The Holocaust - Germany invaded Norway and Denmark

Time: Tuesday Apr 9, 1940

Place: Norway and Denmark

Details: Germany invaded Norway and Denmark on 9 April 1940, during Operation Weserübung. Denmark was overrun so quickly that there was no time for a resistance to form. Consequently, the Danish government stayed in power and the Germans found it easier to work through it. Because of this, few measures were taken against the Danish Jews before 1942.
