Lego WW2: The invasion of France 1940 - Battle of Maginot Line

Hello to all fans of lego history and cartoons! Today on my channel is a new lego animation about the German invasion of France in 1940.
The Battle of the Maginot Line, which occurred in 1940 during World War II, was not so much a battle in the traditional sense as it was a strategic maneuver by the German army. The Maginot Line was a complex system of fortifications, obstacles, and weapons installations built by France along its eastern border with Germany. It was intended to deter any potential invasion from the east.
However, the Germans, under the command of General Erich von Manstein, executed a daring plan known as the "Sichelschnitt" or "Sickle Stroke." This involved bypassing the heavily fortified Maginot Line by invading through Belgium, which was not as heavily defended. The Germans used a combination of fast-moving armored units and infantry to swiftly penetrate deep into French territory.
While the Maginot Line itself did see some fighting, particularly in the northern sector, it did not play a decisive role in the German invasion of France. Instead, the Germans outflanked the Line, leading to the rapid collapse of French defenses and the eventual fall of France in June 1940.
