The '''Maginot Line''' was a very elaborate line of military built on the eastern border of [[France]] to defend against an attack from [[Germany]] in 1928-39.  The Line failed in May 1940 when Germany went around the line from the north, through Belgium.  Indeed, the line greatly hindered France's war effort because so much heavy equipment was cemented into the "line" and could not be used when it was bypassed.
