This German military leader served with distinction as a fighter pilot in World War 1 and went on to become the commander of the Luftwaffe or German Air Force from 1935 until the fall of Nazi Germany?

The German military leader you are referring to is Hermann Göring. He achieved fame as a highly skilled fighter pilot during World War I and later rose to prominence as the commander of the Luftwaffe, the German Air Force, from 1935 until the end of World War II. Göring played a significant role in the Nazi regime and was one of Adolf Hitler's closest associates. After the war, he was tried at the Nuremberg Trials and sentenced to death.


Who called World War 1 the fall of eagles?

I don't know if World War I has ever been referred to as the "fall of eagles". I do know that there was a BBC TV miniseries aired in the United States in 1974 with that title. It dramatized the last years of the Hapsburg (Austrian), Hohenzollern (German) and Romanov (Russian) royal families. It ended with World War I and the destruction of these three empires. There was a companion book of the same name by historian C. L. Sulzberger issued in conjunction with the series.


What was the string of French and British bunkers along the the German border?

The string of French and British bunkers along the German border was known as the Maginot Line. Constructed primarily by France in the 1920s and 1930s, it was a series of fortifications designed to deter a German invasion. While it included various bunkers, artillery casemates, and underground tunnels, the line ultimately proved ineffective during World War II as German forces bypassed it through Belgium, leading to the fall of France in 1940. The Maginot Line symbolizes the limitations of static defense strategies in the face of mobile warfare.

Why were Germans referred to as huns in ww1?

Ironically, it was Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany, who first linked Germany to the Huns. Speaking in 1900 to German soldiers waiting to sail to China to help lift the siege of Peking in the Boxer Rebellion, Kaiser Wilhelm told his troops to fight “like the Huns under their King Attila a thousand years ago” so that “the name of Germany shall become known in China to such affect that no Chinaman will ever again dare so much as to look askance at a German.” “Pardon will not be given, prisoners will not be taken. Whoever falls into your hands will fall to your sword.”
