This is a weird comment but also confusing about why it’s being downvoted.
Is it cuz it’s so random or because people are idiots and think you’re wrong?
The French may have gotten collapsed but they fought tooth and nail the entire war.
The story is that Paris was taken in 6 hours, and that's often used to mock the French for not resisting much. The truth is that Paris wasn't damaged in the way London or Berlin were in WW2. Seems like a decent tradeoff in the end.
I know what “the joke” is, and it’s always been dumb.
