    If you hard rush napoleon and the war goal focuses you can get Britain, Belgium, and the Netherlands (including their puppets) into your faction before Germany does Sudetenland. As long as you have a good offensive army you can win the war in a few months and be unstoppable for this achievement.

    I remember trying a France game years ago where my main goal was to survive the German invasion. Built level 10 forts all along my borders and played mostly historical focuses (I think), set up my front lines and watched as Germany completed the necessary focuses and then.... nothing. Germany refused to attack. Ended up getting declared on by Japan for my land in Asia and won that war taking most of China in the process, but Germany decided to just stay friends.
    Eventually got bored and declared on the axis. Conquered Germany and dropped the world's first atomic weapons on Dresden and Berlin. Don't think I continued to play until 1948 though. Oh well.

    If France had remained on the Franco-Belgian border instead of running off into Belgium (the Dyle Plan) it's likely Guderians offensive through the Ardennes would have been a failure, and with that France almost certainly would have won and history would be very different.
