The French Resistance was a collection of groups that fought the Nazi occupation and the collaborationist Vichy r gime in France during the Second World War. Resistance cells were small groups of armed men and women (called the Maquis in rural areas) who conducted guerrilla warfare and published underground newspapers. They also provided first-hand intelligence information, and escape networks that helped Allied soldiers and airmen trapped behind Axis lines. The Resistance's men and women came from many parts of French society, and the proportion of French people who participated in organised resistance has been estimated at from one to three percent of the total population. The French Resistance played a significant role in facilitating the Allies' rapid advance through France following the invasion of Normandy. Members provided military intelligence on German defences known as the Atlantic Wall, and on Wehrmacht deployments and orders of battle for the Allies' invasion of Provence on 15 August. The Resistance also planned, coordinated, and executed sabotage acts on electrical power grids, transport facilities, and telecommunications networks. The Resistance's work was politically and morally important to France during and after the German occupation.
