Prussia was an important part of the coalition which defeated Napoleon and occupied Paris in 1814. Prussia provided half the troops which won the Waterloo campaign in 1815, finally defeating Napoleon and once again occupting Paris. Prussia once more beat France in 1870, thus completing the unification of Germany; the German Empire was proclaimed from the Palace of Versailles. Finally, another German Empire under Hitler defeated France in 1940. That seems to make 4 times, though both Prussia and Germany had allies to help them each time.
The French were on the Allied side. France was quickly defeated & overrun by the Blitzkreig in 1940. There was a Government set up known as Vichy which tried to maintain a form of autonomy under the Nazis. The Free French, in exile, were led by General Charles de Gaulle.
