In World War 1, France was entirely on the side of the Allied Powers. In World War 2, the country was divided by the Germans after the occupation of 1940. The southern half was called Vichy and it was a puppet government of the German occupation. The Northern half was entirely under German control but the French government was in exile in London until Paris fell in August 1944. France was part of the Allies during WW2 and they landed in Normandy at Gold Beach and it was the French 2nd Armoured Division which liberated Paris.
