Vichy France, officially the French State (État français), was the pro-Axis government headed by Marshal Philippe Pétain from 1940 to 1944 during World War II. It was based in the small city of Vichy, but Paris remained the official capital of France. From 1940 to 1942, while nominally the government of France as a whole, Vichy only fully controlled the zone in southern France not occupied by German military forces, while Germany occupied northern France. Following the Allied landings in French North Africa on 8 November 1942, southern France was also occupied by the Axis on 11 November 1942 through the enactment of Case Anton. The Vichy government remained in existence, but was reduced to a puppet government by Germany. After being appointed Premier of France by President Albert Lebrun, Marshal Pétain ordered his military representatives to sign the armistice with Germany on 22 June 1940. Pétain then established an authoritarian regime when the National Assembly of the Third Republic granted him full powers on 10 July 1940. At that point, the French Third Republic was dissolved. Calling for "National Regeneration," Vichy reversed many liberal policies and began tight supervision of the economy, with central planning a key feature. Labor unions came under tight government control. There were no elections. The independence of women was reversed, with an emphasis put on motherhood. Conservative Catholics became prominent. Paris lost its avant-garde status in European art and culture. The media were tightly controlled and stressed virulent anti-Semitism, and after June 1941, anti-Bolshevism
