I'd like to get, in one convenient location, your views about what Germany might plausibly seize (or place under domination) in the event that she won in the West in 1914. I will refrain from arguing for or against anything, though I will propose objections and ask what you think about them.

The situation: Alien Space Bats use their dastardly mind-control ray to impose gratuitously bad decisions on French generals. France's armies are decisively defeated on or immediately before/behind the Frontiers. France in dire straits sues for peace (you may assume that the Germans do not immediately negotiate but rather continue pushing forward, if you wish).

Note that this isn't exactly a question of war aims, but rather what Germany realistically could/would do.
