The Maginot Line (Encore)

Episode 1704 Published 1 year ago
Description

After the First World War in France, many generals thought that the end of the war was really just a pause before another war began. They wanted to make sure that the next time war broke out with Germany, they were ready and could never be invaded again. 


To that end, they created a series of defensive fortifications they believed to be impregnable. 


Spoiler alert: it didn’t work. 


Learn more about the Maginot Line, why it was built, and why it failed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
