Topologie algébrique, chapter IV, § 5. Théorème de van Kampen

If the group π1(X,a)\pi_1(X, a) is trivial, the set A = B∩CB\cap C is arcwise connected; if it is commutative, the set A has at most two arcwise connected components.

In fact, if S is a set, the free group F(S) is trivial only if S is empty and is commutative only if Card S⩽1S\leqslant 1.

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
