## Overview

Lorraine-Labrys Academy is a school in Japan that serves as a symbol for the France-Japan relationship that goes back to the early-mid 19th century. Its courses are about or relates to cookery courses, with their primary courses are bakery and winery.

## History

The creation for the school dated back to its origin in the mid 19th century. The school was under the supervision of the French Government following the two centuries of Japan's seclusion under the "*Sakoku*" system. The main building for the School was a legation building for the French Government before it turned into a Military Academy in 1867 for modernizing the *Shogunate's Army* during the midst of the *Boshin Wa*r with the help of the French Military Mission, commanded by Captain Jules Brunet. But during the war, the original school was captured by the Imperial Court and thus it was the decision of both Captain Jules Brunet and Enomoto Takeaki to form a new Military Academy/Barracks in Ezo (now Hokodate), to continue the service of the Military Academy in Yokohama that was closed after it was captured.

After the *Boshin War* and the start of the *Meijin Restoration*, the new Japanese Government decided to allow the operation of both Military Academies in both Yokohama and Hokodate, though Yokohama was still being controlled by the *Meijin Period*, while the other one in the Hokodate was being supervised by the French Government with remnants of the defunct French Military Mission, this also included Jules Brunet and Enomoto Takeaki.

Both the schools, though far apart to each other, has gained good relations whatsoever while heavily being influenced by French Culture. But the school on the south meanwhile is slowly being influenced by the Imperial's ideology, so much so that the school's leadership became a dictatorship-esque. This sudden change of course would soon leave the inevitability of both school ending their ties to one another. Both the school's ideology and belief were very different as the north was pro-democratic while the south was pro-authoritarian.

The school in the north, whose name is called "Lorraine *Gakko*" (as a way to support their ties with the Free France Government) was immediately invaded and conquered by the Imperial Japanese by subjugation, this event causes the school to shut down while its students and inhabitants were captured as they were showed to be "anti-nationalists" and thus imprisoned during the duration of the war. While the school on the south, whose name is "The Vichy Academy of the Imperial Far East," (whose name supported their ties with both Vichy France and Imperial Japan) were pro-authoritarian and pro-nationalist which became the staple of Japan's relationship with Vichy France during the war.

During the occupation of the Allied forces of Japan, "Lorraine Gakko" was opened while "VAIFE" was reformed. The Government of the Provisional French Government meanwhile soon decided to put both VAIFE and Lorraine Gakko into the seas via the uses of School-Carrier in efforts to destroy their sites so that the Japanese could use their area for reformation purposes, and thus the school-carrier of *Painleve* and *Joffre* were constructed and both the schools of Labrys (formerly known as VAIFE) and Lorraine were built on top of it respectively.

Around the start of the 21st century, the decision of the French Government as well as the Japanese Government to integrate both the schools into one big school that would represent the French-Japan relationship was proposed and thus the formation of Lorraine-Labrys was formed in January 13, 2000, 133 years after the First French Military Mission to Japan arrived in Yokohama.
