France wins 1940: Collaborative TL

I have seen several timelines in which France fights on after a loss on the mainland, but I have seen precious few where France wins the Battle of France, and none dealing with the world after.

So there is a simple POD--the French do not get routed in May 1940, through a variety of factors, but all within natural probabilities (in other words, no silver bullet). The result is the German advance stalls, the French do some crash reorganization of their armor, get advanced planes to the front, England commits to the defense in France, and...

what?

Is a coup in the cards? How do we work this so the collaboration can start and we simply go forward with the timeline (rather than never getting past arguing over the POD?) I've never done this before.

Thanks.
 
I had a thread discussing this a short while back. No one seemed really sure, especially on whether or not over confident allies would decided that if they could smash mighty Germany so well that "wimpy" Russia would fall in no time, or if they would be so reluctant for more war that they would abandon Poland.
 
and...

what?

Is a coup in the cards?

Yes, this was what Canaris was waiting for. A massive struggle in the West, with real fear of Russian intervention in the East would mean that the old admiral will not loss his support for a coup. It was the massive victory in France what made a coup almost impossible.
 
I think the most interesting political effects involve the USA and USSR. Hitler doesn't turn East with a stalemate in the West and the USSR doesn't get involved and come to dominate Eastern Europe. The U.S. sees less need to intervene (even only with things like Lend-Lease or convoy escorts) with the Allies holding their own.
