Yes. From the start of the Nazi invasion on April 9, and occupation ended May 8, 1945.
I do not know the answer, but there's probably a very good chance that it was conquered.
Yes. Germany invaded Norway on April 9, 1940. Norway lost in 2 days.
Norway capitulated (Though Norwegian armed forces countinued fighting the Germans until the German capitulation the 8th of April 1945) on 10 June 1940, two months after Wesertag, this made Norway the invaded country which withstood the German war machine for the second longest time. Only the Soviet Union provided the Germans with a more prolonged fight.
Norway was strategically important for two reasons. The first was iron ore. The Germans had to have iron ore to make steel, for the many uses a modern military requires steel, such as tanks and ships and u-boats and artillery shells, and so on. The main German source of iron ore was Sweden, from mines in the far north of Sweden. In the warmer months of the year this ore could be loaded on ships in northern Sweden and make the trip down the Baltic to ports in northern Germany. But during the winter months the northern Baltic was frozen, and the only way to get the iron ore out was by railroad, over the mountains into Norway, to the Norwegian port of Narvik. From there the ore could be placed aboard ships to travel down the Norwegian coast, then into the Baltic to northern Germany.
The other reason Norway had strategic importance was its coastline on the Atlantic, which offered the Germans places from which to operate their surface ships and especially their submarines against Allied shipping in the Atlantic. After France was captured submarine bases were built on the French coast, which diminished the importance of Norway as a potential submarine base. The Germans craved Atlantic ports as sub bases so their u-boats would not have to slip out of the Baltic through the narrow strait between The Danish and Scandinavian peninsulas, and because ports on the Atlantic were much closer to the subs' hunting grounds, saving fuel on the trip which added days to the time a sub could hunt enemy shipping, and saving time going to and from the base.
The British recognized these facts which made Norway attractive to the Germans, and planned their own operation to occupy Norway, to deny it to the Germans, and to cut the flow of iron ore. That was especially crucial, as the Germans were totally dependent on the Swedish ore and without it, their war machine would be fatally crippled. The British and Germans both lunged for Norway at almost the same time, and fought there for a time in 1940, but the Germans soon won and forced the British to withdraw. The Germans remained in Norway until Berlin fell and the war ended.
Norway was invaded without warning by Germany in April 1940. In northern Norway fighting continued, with British involvement, till June 1940. Norway did not surrender. The royal family and government fled to London, nd there was an active resistance movement against the Nazis.
