Question

How did André Maginot's experiences in World War I influence his decision to push for the Maginot Line?

Answer 1

The experiences of Maginot during World War I contributed to his support of the line. He considered it a brilliant work, thinking it would deter further invasions from the East.

• The Maginot line was not fortified along the Belgian-French frontier.
• Because of the experiences of Andre Maginot in World War I, he thought that Maginot Line was very important for French defense, so he asked soldiers to make it stronger to defend against the attacks of other countries.
• Unfortunately, however, he forgot that Germans could circumvent Maginot Line to strike, and thus Andre lost the battle.
