Did the Netherlands fight with or against Germany during World War II?
The Netherlands were invaded on May 10, 1940, and four days later, the government went into exile in Britain. The Netherlands was one of the countries that made up the Allies …of World War II. They fought just as any other occupied country. After Germany occupied the Netherlands, there were some Dutch collaborators, but for the most part, the Germans had to contend with Dutch resistance fighters. (MORE)

What side was the Netherlands on in World War 2?
The Netherlands was technically neutral in WWII as it was in WWI. However, it was invaded by German forces and was completely occupied. Some Dutch forces escaped and fought wi…th the Allies in Europe and forces in the colonies, like Netherlands East Indies (now Indonesia) fought against the Japanese with the Allies. So, one could say, the government-in-exile declared war on the Axis forces. (MORE)

What war is World War II?
In World War II, Adolf Hitler led Germany (and allied Japan & Italy) to wage war on the rest of the world, including Britain, France (defeated), Russia, USA, Australia and man…y others. He cited the humiliation Germany suffered at the end of World War I to rally the German people and he began taking over Europe. The war basically started when Hitler invaded Poland. He had been taking small areas of territory the Germans owned before World War I for a while. But once Poland was invaded, the Allies finally declared war on Germany. Hitler quickly defeated France and began a long siege on Britain. Getting nowhere, he attacked Russia (who was bound by a pact with Germany not to fight). Hitler found he had stretched his resources too thin, and when the USA joined the war, he started to lose his grip. Eventually, the Allies took Berlin and Germany was defeated. Hitler comitted suicide. Meanwhile, in the Pacific, Japan had been attempting a similar 'world domination' strategy. The Japanese allied with Germany & Italy, as they all had similar goals and hatred for the Allied powers. The USA, China and Australia were the main countries fighting mostly in the Pacific. Although Germany had been defeated, Japan continued fighting. But then, the USA dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This scared the living daylights out of the Japanese and they surrendered. Also during this time, Hitler was persecuting Jews all over Europe. This was known as the Holocaust, where Jews in their thousands were taken from all the countries Hitler conquered. They were put into concentration camps where they were tortured and mass murdered, with poison gas. (MORE)

What was the role of the Netherlands in World War I?
As my knowledge is limited, this answer has to be a beginning, until someone with greater knowledge adds additional input. During World War 1, the Netherlands, was a sovereign… nation which claimed to be non-aligned, and therefore openly traded with either/both sides. However, it became [I suspect to avoid conflict with Germany] an unwilling but necessarily very cooperative, close ally of Germany. Obviously the normal products of the Netherlands, which were needed by, and could be used by, Germany were provided. One of these would have been the animal and vegetable food and manufacturing raw material products produced by the Netherlands. Probably most significant, as the Netherlands was/is a great seafaring nation, their seaports became a tremendous asset to the German supply chain. One product, regarding which I have personal knowledge passed down through family members, is that of SULPHUR, a naturally occurring element which was an absolutely necessary component [in tremendous quantities] for the manufacture of munitions. All through the war, Netherlands industry/businessmen openly purchased oreship loads of United States' Sulphur [from "Sulphur Mines, Louisiana, near Lake Charles], had it shipped to the Netherlands's ports, where it was downloaded to railroad cars, and then transhipped directly into Germany for the production of munitions! Although efforts were made to stop this practice, to my knowledge, it continued throughout the war. I suspect also, that much of the Netherlands manufacturing production was dedicated to the interests of the German cause.j3h. (MORE)

What were the damages of World War II?
Japan had their country nearly all burned up and leveled due to incendiary bombing campaigns and the two atomic bombs dropped on them. They had to suffer from the radiation ef…fects for decades. They still have a team of Japanese and American studying and dealing with the effects of the radiation. Europe had so much damage from the Allied bombings that it was mostly rubble in most of the cities and military sites. The villages and farmlands fared a little better. It took decades to remove all the rubble and rebuild all those nations. The population however was easily rebuilt (the US had a baby boom for 15 years too). $1 trillion USD in 1945 (MORE)
