Who were Britain's allies in world war 2 in Europe?

Answer 1

Several European countries joined the Western Allies at different times during World War 2. In total 19 European countries joined the Allies from 1939 to 1945. The very first European countries to join the Allies and which were the original Allies were Poland, United Kingdom and France. The alliances between these three original allies pre-date WWII. After WWII other countries joined the Allies: Norway, Belgium, Luxembourg, The Netherlands (these four countries joined as "governments in exile"), Greece, Kingdom of Yugoslavia, Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia. Later on during the war other European countries joined the Western Allied Forces: Italy, Democratic Federal Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, San Marino, Albania, Hungary and Finland which was the last European country to join the Allies during the war in 1945 as co-belligerent.

The USA joined the Western Allies in 1941 after the attack to Pearl Harbour.

Answer 2

Its a long list. But it remains a stain on Britain that we declared war against Finland because they were supported by Germany in their unequal fight against the Russians. Many countries supported the UK by having their nationals enlist in British forces, particularly Poland & Norway. Of all the neutrals perhaps Spain was the least cooperative. It has to be borne in mind that virtually all of Europe was occupied by the Nazis & their supporters at one time or another. The costly attempt to defend Greece, by moving troops from North Africa, was hoped to draw Turkey into the war against the Axis.

Answer 3

US, USSR, UK, and France
