Nazi Germany was the only Axis Power present in Northern Europe during WWII. Finland is sometimes considered an Axis Power as well, but the Finns describe their acts during WWII as wars of independence and not part of WWII. Nazi Germany had invaded and conquered the countries of Denmark and Norway. Iceland was in a union with Denmark at the time, but remained free from Nazi occupation. The country was initially neutral, but the Allies eventually became present. Finland was just recently independent from Russia following World War I. Finland was an ally of Nazi Germany and supplied the country with materials. It was first invaded by the Soviet Union, an Ally, known as the Winter War. The Soviets never conquered Finland, but the Finns did cede 10% of their land to the USSR.
