France in WW2

There are very few similarities between Spain and Japan. Each is part of a different continent, its peoples are of different races, and they speak totally different languages. Geographically, Japan is an island and Spain is part of the Iberian Peninsula. In economics, Japan is a strong industrial technology based economy while Spain is not known as such.Perhaps one similarity is that both nations have democratic governments.

Germany had not answered the British and French ultimatums for removing troops out of Poland. On September 3, first Great Britain, followed by France declared war on Germany. It may be noted that France was not sure of its position. France had no choice, however, after Britain made its declaration of war.

The Gestapo's role in France during the occupation was varied. They tried to ID any and all allied spies and collaborators. Needless to say this was an impossible task. They were also to supplement the Abwehr in their operations and aid the SS also. If you like Star Trek, you can use the analogy of the Gestapo as the Cardasians trying to stop the Marquis (which incendently is where they got this name).

The Fall of France in 1940 meant that Germany had access to the Atlantic Ocean, circumventing the British blockade of Germany.

Siddhartha Gautama was the Buddha was the founding leader of Buddhism. He was the one that begun it since he was not interested in Hinduism.

Italy attacked Ethiopia around the time on World War 2.

The Big Three were Roosevelt (American), Churchill (British) and Stalin (Russian). The French leader you are probably thinking of was Charles De Gaulle who was the self-appointed leader of the Free French forces. He was not one of the Big Three. He could be quite difficult to work with though and what Churchill and Roosevelt would call him when nobody else was around probably does not bear repeating.

Germany took over Poland in 1939 at Warsaw. They also took over the Czech region of Sudetenland. They took over Austria also.

Marshal Petain, a French General and popular War I hero, was in effect chief of state. Petain was either executed, or died in prison, shortly after the war ( in the mid to late forties).

In 1940, Germany attacked France and occupied it. As part of the surrender terms, a portion of France would be occupied and controlled by the Germans. Other parts of France and their African colonies became ally to Germany and under their rule. Therefore, the French in Algiers had to fight any enemy of Germany or they could risk punishment from the Germans. As you may know, American General Mark Clark carried out a clandestine landing on North Africa in order to convince French General Darlan to order his troops to disarm when the Americans landed. This did not exactly happen as planned on the first day but eventually, the French soldiers laid down their weapons and the Germans could not do anything.
