France was defeated by Germany in WWII (despite putting up a fight
that was more heroic than the Americans had done in 100 years).
WWI was a draw.
It's not a draw when one side surrenders. Where's the other one?
Germany surrendered not just to France. It collapsed fighting against
the combined forces of France, the UK, and the USA.
But, unless you can show that France in WW1 surrendered to Germany,
you can't very well count WW1 as a win for Germany and a loss for France.
