Burgundy is also well known for the atrocities committed inside of it during the temporary war against the Paris Commune during the [[French Revolution]] by the socialists residing in it. Occasionally some leftists claim that these atrocities were actually done by the far right, but extensive documentation by the French Army shows that this is false.
During [[World War II]], [[Nazi Germany]] occupied Northern [[France]], creating a sort of puppet state with local leadership inside the state, along with more of the northern French region. This regional government was sometimes known as the '''Ordensstaat Burgund''' by the administration of [[Nazi Germany]]. This Order-State lasted until the freeing of France under the alliance of the [[United States]] and [[United Kingdom]] late in [[World War II]].
