France in world war 2
World war 2 started in 1949 when Germany decided to invade Poland. Germany soon gained control over Poland and that made France declare war on Germany. That small war did not last long. Soon France was invaded and captured by Germany who then controlled France for almost the rest of the war. two fifths of France was for French citizens and refugees from other countries while three fifths was for the german soldiers although all of France was controlled by Germany . France joined the other countries like Australia, Britain, Poland and New Zealand against the war of Germany. The man who was most responsible for Germany declaring war on so many other countries was Adolph Hitler. Hitler and many other men believed that Germans were racially superior and other countries and people who had different religions and beliefs (especially jewish people) where an alien threat to there organization Hitler had a goal that he and other Germans would be in control and everyone would have blue eyes and blond hair even though he didn't have blond hair him self. They killed thousands of Jews and other people in very crude and horrific ways.
