I believe Germany's is much more interconnected while France's mostly goes from Paris to other places. Mesh versus star topology.

		That’s be a use Germany economy is far more distributed (5 or so economic centres) across the country where as counties like France and U.K. have one centre, and places like Spain and Italy two (Madrid/Barca and Rome/Milan)

Yes, as a German I can agree.

However, I remember the anecdote of how France has two different companies for the trains and trainstations. The first ordered trains which were a little bit to wide for the trainstations, due to a miss communication.

When I read about this, I thought „this could have been Germany too.“

In fact German ICEs are limited in speed in Germany because of the rails, when they cross to France go faster.
