The Battle of France, also known as the Fall of France, was the German invasion of France and the Low Countries during the Second World War, beginning on 10 May 1940, defeating primarily French forces. The battle consisted of two main operations. In the first, ''Fall Gelb'' (Case Yellow), German armoured units pushed through the Ardennes and then along the Somme valley to cut off and surround the Allied units that had advanced into Belgium. When British, Belgian and adjacent French forces were pushed back to the sea by the highly mobile and well-organized German operation, the British government decided to evacuate the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) as well as several French divisions at Dunkirk in Operation Dynamo.
After the withdrawal of the BEF, Germany launched a second operation, ''Fall Rot'' (Case Red) on 5 June 1940. While the depleted French forces put up stiff initial resistance, German air superiority and armoured mobility overwhelmed the remaining French forces. German armour outflanked the Maginot Line and pushed deep into France with German forces arriving in an undefended Paris on 14 June. This caused a chaotic period of flight for the French government and ended organized French military resistance. German commanders met with French officials on 18 June with the goal of the new French government being an armistice with Germany. Chief among the government leaders was Marshal Philippe Pétain, newly appointed prime minister and one of the supporters of an armistice.
On 22 June, an armistice was signed between France and Germany, which resulted in a division of France, whereby Germany would occupy the north and west, Italy would control a small Italian occupation zone in the south-east and an unoccupied zone, the ''zone libre'', would be governed by the Vichy government led by Marshal Pétain. France remained under Axis occupation until the occupation of the country by the Allies after the Allied landings in June 1944.
==Prelude==
Following the German invasion of Poland in September 1939, a period of inaction called the Phoney War (''Drôle de guerre'' in French, "joke of a war", or ''Sitzkrieg'' in German, "sitting war") set in between the major powers. Adolf Hitler had hoped that France and Britain would acquiesce in his conquest and quickly make peace. On 6 October, he may have made some type of peace offer to both Western powers. Even before they had time to respond, on 9 October, he also formulated a new military policy in case their reply was negative: ''Führer-Anweisung N°6'', or "''Führer''-Directive Number 6".〔Shirer 1990, p.715〕
