Going back further Croatia and England even had easier qualifying groups.
Croatia had Iceland, Ukraine, Turkey, Finland, Kosovo - finished 2nd there and then lucked out with Greece in the playoff.
England had Slovakia, Scotland, Slovenia, Lithuania, Malta.
Compared to France who qualified through Sweden, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Luxembourg, Belarus. (And still only had 1 defeat - a 94th minute goal from Sweden on the road)
