After dealing with the army situation, Donnie turned his attention to Europe.
On the third day after Germany's blitzkrieg on Poland, the United Kingdom and France declared war on Germany.
But what puzzled ordinary people was that although the UK and France declared war on Germany, it seemed more like a verbal declaration, with no actual actions taken.
This was also called the 'Phoney War' or 'Strange War.'
At this time, Germany had already focused its main forces on Poland, leaving only 23 divisions to defend the Siegfried Line on the Western Front, while the UK and France had 110 divisions, over a million troops, enjoying an overwhelming advantage, yet they were not proactive in combat.
For example, the French Army's 4th Army Group initially launched a limited offensive in the Saarbrücken region, but stopped advancing after penetrating the Siegfried Line for 8-10 kilometers.
The United Kingdom only sent 4 divisions to the Western Europe Continent as well.
