Why Germans break through the Maginot Line?

The Germans did not actually break through the Maginot Line; instead, they bypassed it during World War II. The Maginot Line was a defensive fortification built by France along its eastern border to deter German invasion. However, in May 1940, the German military executed a rapid invasion through the Ardennes Forest, which was less fortified, allowing them to encircle French forces and render the Maginot Line ineffective. This tactical maneuver ultimately led to the swift defeat of France.
