The Netherlands was the one of the ways Nazi Germany got into France. Do you now of the wall the French built, the Marginot line I believe it's called. This was a line of fortifications that was built in between France and Germany. The Germans got past this obstacle by using the same tatic they used in WWI, through what is considered the low countries. The Netherlands was apart of this. Another reason is because of Hitler's goal of world conquest.
