France in WW2

That is the correct spelling of "collaborator" (colleague, co-creator).

The negative connotation of the word is for someone who aids an enemy occupation force.

The French never surrendered in WW1, they even were the main force against Germany, and 1 500 000 French soldiers died in WW1, more than any victorious nation of WW1.

In WW2, 200 000 French soldiers died defending France, but they were betrayed by the British army which retreated to the UK instead of helping the French protect Paris, and Pétain, President of France, surrendered to Hitler. He is considered a traitor in France.

The Maginot line had been built along The Rhin river. The German army broke through Belgium, (like they have already done in 1914) and through the Ardennes forest which was considered as a mountain by the french headquarter, thinking it was a natural obstacle. But it was just a hill causing no problem to German armours.

The French were easily beaten because the Army and its leaders were incompetent compared to the disiplined and well-equipped Germans.

The Turkish peninsula that was the scene of invasion by allied forces in 1915 was the Gallipoli Peninsula. The aim of the invasion was to secure the Dardanelles Strait and establish a supply route to Russia, but it resulted in heavy casualties and ultimately failed in its objective.

"Nevar" is the Spanish verb for "to snow".
The word NEVAR means snow in Spanish.

You are asking about a 20 Franc coin from Morocco (Y#50). It is made of aluminum-bronze and measures 23.8mm in diameter. The front has a five-pointed star, with designes and Arabic writing surrounding it, and the date "1371" below it (the date refers to the Muslim calendar - it corresponds to 1952 AD). The back has the denomination - "20 FRANCS" - in the center, with "MAROC" (French for "Morocco") above. There are also Arabic words below both the country and denomination - I presume that these are simply the Arabic translations, but I am not positive. It was aone-year type (that is, this design was only produced in the year 1371 AH) issued under the reign of King Mohammed V. 20,000,000 of such coins were produced, all by the Paris mint.

According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, and example is worth US$0.25 in Fine condition, US$0.50 in Very Fine condition, US$1.00 in Extremely Fine condition, and US$4.00 in Uncirculated condition.

Omaha Beach was the worst because of the terrain. Immediately back of the beach were high bluffs on which the defenders were situated in pillboxes and other fortifications, overlooking the beach. Assaulting troops had to make an amphibious landing, which is difficult even when the enemy is not present, and immediately attack high ground, which is also difficult. And the direction of their attack was completely predictable - they would be coming from the direction of the sea. The other beaches had more typical coastal terrain, with low land being immediately behind the beaches. The terrain at Omaha was the worst from the attackers point of view along the entire fifty miles of the assault area, and this was recognized before hand, but the planners could find no alternative.

Approx 500km I would say...

They get along quite well but there's a friendly rivalry between them, particularly when they are competing against each other in team sports.

The Champ (singular) de Mars is the open space between the Eiffel Tower and the Ecole Militaire in Paris. It has been used for military parades, National festivals and World Fairs, including the one in 1889 to which the Tower was the gateway. At the time of the Revolution, the space was greater; a row of houses was built down each side at the end of the 19th Century.
