Iceland: *sigh* very well then *doesn't fire a shot and surrenders*

😂😂😂

The British unlawfully occupied the island and changed the way the law worked in 1944, making some things illegal that shouldn’t be.

Iceland:Resists 1 week

Many years ago I visited Iceland and went to their national museum. It was really interesting just how much emphasis they put on hating the British for the occupation, I was kind of shocked. What they didn't mention was the way they treated women who fell in love with Allied servicemen stationed in Iceland - many were stripped of their assets and effectively institutionalised as shameful rape victims. A deeply insular country paranoid of foreigners and ignorant of what German occupation would've entailed, which was the alternative.

Iceland: I am leaving NATO

"Please do not panic, you are being rescued"

You are being liberated please do not resist

"Congratulations! You are being rescued!" "Please do not resist."

Iceland: okay! *Legit makes way for the british to get off their ships in the ports*

​@@TheGilliamsthey capitulated because they didn't have any tanks

"Surrendered not Capitulate. It was a smart move to surrender so early since Denmark did not have the Manpower or the Technology to Beat germany so they surrendered as fast as they could in order to Save as many Danish lives as they could. So dont go arround saying "nO wOnDeR tHeY OnLy lAsTed 6 hOUrS" They could have survived for much longer pal. And another reason to Denmark being one of the fastest nations in all of ww2 was because of it being ONE OF THE ONLY COUNTRIES WITH NO ALLIED HELP, Poland, Norway, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Belgium and many more all got help from the allies bruh. @@TheGilliams

​​@@TheDaneOfficialWhere did you get your facts? The reason why NO ALLIED HELP was because it was before broadcast and the impossibility for the British to arrive in time AND with the German Navy already there; The British intervention of the Faroe Islands and Iceland was because it wanted to KEEP the Germans away to control more territory. They also had irregular radio communications, so what makes you think that? The Germans had already deployed the Kriegmarines in the naval bases of Norway. You might forget about the German air bombing Copenhagen and many other cities. The Royal Danish Army was warned of the attack, but it was denied to prepare defensive places as the Danish government didn't want to give the Germans any provocation for their actions. Also, stop thinking that Poland was more special. The German Navy blocked the path and Britain only had 6 regular army divisions at the start of the war, and by the time they EVEN could be transported to Poland, the Polish would be lost anyway by the intervention of the airforce and the Russians. It was their own fault to believe that the Allies would not declare war if they had set up a riverline further away so that Gdańsk could be taken freely. Even if the Norwegians got help, it was barely enough to hold the Germans out. *Read my paragraph slowly, and get real sources before saying all that.*

Poland didn't get shit from the alies, and also got attacked from the east by the Ussr, so it shouldn't be on this list

There's a movie about the one small battle for a town that happened during the invasion. As the Danish soldiers are setting up road blocks to stall the approaching Germans, people come out of their doors to go to work and are told to get back inside because the fighting is going to start in a few minutes.

my grandma experienced this

The kids knew what was goining on. I can 100 % guarantee that no kid in Denmark (aside from the German minority) would have thought it cool.

@@thething9617 doubt even the german kids living there think it was cool, i mean they lived in denmark where they werent being brainwashed by the nazis.

@@thething9617 I don't think that the local Germans would have liked it that much either

my great grandmothers parents were german, and she lived in the southern part of Denmark (Jutland) that had been german since the war of 1864 and became Danish again after the first world war, she was danish minded, but had alot of german minded friends. She was looked down upon after the war, for keeping up her german friendships and having them visiting. It was a weird period for alot of Danes in that region, bring up alot of wounds. I lost an ancestor in WW1, because he was recruited for the russian front, he was Danish minded, and hated going, but did not have a choice.

They wanted to be done before lunch

@@Sprottel_SFM well they succeded

the germans were kind of drugged up on meth so yeah, not that far off

They were on a very short time table because what is called the invasion of denmark was basically just "driving from germany to northern denmarks and embarking for norway". The land army went straight for the most northern danish airport and harbour to move on Norway, the actual goal. Denmark was the Belgium of scandinavia for the germans

For the people at the danish german border that was nothing new. That border had been moving up and down like crazy

Why did you say German twice?

@@youtuberobbedmeofmyname the Germans came from the danish lands so Germans are more danish than Danes are German

They were occupied but not annexed.

imagine that there is a film on the invasion wich takes 2 hours. and where it is mostly about the day before

I mean, they had zero chance of winning. Like there is no possible way they couldve held off a German invasion. Better to prevent your people from being butchered then to resist when its completely pointless.

@@chozer1 Germans had nothing against the Danish and the Danish were willing to cooperate quite well, so there was no need at all to murder the king.

@@ankat6756 meh, some people don’t like the fact that they are technically under people even if they get to keep much of the power they had before, some grow resentful and attempt to rebel or sabotage their conquers, plus even if they themselves don’t they can still be a figurehead head for rebelling people and can give them hope of having the same government they had before, so instead of dealing with that stuff some conquers just bonk the ruler for safe keeps.

they feared Germany will attack Iceland in order to bomb and open a front in Scotland. So they just took it over because Iceland refused to be occupied for the war only

@@aarengraves9962 No that's not the reason at all. German planes could not really reach scotland from iceland as the distance is too great, with the exception of the Heinkel He 177, but this was a bomber, and whilst you could fly that over, it would have no protection from enemy fighters. The reason the British invaded Iceland was naval. If Germany took over Iceland, then they could use it as a naval base to conduct repairs and refuelling in the atlantic. Furthermore the UK-Iceland-Greenland gap in the atlantic provides a brilliant chokepoint with which to sink any ships coming from or going to Germany, and if Iceland fell, this gap would be far more difficult to exploit.

@@mappingshaman5280 I went to Iceland many years ago (2013, I think) and they really, really didn't like the British being there. Quite a lot of their national museum was set aside for talking about how evil we were for occupying them. Strangely lacking the context of what the occupation actually was - they were allowed to retain all their political autonomy except foreign affairs, temporarily, until Germany was defeated. No mention at all of how Icelandic women who fell in love with Allied servicemen stationed there were treated. Many were assumed to be either insane or to have been raped and were institutionalised (no, I'm not joking). In some ways that insularity seems to have changed little, even in Reykjavik, met some nice people but many were extremely cold and in some cases downright rude despite me being completely polite and friendly, and I wonder if it was because I'm British (Scottish, but all the same to them I assume). I've travelled to a lot of countries and some have definitely had a cooler atmosphere than others from the locals, but Iceland was on another level, of downright hostility from some people.

@@L333gok They didn't support the British, at all. The local authorities were extremely unhappy about the occupation and viewed it as being dragged into a devastating, far away war they had no reason to be in. Iceland had no military (not even any stationed Danish units at the time) and the local police force of Reykjavik wasn't exactly going to put up a fight against a landing party of Royal Marines supported by four Royal Navy warships.

​@@shaddaboop7998 Who Cares about Locals feelings just ask Norwegians Locals when they are invaded by Germans when they Country is Literally Neutral and not sure which sides will invade them ( Norway is Confused who will invade them First Brits or the Germans ) your argument is Foolish Germany literally Occupy 5 Neutral Populous Country and your more Mad to the British invading a Backward Danish Territory in the middle of Atlantic you are in a Indeed Nazi Sympatizer and also Iceland has to Choose there Sides This War is almost in there Doorsteps and there Mother Country Denmark was just been invaded FYI: i know Iceland and Denmark at that time share a Personal union of Monarch but separate country in Governance except in Foreign Affairs and Defence so technically there Neutrality is With Denmark so when Danish surrender to the Germans Iceland & Greenland is now in Axis side so theres no way Brits will leave it alone and im 100% sure the Americans will take them if not the Brits later on.

That would take too long

My back-of-the-envelope calculation says such a video would be 70 DAYS long

Cold War (Europe only): every minute. it'd just be a still image of a map of Europe for 70 days. with a continually scrolling sidebar of political grievances, uprisings and maybe some stuff on Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan. Worth a watch.

Shows why the german idea of a fast war failed in russia. And how they lost it all by turning their economy too late into full war economy. Russia was too big for that kind of operation.

ahem *luxembourg*

Once Denmark gives the order to surrender, the German troops basically move at the speed of cars on main roads. They are just cruising through to the military facilities that they are ordered to occupy.
