Or if you chilled a bit on the treaty of Versailles or blamed Serbia
But no, you were jelly of the German and wanted France to be the center of the world so you ended up fucking up everyone
Adam Turner
Actually, that wasn't even feasible. Germany already had lots of divisions fortified on its western border, and Poland collapsed way too quickly. The deal was that France would respond in 15 days after potential German aggression, but in 2 weeks Polish army was basically completely shattered and Germany was already pulling divisions from Poland back to the Western front.
So, in your scenario, French army with poor leadership and doctrines would be attacking without preparation against fortified German divisions, which would most likely end in catastrophe.

The french army wasn't prepared for a big offensive

Daily reminder that F*ance and especially this nigger are directly responsible for the rise of Hitler and WWII. Britain and America wanted to go easy on Germany, but the vindictive, petty F*ench wouldn't let us.
Gavin Edwards
maybe but they were more prepared than germany
they could have taken a lot more because it would take months for germany to reorganize their eastern front
it was a massive missed opportunity

This fucking meme needs to stop.
We went too hard on the Germans while still letting them the chance to retaliate, and you niggers are basically saying we should just have gone easy on them.
But no, we should have done like Americans and Russians in ww2, dismantle their autistic empire or at least occupy it effectively. But no, *nglos and Americans stopped us.
Also, the fact we only occupied the Ruhr (and still, for a short period of time) made the nazis and other assblasted Germans think they got stabbed in the back and could have actually won (which is wrong).

Show some fucking respect faggot. "going easy" on germany is what turned Versailles into an half assed useless treaty.
Nicholas Wilson
This. Germany should have been disolved after the first world war and never allowed to reunify. As usual france knows whats best for the continent.

Your chances were at 1936 and 1938.
Joseph Martinez
what happened in those years?
Sebastian Price
Remilitarization of the Rhineland and the Munich betrayal.
In the latter case, people from within the nazi party were preparing a coup in case of allied rejection.

Except, that is what actually happened, and failed: en.wikipedia.org
But if we ignore that, France had some major difficulties that would limit any offensive operation during the war:
>french intelligence severely overestimating german capabilities
>french doctrine (methodical battle) limiting flexibility and mobility
>high command who could not adapt to the situations outside what they had planned
>unwillingness to target strategic points such as factories or any key target in cities out of fear of reprisal
>armoured units missing basic radio equipment
>armoured units being organized ineffectively to match German armour
>defensive mindset due to amount of casulties from the last world war
>Germans being competent at maneuver warfare and encircling their opponents
>no air superiority
>vulnerable supply lines
Take those things into consideration and I'd say that those were some pretty bleak odds
