France, 1940: Abandon Paris to not ruin it.
Also France 1944: Maybe just a little gunpowder scent to the mix
It was actually abandoned by the German Commander of the city. He had orders from Hitler to use scorched earth tactics in Paris but refused to follow through with those orders.
For those who are confused with Spain in the Liberation of Paris, they were Spanish Republicans in Exile, not the Nationalists where Francisco Franco is ruling spain. They were also under the French Division Army as well.
Yes socialists, criminal pack, like the nazis too. So what you want to explain?
Spain actually wanted to join Germany & Friends but Hitler deemed them as not useful enough
@@mattc9598 Not true as far as I know. Admiral Canaris a friend of Franco said to him not to join the war becasue he knows its already lost.
@@mattc9598Nope, Franco's Spain avoided war, in fact, it asked Togo to join the Axis, knowing that it was a former German colony, so the Germans left them out of their plans.
Yep. There were Spanish who sided with the Axis too, they were under the Division Azul or Blue Division
The Germans when occupying France forgot about the good ol' revolutionnary chop chop tradition in Paris.
Lol. The French resistance is a joke.. they only resisted when it became obvious that the Germans were going to be pushed out by the allies
😂😂😂
Pockets of resistance at the beginning really held their own
yeah, the Germans weren't doing too hot at this point of the war and most of the units posted in Paris were "excuse me, who?" units with poor training and limited equipment.
20,000 troops is nothing for a city the size of Paris.
It's cuz Paris isn't really a strategic position
I mean that’s completely wrong, the troops in Western Europe at this point in the war while not experienced in combat were not poorly trained or having limited equipment, they had access to a vast amount of leftover French equipment and vehicles. Who told you such a blatant lie and shame on your for spreading it without checking to make sure you knew.
They were freshly graduated soldiers sure but Germany was not cutting its training. towards the actual endseig when Germany was enlisting anyone from the elderly to 13 year old boys is when the quality actually plummeted.
For those wondering what's happening in Paris before the arrival of the Allies : there was a strike on all the stations of the SNCF, it soon became a general strike (We always keep traditions alive (don't insult me I am French)) and a revolt
You drop this, Emperor 🏳️
I always heard that the French resistance was pivotal to the success of D-Day but I can't ever find any information on it, do you have any keyfigures or key events(like, named events) I can google to learn more about this?
@@praetor4118 I learned in a documentary that there was a operation I don't remember the name : Everytime the colour green is cited even indirectly, the resistants needed to sabotage the railway network, the one of the 6th June 1944 was "les dés sont jetés" (idk what it is in English), a sabotage around Lyon was strategic because the German troops were not able to come on the front. The resistance sent positions of the enemy troops during all the war. So they were important in the war. The railway was a strategic transport so "cheminots" sabotaged their own locomotive since the SNCF was under the German control. So they were important for the success of Overlord (Débarquement en Normandie like we said in France)

Ikr
Hitler and German high comand did not intend to hold the city so no reinforcements were sent, instead Hitler ordered city to be destroyed and left, but the comander in field ignored the order.
If I remember correctly, Hitler order the garrison commander to basically raze Paris to the ground before the allied forces arrived but he ignored the order and prevented the city’s demolition
Oui c'est ça et Hitler à demandé après " Paris brûle t'elle"
Dietrich von Choltitz
@@TenOrbital oui c'est lui
Some historians disagree, he may not have the forces to destroy paris with the insurrection.
There is actually no proof of that except the commander's own words. He probably said that to make himself look good after his surrender. There was absolutely no plan, ressources or means to do that and no official order.
Oh yeah, I remember that in Steel Division Normandy 1944 (a game made by a French studio), the French 2nd armored division have Spanish troops in their ranks.

