    What I find interesting but can’t seem to figure out is the Netherlands is not coloured in, nor is Norway. Both of which the Nazis occupied at the time.

    edit: Neither is Greece or Southern France, though southern France might be explained by the fact it was technically a collaborationist government with quasi-satellite state staus.
