France entered World War II following the German invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939, which prompted Britain and France to declare war on Germany on September 3, 1939. Although France had a defensive strategy in place, it was largely unprepared for the speed and tactics of the German Blitzkrieg. In May 1940, Germany launched a rapid invasion through the Ardennes, leading to the fall of France by June 1940. The swift defeat resulted in the occupation of much of the country by German forces.
