O knihe
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A national redoubt is a general term for an area to which the (remnant) forces of a nation can be withdrawn if the main battle has been lost-or even beforehand if defeat is considered inevitable. Typically a region is chosen with a geography favouring defence, such as a mountainous area or a peninsula, in order to function as a final hold-out to preserve national independence for the duration of the conflict.From the middle of the 19th century until 1914 the fortress city of Antwerp was the official National Redoubt of Antwerp in Belgium, and until 1940, the 'Fortress Holland' was that of the Netherlands, although in neither case did the 'redoubt' prove defensible - even though the same area of Holland proper did manage to stop the advances of the French troops in the Rampjaar 1672, providing the Dutch with much-needed time to eventually gain the upper hand. In 1940 Brittany was briefly considered as such in the last stages of the Fall of France, but again proved impractical.
