Скачать или смотреть How Nazi Germany Forced France to Pay for Its Own Occupation

Discover the shocking truth about how Nazi Germany extracted 400 million francs every single day from occupied France during World War II. This isn't just another WWII story—it's the untold financial nightmare that turned France into an unwilling ATM for Hitler's war machine.

In this comprehensive documentary, we expose:
The hidden clauses in the 1940 Armistice Agreement that trapped France
How manipulated exchange rates gave Germany a 60% discount on French goods
The Orwellian accounting system that disguised plunder as "legitimate costs"
How French money directly funded Panzers, U-boats, and the Eastern Front
Why 400 million francs daily exceeded France's entire pre-war defense budget
By 1944, France had paid over 860 billion francs—approximately 60% of its GDP—making this the largest systematic wealth transfer in European history. Learn how currency manipulation, phantom troop accounting, and forced payments devastated the French economy for decades.
