    I also recall hearing that there were fascist collaborators among the French bougeoise that helped call for the capitulation of the French state instead of trying to reorganize the military to fight the fascist invaders. But I need to research that more so concider it hearsay and not fact.

      the improvement to allied affairs would be pretty limited after a capture of Paris, Brits were out and the remainder of the army were gonna get smashed. a steadfastly allied French fleet woudda helped but clearly wasn't actually necessary for victory. maybe non-Vichy algeria would've put the screws to the italians but imo its equally likely they'd pathetically fold :shrug-outta-hecks:
