From Oz to Oslo

Nice post, I grew up with the stories Jewish Persecution during WWII

Tho in school I don't here much about that part of Europe during WWII and before it, I herd more about the other parts of Europe. I still wonder why there is hardly any if at all anything about Norway and the other countries around it.

II. World War II, 20 Century is the second of two wars around the world. Six years, the uninterrupted time in various parts of the world war II begins with a showing. World War II, when German armies invaded Poland on September 1, 1939 is assumed to start. However, they seem disconnected from each other prior to this date conflicts also play a primary role in the war between the strategic goals of the party takes place, the beginning of the war are historically earlier. By some historians and experts, I. World War II and even more are seen as the final showdown. Turkey, in April 1945 on heavy pressure by the Allies entered the war.

French Prime Minister Reynaud, in Parliament increasing the tension and the referendum on the secret Stuttgart radio (the radio, the German cooperation with a French operated by was being. Stuttgart traitor as the name referred to the French, after the war, was captured and shot is) provocative publications proliferating open discontent to remove the standby policy abandoned to be more dynamic and wanted to try a policy forbidding. For this purpose the government of London, the Swedish steel to prevent drain on Germany to Norway to convinced a decal. However, the Germans treated before allied forces, April 9, 1940 morning to Norway, the sea to Denmark and attacked for road safety. Invasion of Norway in the strategic objectives of the iron ore imported from Sweden is under way to secure and create base for submarines in the Norwegian fjord. Denmark surrendered quickly, while Norway showed resistance. June 10, 1940, Norway also surrendered. Allied to play gambling in Norway, a military defeat and end with a moral collapse, while the Germans occupied Norway in a country where prisoners were brought to the state. April 24 was given to the Norwegian government and the orders of the commissioner in the National-Socialist-led government was formed Quisling'in. Reynaud government council in the face of the insecurity in May 9, Chamberlain's government resigned on 10 May. German attack on the same day, unexpectedly returned to the west. Reynaud took back his resignation immediately, instead of Chamberlain, Churchill, the British cabinet was installed. Dark and disastrous day for Europe and the world began. Belgium surrendered in the May 27.

Norway I. Remained neutral in World War II. II. Also intends to remain neutral in World War II, although on April 9, 1940 was occupied by Nazi Germany. On May 8, 1945 until Germany's surrender in Norway was occupied. In 1949 Norway became a member of NATO. Norwegian waters in the late 1960s discovered oil and natural gas wealth to Norway won a major. The people of Norway in 1972 and 1994, a referendum rejected the European Union membership. Norway, the European Union in its relations with the EFTA member institutions through their remains. Norway, according to United Nations reports today, in terms of living standards is one of the world's most advanced countries.

I never knew of the invasion on Scandinavian countries, I always thought they were left alone and neutral during those years. Your post is very interesting and informative. I enjoyed learning little more about the land of my ancestors. I recently join opera cause I saw the unique and creative personal pages that were being built and I had to become apart of it.

I have a little bit of historical knowledge unabating ma

Very interesting to read, learned more then in many history lessons combined :-)

I think it is not interesting to read on to explore and I love to read in

Anonymous writes: This "Celal" completely ruined this page. What was not covered was the thousands of British Soldiers who died at the beginning of WWII trying to defend Norway. And hence the xmas tree in Trafalgar Square in London is always donated by a grateful Norway in recognition of the sacrifice and friendship of the two nations. I think more should be said about that.

France and Britain is responsible for the rise of nacism in Germany.After WWI they imposed heavy sanctions against the war torn country.Instead of rebuilding destroyed country and make friendship they wanted to take revenge on germany.War battered German economy simply couldn't withstand it.Inflation sky rocketed.People have to use transport wagan to take large sum money that was needed to buy their daily goods.
So when Germans woudn't be allowed to rise their head in a good way,they had to take thier only option,the bad way and allow German racism to rise and nod to trend of nacism.So Hitler came and Got the heading "Great German Nation" and "Purity of Aryans".So they throw off the those post WWI treaties and construct a Economically and millitoraly powerful Nazi Germany.
And then began the wipe out of innocent jews in the name Great Aryan empire.Those bloody post war treates made the way for deaths of millions of jews and also other people of european countries.
