Totally agree.
I don't think it would be neccessary for France to attempt to recolonise anywhere - main concern would most likely be to make sure that each country maintained a pro French Government, even if that meant using force to install one / keep it in place. There could be shades of the Wild Geese and Frederick Forsyth's Dogs of War.
