Maréchal Pétain
Philippe Pétain was a French general and statesman who became the leader of Vichy France during World War II. He is best known for his controversial collaboration with Nazi Germany, which led to his eventual trial and condemnation for treason after the war. Pétain's regime implemented policies that included the persecution of Jews and the suppression of resistance movements. His legacy remains highly contentious in France, as he is viewed by some as a national hero for his role in World War I and by others as a traitor for his actions during World War II.