lots of things i didnt know i found out today, once again a great video
I guess the French flag with crosses are the pockets of resistance, the Free French. The ones that moved in are the French troops that evacuated.
If you're referring to Dunkirk, most (if not all) of those French troops were sent right back to France to defend the nation, hopeless though the situation was. They were swiftly captured and disarmed. It took years to re-establish the French army, mostly with troops from French colonies in Africa. Oddly enough, the first "French" troops to reach Paris were actually mostly Spanish exiles under French command.
@@Cailus3542 sent back or they went back on their own volition?
@@Cailus3542That's not true. Taken from the 2nd Division Blindée's wiki (the one that liberated Paris).
"The division's 14,454 personnel included men from the 2nd Light Division, which included escapees from metropolitan France, as well as 3,600 Moroccans and Algerians and about 350 Spanish Republicans"
Therewere many people from the colonies in the French Army but not the majority and especially not in this division
@@t.g.5256 French 2nd Light Cavalry Division?
@@anonnimoose7987 "The division was formed around a core of units that had raided Italian Libya at the end of 1940 and Tripoli in 1943 under Leclerc, but was most known for its role in the fight at Kufra in 1941; later renamed the 2nd Light Division, in August 1943, it adopted the same organizational structure as a US light armored division."

The number of troops on both sides is as if this is not a battle for Paris, but for a random village.
It wasn't a strategic objective for the allies nor Germany.
@@tonyhawk94It was strategic, victory over Paris meant a French Revenchism or not, the difference between this battle and other great city was the necessity to not destroy it, and proof it was not necessary, you just have to look at other great city during the war, Berlin had less than 100 000 German inside defending hit, half where unequiped militia, and 450 000 Soviet, the city was leveled, Paris was moslty intact (ecen thought the N*** tried to destroy it.)
@@leflunch9697 The fact that it remained intact or not doesn't make this battle strategic haha and France wan't in a place where it could be revanchist anymore in any case.
@@tonyhawk94 It make it strategic when it's the first major city to be freed, and when the Allied Command didn't bombard it DUE to the fact it was valuable, and revanchism was present, the numbers of French Soldiers multiply after the Liberation of Paris.
Even though yes, for Allied Command the city being encircled was sufficient enough, the Armée de la Liberation, and French people needed the city freed to truly act.
@@leflunch9697 Yes so it was important for France, naturally, not for the allies. :)
Just goes to show how ridiculous it was to even call it a battle at all, 20,000 tropps is nothing to defend paris sith at all. The Germans didn't want to keep it.
just the same as the d day then.
Casualties on the allies side was what? 5000 persons. And a bout the same on the German side. If you look at the civilians killed by air raids bombs the previous day to prepare the landing, which was 20 000 civilians killed, or if you compare that to the Paris liberation , the d- day was even more uneventful. The Germans did not want to keep their positions. All the rest is propaganda to give grandeur to the anglo world and its superhero complex.
The truth is that the war was already lost (won by the Russians at the expense of 20 millions casualties) and the Germans were retreating to Berlin where the Russians were doing much damage, or about to .
@@sylvaincroissant7650 has nothing to do with the Anglo world, our people were tricked into fighting a war they had no quarrel in and subsequently they've kept a culture alive of worshipping the false war narrative.

@@wesleyjaskulsky9414 No, they didn't. That map is incorrect. The allied forces approached the city from the (south) west. The first unit that entered Paris was the 2nd French Armored Division that came from Argentan (west of Paris).

Now miraculous tales of ladybug and cat noir crying for not saving paris 🤡💩
wait we took paris from the south?
The Allies did not only invade occupied France from Normandy. There was also a campaign rolling up from Southern France after Italy has been secured.
The first American unit to enter Paris was the 4th Division who came into France on Utah Beach, they entered through the south using the RN 7 road
None of these troops could have entered France from the south with the liberation happening only 10 days after the landings in Southern France, and Italy wasn't secured until the German instrument of surrender was signed on the 8th May 1945
Spain wasn’t the second Spanish Republic it was Nationalist Spain
Former Spanish republicans were part of the Free French forces. They formed their own company in Leclerc's division.
Nationalist spain joined the axis with the blue division, only fighting agaisnt communist russia, the spaniards in paris were exiled republicans
Compare this with the Warsaw uprising. On second thought, no.
If there is one day I'd like to time travel to, it's Paris the day it was liberated. The joy, the elation, the feelings!

