Elle consistait en une alliance avec des pays situés du côté opposé (ou dans le dos) d'un adversaire direct, permettant ainsi d'ouvrir un second front encerclant l'adversaire et donc de rétablir un équilibre des puissances.

alianza por conveniencia / era el pilar fundamental de la defensa francesa


Explanation:
Creo que las traducciones literales en este caso no funcionan (ni alianza de revés, alianza dorsal, o de costado o flanco). Hay que optar por una que cuadre más con la situación geopolítica de ese período histórico.
