figures like Joan of Arc emerging as cultural symbols of resistance and nationalism.Mythological themes in French literature saw a blend of ancient Celtic myths with modern tales of chivalry and revolution. The 20th century also saw an increasing fascination with futuristic myths, such as in the works of French science fiction writers.
