There is not very much difference on the whole because the countries are in close geographical proximity, so many ancient migrants lay across both countries.

Note, however, that the people speak different branches of the aryan (aka indo-european) language group. The french speak a language from the latin branch that originated in Rome (as also do the italians, the spanish / portugese, and the romanians), and the germans speak a germanic language (as do the english, dutch, and scandinavians). There is usually a correlation between language and race. Some time around 500 CE (+/- 200 years, I don't remember the exact time), the Franks, a germanic group from which France gets it's name, invaded the northern part of France (but not the southern part), and made the people of the region more racially germanic. However, their germanic language was eventually replaced by french. Generally, the people of both southern Germany AND southern France consist of people that originally spoke celtic languages, whereas the people of both northern France AND northern Germany consist of people that originally spoke germanic languages.

Both countries, like all countries in europe, consist of multiple european racial groups (and therefore different appearance), meaning that each racial group within a country must be characterized separately. Germany once had a distinct cultural group in the northeast, the Prussians, but I am not sure of their racial appearance.

I know of 2 european subraces that are common in France. One can be called the 'dumpy celtic type': They have black hair, brown eyes, rounded faces with some central prominance, and creases in their face due to sagging skin. Another subrace common in France may be called the 'duck type': They have a projecting upper lip, a rounded upturned nose, often pale skin, and hair that is blonde, red, or brown. Both of those types occur in France and not Germany, meaning that both types were originally celtic-speakers, as distinguished from the Franks.

There is a racial type common in Germany that has a rocky, rounded skull with little facial flesh. That may be the prussian type.

I haven't seen any physical difference. The only difference I've been able to see since I've lived in Germany is that French people can't drive.
