	'''''The Alsatians or the Two Matildas''''' is a 1996 French miniseries consisting of four episodes and tells the story of Alsace between 1870 and 1953 through the history of fictional families. It is also the story of a region: Alsace, the "beautiful province" with a glorious past. This region was shaped by the history and rivalry of the two great powers, Germany and France, which for a long time considered each other as "hereditary enemies". Therefore, for centuries Alsace was the scene of conflicts, torn between two cultures and two nations. Within a century, Alsace had to change its nationality four times: French after the Thirty Years' War under Louis XIV, it remained German for almost fifty years from 1870. In 1918 it belonged to France again, from 1940 to Germany, and finally, in 1944 it became French again.

'''''The Alsatians or the Two Matildas''''' is a 1996 French television series consisting of four episodes and tells the story of Alsace between 1870 and 1953 through the history of fictional families. It is also the story of a region: Alsace, the "beautiful province" with a glorious past. This region was shaped by the history and rivalry of the two great powers, Germany and France, which for a long time considered each other as "hereditary enemies". Therefore, for centuries Alsace was the scene of conflicts, torn between two cultures and two nations. Within a century, Alsace had to change its nationality four times: French after the Thirty Years' War under Louis XIV, it remained German for almost fifty years from 1870. In 1918 it belonged to France again, from 1940 to Germany, and finally, in 1944 it became French again.

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=

==MAS Mle. 1892==
[[Mle 1892 Revolver]]s are carried by Charles de la Tour (Jacques Coltelloni) and Ruprecht (Jürgen Zwingel) during the first episode set during the Franco-Prussian War which is an anachronism. Louis de la Tour (Michel Voïta), Ernst von Wismar ([[Richard Sammel]]), Max Seligman (Marc Berman), and a German sailor are seen with Mle. 1892 revolvers in the second episode.

==MP 40==
Several German soldiers in Ep. III and IV are armed with [[MP40]]s, which are also used by Louis-Charles Kempf-de la Tour ([[Stanislas Carré de Malberg]]), Peter Imhof (Jean-Michel Fête), and Antoine Roederer (Philippe Polet) in a flashback.

=Rifles=

==Gras Mle. 1874==
French troops in 1870 are seen with [[Gras Model 1874]] rifles standing in for accurate [[Chassepot 1866]] rifles. Yerri Laugel (Lucas Belvaux) is also seen with one of them.

==Dreyse Rifle Mockup==
Rifle mockups that resemble [[Dreyse Model 1841‎]] rifles are wielded by Prussian soldiers. Compared to the real Dreyses, they have longer muzzles and no rear safeties.

Instead of correct [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifles, German soldiers and sailors in the second episode are armed with [[Vz. 98/22 Czech Mauser‎]]s.

Some [[Berthier Model 1916 Carabine]]s are also seen carried by French soldiers.

==M1 Carbine==
Free French and U.S. Army troops carry [[M1 Carbine]]s in the fourth episode. All M1 Carbines are equipped with late WWII bayonet lugs, which is anachronistic for 1944.

==Mauser Rifle==
Unknown Mauser Short Rifles are used by German Wehrmacht, SS soldiers, and ''Polizei'' officers. Therese rifles have turned-down bolt handles, grasping grooves, under-mounted sling swivels, and tangent-leaf rear sights. A possible guess could be the Brazilian M1922 or M1935 short rifles.
