Not really in defending Denmark, but in liberating it. Denmark was easily overrun by the Nazis in the early days of the war, conquered in a day or two, in April 1940. The Germans remained in Denmark until the very last days of the war in Europe. The British were on the north end of the Allied line as the allies advanced across France and the Low Countries toward Germany, and just barely beat the Soviets to the neck of the Danish peninsula, by a matter of a few hours. This saved Denmark from a Cold War behind the Iron Curtain, under Russian domination.

What countries did the allies control during World War 2?
The Allies did not "control" countries like the Axis did. The Axis occupied countries because their goal was to control the government. The Allies liberated countries, meaning they set them free from Axis rule and back into their own control. When the Allies "lost" land, it meant that they were defending another country and the Germans took that country over. When, for example, the USSR "lost" land, it just means the Germans pushed them back.
