How is it not about the economy if France has regulations on book prices?

Your explanation just highlights more of the idiocy that is the French government. Essentially, the French government doesn't like that amazon is competitive. Isn't that the main problem that the French have with every large company?
Either way, I don't really care. France will sink, and quickly, without my help. It's just sad to see a nation with such a rich culture shoot itself in the foot (or rather, the head).
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

I meant it's not about the current economy, the law exists since 1981

I believe "Kingdom of the Netherlands" is still the formally correct name.

A very artificial kingdom it must be, too, given that the true kings of Burgundy are gone.
