The war in Western Europe began on May 10, 1940. Germany had been successful in Poland in 1939. With the East secured, Germany set its sights on Western Europe. France dominated Western Europe, and seemed well qualified to use all of its defensive power to halt the Germans.

Why was there a need for order and protection in Western Europe?

It depends on what time period you are referring to. Once the Roman Empire fell, which had controlled Western Europe for almost 1,000 years, Western Europe was in complete chaos and was shot into the Dark Ages. This is because this area had become accustomed to being ruled by the Romans and the empire just crumbled by Barbarians. They then lived in constant fear from the Barbarians, as wars waged on and terror swept over the people. World War I was one of the deadliest wars in history, fought mainly by the Great Powers of Europe (Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Russia). It was escalated by France and Germany, who sought alliances to bring each other down as they were foes. The Western Front was a scene of stalemate during WWI and was extremely deadly. It left Western Europe in ruins, but after an Allied victory, France sought to rebuild and to form a defensive line against Germany in case of a future war. Their predictions came true and Germany invaded France in 1940, during World War II. There was no more stalemate on the Western Front and France fell to Germany in just weeks. Once the Allies got back on their feet again, they had to destroy France to kick out the Germans, which they ultimately did. So again, France and Western Europe were in ruins. After both devastating world wars, France looked for a solution to avoid another deadly war, especially with Germany. The end result was the formation of the European Steel and Coal Community, which eventually became the European Union: the first supranational organization in the world.
