1914 was the year World War I began, at that time all available Germans were needed back in their homeland. Pre-occupied with their involvement under the Dictatorship of Hitler, the Germans were to resist fighting in the locality of the South Pacific against the NZ Expeditionary army acting under British authority. At that time, German armoured cruises SMS Scharnhorst and SMS Gneisenau (German East Asia Squadron) arrived to Germans Samoa but were also surrounded by the invasion of Allies in the ocean, and therefore, they backed off.

Why didnt the Danish army fight the Germans when they invaded Denmark number the stars?

The Danish army did not have the military capability to resist the German invasion in 1940. Denmark was also concerned about minimizing casualties and potential destruction to their country by not engaging in a futile fight against the larger German forces. Additionally, the Danish government hoped that cooperating with the Germans would protect the Danish population from harsh reprisals.


Was the schlieffen plan successful why or why not?

The schlieffen plan was not successful because of poor execution. Their leader concentrated too much on the center of French troops and took away troops from the channel. The troops that went through belgium, by the channel, but the Germans thought the belgians would just surrender. But the belgians stayed and fought and slowed down and depleted troops. Since this plan needed to be executed in a timely fashion the Germans failed when they didnt account for how fast Russian troops mobilized, how slow they moved through belgium, and how they concentrated too many troops on the French by the Argon Forrest.
