Why is it that the French were considered among the victors when they were allied with the Nazis and fought against us?

Why was France not occupied by the UK like Germany?
>>
>>52722721
Must I enumerate lengthily all we've got going in our favour to be deemed victors:
>well for one, having France as a victor earned them a UN seat which was beneficial to counter the USSR's and potentially China's (still nationalist then as Mao was still an unknown guerrilla fighter) voices
>allowed France to be gifted an occupation zone in Germany and Austria, therefore better countering the occupation zones held by the USSR and its then puppet Poland
>recompense for french fighters in French Indochina and British Burma, and the FFL fighters in Northern Africa and the Provence landings
>french resistance ranks amongst one of the most efficient with that of Poland and Yugoslavia
>homage to French resistance at Dunkirk and as consolation gift for Mers-el-Kebir
>propaganda means to reiterate a "WW1" victory mood where democracy and liberty had once more ushered into Europe

Oh and De Gaulle.
Fuck it, if he'd not been there, France would've only been allotted the rights of an occupied country and we'd have been burdened with American bases.

>recompense for french fighters in French Indochina and British Burma, and the FFL fighters in Northern Africa and the Provence landings
Literally a fucking drop in the sea of American/Russian/British contributions. France did more damage to the allies with Hitler than the rebels did to the Axis.

>french resistance ranks amongst one of the most efficient with that of Poland and Yugoslavia
Being 'one of the most' when the nazis barely conquered 6 entities is not much.
It's also a myth. By far the French populace was the most docile of all Nazis conquests. Nothing to compare to all the Slavic militias in Russian territory that really fucked the advancing German army instead of running away like French civilians.

The war could have ended at September campgain if they didn't pussy out.

That's false though
Vichy was neutral
They only got involved when their territory was attacked (be it by allies or axis)

Nice try.
You fought against the allies and offered no resistance to Japan. Pussies.

>>52725455
then why did we win the war ?

>>
>>52725516
>then why did we win the war ?
Because the Soviets carried west to victory.
>>
>>52725516
Maybe because the persistent whining and tantrums thrown by your armchair general caused the allied command to fear a PR backlash and reconsider their positions.
>>
>five weeks
Holy shit
>>
>>52725841
While having equal army to Nazis, not having soviets from the other side and literally having weeks to prepare after the September Campgain.

Laughable.

France was not allied with Germany and did not fight "against us". Free France was part of the allies, and Vichy France was neutral.

Vichy France didn't exist during the liberation of Europe, It was all occupied territory

Also, it is good to note that De Gaulle mobilized all of France's remaining forces (a million men) against Nazi Germany when the occupied territories were liberated
>>
>>52739113
The Vichy government continued to exist, but its metropolitan territory was entirely occupied after 1942 (and the colonies were all lost to Free France by then).

Either way, France did not fight against the allies. The only case where this happened was when the Americans landed in North Africa, without bothering to inform any French authorities from either side. Local (Vichy affiliated) French troops obviously fought back.

More like because your plan to turn France into a vassal colony failed miserably, and you realised it would be a phenomenally bad idea to try to keep France down by force.

French value their life too much to die for their country but that is not a reason to bully them.

Faggotshit mentality or controlled from the above, that's why.

France had means to destroy Nazi Germany in 1939, but didn't do so.
>>
>>52722721
Why was France occupied by Germany and not the UK.

We liberated it with the Americans and Canadians?
Or are you asking why we didn't want to occupy a brotherly European nation?
If so, your answer is because we're not traitors, revolting subhumans like the Krauts.

>France calling the UK a colony.
The UK (since the 1800's) has been stronger than France. France is breakfast to us, Britons.

We're not your "breakfast".

We beat you fair and square in Waterloo. We had already won when we put the fear of Britannia in the eyes of you frogs. Then, Blumer came charging in Calvary and all, finishing you off.
