You've got a point. Citroens, Peugots, and Renaults would probably be at least
unusual, if not cruel, punishment for the Germans who let the Nazis attain/maintain power.

"During D-Day there were many French who were angry about the destruction of their towns and cities by American bombers."

France is what would happen if you were purposely trying to parody a real nation.

Impose france on germany?

I thought that was exactly what we did!

That's why Europe is essentially border-free these days.

As I recall, the entire German occupation garrison never exceeded 10,000 troops. The French did it to themselves - not suprising when you consider the nature of the French.
