Abdul Bismilla 11pl GCSE History Coursework In 1895 a man called Count Alfred von Schlieffen who was the chief of the General staff of Germany's army devised a plan to capture Paris and then defeat France in the period of six weeks. This plan was called 'The Schlieffen Plan' and also was meant to be fought on two fronts, one in the west against France and one in the east against Russia. The plan went into action in 1914 after General Schlieffen had died. The first step of the plan was to send the German army through the north of Belgium and around Paris. General Schlieffen decided that the majority of the French army would be fighting on the western border so they would be less resistance in the north. This meant the German army would easily put aside any resistance and go around the back and then move on to capture Paris.
