The Germans would surely take France again again.

I don't think so. Remember that in the 1800s France under Napoleon comprehensively defeated the Germans and were only defeated by the Russian winter.

200 years ago, "Germany" did not yet exist. NB had many "germanics" in his Armee.

Most of the 1/2 million troops lost by NB in Russia were from lands to the north of France.
