I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was the republican government amenable to?
All the background I'm provided with is that "While the republican government was amenable to war reparations or ceding colonial territories in Africa or in South East Asia to Prussia, Favre on behalf of the Government of National Defense, declared on 6 September that France would not "yield an inch of its territory nor a stone of its fortresses.". Is that enough to answer the question?
