The France of 1940 serves as a warning to the world. Scarred by devastating casualties in the First World War, they invested heavily into the Maginot line, a massive boondoggle to fortify their border with Germany, but the military bureaucracy and political class did not think to extend it along neutral Belgium. The dysfunctional socialist government was focused on everything but winning the next war, and managed to build a monument to the battles of the past – and the stupidity of man. When the Germans invaded, their tanks merely outflanked the French fortifications. Nothing could stop them from rolling into Paris.
