Before even the surrender of France was signed regular members of French society began resisting German occupation. But the French spent almost as much time fighting each other as they did the Germans. But in the end the world saw what individuals were capable of when then gathered to resist the forces of tyranny. In one case A resistance leader proved their worth just by looking the part. “No bad, not bad. You were immediately suspected of being a spy. That’s a good start.”

In the middle of one of the biggest wars in the 20th century, and without any orders, on 25th December 1914 soldiers stopped shooting at each other. The biggest unorganized war truce in history. To quote a British officer at the time, writing to his mother: “I know this sounds like a fairy tale… But it actually happened.” With the horror of death on a massive scale, people took a break. Widely reported in the press in 1914, it would not be mentioned in a single history of the war until 1984. It has never been repeated on such a large scale.

Yet, despite all this, they built a nation-state where even the king was subject to the laws of the realm. Only in 1066, the Normans invaded… and no one would successfully invade England ever again.
