Was Finland part of Russia after World War 1?
No. The two countries were allies from 1941-44. Finland allied itself with Germany because Finland was trying to get back areas lost after the winter war. The continuation war was the second finnish war with the Soviet Union.First one was winter war 1939-1940
Sweden remained neutral, it did not participate in the war and was not attacked. Sometimes allied bombers which could not make it back to England would land in Sweden which, as a neutral power, was required under international law to imprison their crews until the end of the war. There is some controversy about Sweden's sales of iron and various goods to Germany - and also to Britain. Sweden allowed the Germans to use their railways which aided in the invasion and occupation of her sister country, Norway, which had also attempted to be neutral. I traveled extensively in Norway during the early 70s, and the WW2 generation never forgot that about Sweden. Put yourself in Hitler's or for that matter any in the German high command's shoes. What does Sweden offer in terms of strategic or tactical warfare? Nothing. In order to fight the British, the only useful country is Norway, which the Germans took. As far as the Soviet front was concerned , Hitler found an already willing ally with Finland. So why disrupt matters by sending German troops into a country which is militarily useless but economicaly important because of their iron production? The best way to handle the measure is by doing business with Sweden, not attacking them.
Why didn't Hitler attack Sweden?
The simple rason: He got EVERYTHING he wanted from Sweden! He got his troops movement through the country, no questions asked. And so on. Sweden had alot of 'friendly toughts' about the Nazis during the war. Even as high up as within the royal family, not to mention all the industrialists, who saw Germany as a business partner!
Actually, it was, at one time, forbidden for Swedish newaspapers to publish anything negative about Nazi-Germany!

Some of the top Nazis were given help by the Vatican! See the link below. There were probably many ways for them to get smuggled out of Germany. Some material that I've read said that General Skozeny helped some escape through Italy. He wa, the German general who commanded the special English-speaking commandos who infiltrated the US lines at Battle of Bulge.

Why was Oskar Schindler able to hide Jews right under the noses of the Nazis?
He didn't exactly "hide" them. In the movie Schindler's List, he starts out wanting to buy an enamelware factory so he can continue his lifestyle of money, wine, and women.
Schindler hires Jews because his account, Stern, tells him, "They're cheaper than Poles." Schindler didn't want to spend a ton of money on workers, but after seeing the ghetto being liquidated (emptied) and the horrible, nauseating treatment Amon Goeth bestows upon the Jews, he begins to find ways to bring as many Jews into his factory as he can.
It's a really great movie, and it really helps you understand the Holocaust from a different point of view. I would suggest it if you're interested.
