The Deep Dive
After the fall of Paris during World War II, the leader of the German puppet state established in France was Philippe Pétain. He headed the Vichy government, which collaborated with Nazi Germany. Pétain had previously been a national hero for his role in World War I, but his regime became infamous for its collaborationist policies and suppression of resistance movements. This period was marked by significant tensions as many French citizens resisted Pétain’s government, leading to a complex web of alliances and rebellions. The Free French Forces, led by Charles de Gaulle, emerged as a counter to Pétain's leadership, aiming to continue the fight against the Axis powers and restore the French republic.
