Nowrway allied with The Allies after the end of the Phony War. Norway did not side with anyone but Jews did try to hide there that's why Norway got taken over by Germany.

Answer As a nation Norway sided with the Allies, although they were quickly overwhelmed by the Nazis, in part thanks to traitors known as Quislings (after their leader Vidkun Quisling, who was hanged after the war). Many Norwegians (including their king, who formed a government-in-exile) fled to Britain and fought on. Norway was invaded to secure the iron ore port of Narvik, and for airstrips closer to the northern parts of UK.
Norway I believe was on the allies side.

The German High Command expected Britain to invade Norway and pre-empted any possibility of that by first invading Denmark and using that country as a stepping-stone to take over Norway.

Norway was, like Sweden, supposed to be neutral. Norway was invaded 1940, first by the heavy cruiser Blücher, which was sunk in the fiord of Drøbak, south of Oslo. That gave the Royal family and government a chance to hide, before going to Britain. As a militarily strategic country to have control of, Germany took control that cold, foggy night April 8th 1940.

The invasion gave Germany ports from where U-Boats and other warships could operate against Britain, and later the USA, and made it easier to obtain iron ore from Sweden during the winter, when the Baltic Sea partly froze.
