A French civil war before July 1914

What if France fell into a Russian-scale civil war just before the assassination of Franz Ferdinand?

Germany would probably avoid invading Belgium, leave the French factions to fight, and compete over colonies or political concessions instead.

The scenario gives Germany little reason to execute the Schlieffen-style move through Belgium because France is no longer a coherent opponent requiring rapid defeat. Entering the civil war would be dangerous: an outside intervention could unify otherwise hostile French factions against the invader. Germany might instead pursue colonial acquisitions or trade recognition to whichever government emerged for territorial concessions. Britain would have opportunities to place French colonies under temporary protection while other powers were distracted. The assassination of Franz Ferdinand could still produce an eastern crisis, but every government's incentives and available forces would be different.
