Question

what two countries were in the phoney war

Answer 1

The "Phoney War," also known as the "Sitzkrieg," refers to the early phase of World War II, particularly from September 1939 to April 1940, when there was little actual fighting on the Western Front following the invasion of Poland. The two primary countries involved in this period were France and the United Kingdom on one side, and Germany on the other. During this time, although both sides were technically at war with each other, there was minimal military action along the French-German border, leading to the term "Phoney War."
