- cassepipe 6y agoBeing downvoted for providing the link to what parent is referring to? Seems unfair.
- TheHypnotist 6y agoThe link doesn't even work.
- hef19898 6y agoAh, they didn't really. The Maginot Line held, and they knew they needed to stop the Germans at the Belgian / German border. That the invasion of France ended the way it did was a surprise to everyone, including the Germans. Mainly you could boil it down to better command and control all the way from strategic to tactical and luck on the German side and the opposite, bad luck, bad cooperation and bad communication on the allied side.
- samus 6y agoSo, basically like in the 1870s? Back then, the French hat better weapons (guns, cannons and gatlings) and technically even a defence strategy, but bad coordination on both strategic and tactic levels lost them the war.
