Why was the battle of somme fought in northern France?
Because the Somme is a river, situated in northern France. And why was the Western Front of WW 1 mostly situated in northern France? Because the Germans had hoped to invade through northern France (thereby avoiding the bulk of the French troops, who were situated in eastern France) and then push on to Paris and western France. But the Germans were fought to a standstill in northern France (that was the Battle of the Somme) and they never managed to break through for the rest of the war.

What did schlieffen plan depend on?
The Schlieffen plan (in my opinion) was more or less a last ditch effort by the German infantry to break through the enemy lines and recapture France. They planned to invade all along the Western front, from Belgium down to having infantry swarming France through Switzerland. It depended mostly on enemy defensive positions at these locations (where the Germans assumed it would be easiest to get through since there was no artillery in neutral countries such as Switzerland and Belgium). However, when Germany spread its troops across the Western front instead of concentrating on core areas such as Passchendaele and Ypres, the allies were able to push back closer to Berlin, so the Schlieffen plan was a total military failure.

What was the result of the d-day invasion?
The result to the invasion was that it successfully gave the Allies a foothold on Nazi occupied France. The Germans were forced to retreat in a matter of hours. However the cost of Allied lives was high at around 2,500. It was not nearly as many as the losses in the Pacific. Taking the islands such as Okinawa, over 12,000 Americans were killed. The Death Day invasion accomplished its task of starting the Allies push against the Nazi superpower and not long after the Allies were able to regain control of much of the land the Nazis had taken and later overall helped end the war.
