France - The Treaty of Versailles gave France land from Germany. They got money from Germany for war reparations and they were pleased that the military couldn't function. France thought that the Treaty of Versailles wasn't harsh enough on Germany though. France had a constitutional monarchy government during WWII. Charles de Gaulle was leader of the Free French Underground and later became leader of the country. France got attacked by Germany and was taken over by the Nazis during WWII. France also had a Vichy government and it was led by Marshal Henri Petian. This government was ran by Nazis as well. Maginot Line was a concrete barrier that held machine guns to keep enemies away along with tunnels and hospitals underground. France wanted to keep Germany out of their country and the they weren't mentaly prepared to go into this war. They thought if they gave Hitler what he wanted that they could stop the war from coming.
