What military advantage did Germany have over France at the beginning of World War 2?

What was France's military strategy during world war 2?
France's military strategy was highly defensive, there was a good six months where France could have attacked Germany, but neither side attacked each other (Germany had their hands full invading Norway, Denmark, Poland, and more smaller European countries). The French military expected that when Germany was to attack, they would do so through through Belgium as Germany had in WWI, so the French military used the Dyle plan, which focused their forces along the Dyle River in Belgium. They armed the Dyle with new anti-tank technologies. This was a miscalculation in two ways, firstly while there were some German forces in Belgium, Germany's strongest forces were to the Low Countries, secondly the anti-tank technology didn't work.
