France
Treaty of V. gave them land from Germany on the border between France and Germany and Alsaquirainne. Thought the treaty should have been tougher on Germany. They got a lot of money from Germany and were happy that the German military was disbanded.
France taken over by Germany, split into two. Free French underground, headed by Charles de Gaulle. Was part of Allies, based in London. Also Vichy government. Led by Marshal Henri Petain, followed Hitler. Let him control the Southern Part of France, allies to the Nazis.
Leader helping them - They built the Maginot Line. Concrete border along border of France/Germany. Machine guns, underground hospitals, underground food etc. France had a defensive approach. Germany just attacked France through Belgiam, where they had very minor protection.
China
Treaty of V. didn't really impact them. Lost a little land to Japan. Leader was Mao Zedong (communist) and Chiang Kai Shek (nationalist). Had a Cival War. But during WWII they joined together, but after they went back to the Cival War and Mao Zedong won. Now China is communist. In WWII China was part of the Allies. Lost alot of people, cities were destroyed.
THE RAPE OF NAN KING___ A jillion people were killed by Japs, and many women were raped.
