The '''French resistance''' during [[World War Two]] was not a single unified movement. It was a mosaic of factions with different [[political]] goals.
The two primary groups were [[Gaullist]]s or [[Free French]], and the [[French Communist Party]] (PCF) united by their opposition to [[Nazi]] occupation and the [[Vichy regime]].