@@WadaZable They were not allowed. They did it despite having orders not to do it. It's the opposite of "allowed", in fact.

Most pivotal moments in history
Not really, like at all
@@doteleven5890It was, the victory over Paris meant the first great city of Europe to be freed from German Influence, and gave France rhe boost it needed, after this, the French Army became large enought to be in the top in size. . .the mobilisation speed was impressive.
@@leflunch9697The city was of little importance to the Allies, which is why they sent only three divisions and 30,000 infantry to take Paris
@@doteleven5890 It was not of "little" importance, it was just not a strategic point to capture, just encircled, and they sent troop just to support the paris uprising, Allied High Command didn't wanted to commit too much to not destroy the city, as it would have been problematic
@@leflunch9697 They actually were reluctant to take Paris due to Hitler saying if there was an Allied attack, they would "Not give Paris to the Allies if it was not complete rubble." The only reason the order was not carried out was because the general in charge of the defense of Paris surrendered before any fighting could happen.

The French did not participate in a major battle against the Germans And what the German General Keitel said sums everything up when he said: “Even the French are here... all that was missing is this.” And even Stalin refused to grant it the status of a major state in the war, and it was not summoned at the Yalta Conference, the Tehran Conference, or the Casablanca Conference. Even the Americans initially refused to grant them a permanent seat in the Security Council
Battle of Dompaire the French 2AD inflicted the heaviest single day loss of panzers on the Western Front when it crushed the 112. Panzer Brigade.
The French fought in the Battle or France of 1940, allowed the possibility of the Operation Overlord and was the fourth larger allied army in 1945 with 1.5 million men. Sorry buddy, while it's true that France was defeated quickly, some part colaborate and wasn't one of the major allied countries, it did fight in major battles.
El alamein monte cassino liberation of Paris operation dragoon Colmar poche ? Don't recognise the nationalist German that Said this.
Battle of France was a major battle.
France facing Germany alone while all the others cowered.
Of course that other powers tried to undermine France and profit from it's defeat.
It didn't worked tho, and France is still a major player.
Do you know the story beetween Trueman/Roosevelt and De Gaule before typing your bs? Us wanted to make France a US State, De Gaulle didn't let them, that's the main reason why he wasn't at Potsdam and why 2 days before Overloard he was putted aside... And btw France was a major protagonist of Italy and Africa Campaign, they sent soldiers in the Eastern front also, and fought after the liberation in Netherlands, Germany...De Gaulle and some french generals were on the major commands... Next time instead of typing your stupid hateful propaganda do some research and give some respects to the vet...
After liberating Paris with an army that was mostly Moroccan and Senegalese, they French paraded German POWs in French uniforms through the capital. Can't present blacks as heroes, you know.
citations needed. also the north african troops were well known and infamous for a series of rapes in france and italy.
@@alperkaanbilir1776 This army was in majority in the Southern front in France the one in the north was all from Metropolitan troops.
This is fake news, they were paraded during the liberation.
Also, many colonial troops were composed of European settlers.
2024: most of Paris is Moroccan anyways
@@biwnzixebrxb4786 Nope. There are some three million Maghrebis (Moroccans and Tunisians) and half-Maghrebis in France, around 4% of the population. But they feel more populous for the same reason people tend to overestimate the transgender population. They're different and visible.
You walk the streets, you see a Arabic speaking guy, a minute later you see another Arabic speaking guy; and a minute later yet another one. And you go: Hey these Arabs are everywhere! But within the same two minutes maybe two hundred white people passed you by, talking in French; but you weren't conscious of their speech, it was just normal background noise to your mind.
maybe french people will rise up and liberate themselves again one of these days...
