The first mention of the area of nowadays France as a country is found in the treaty of Verdun, 843 AD, treaty which settled the heirloom of the empire of Charles the Great. Since that date, France never was a colony or a dependence of Another Country, and never had to achieve independence (even though the Frennch had to fight at frequent occurences for the defence of their soil). This is also why France has no Independence Day, but commemorate the start of the French Revolution (the storming of the Bastille fortress on July 14, 1789) as its national day.
