Hitler attacked Holland (or, The Netherlands) in 1940 for two reasons. First, his vision for Europe included total control of all potential aggressor-nations by Germany. Second, moving into Holland served as a key piece of the deception involved in the German invasion of France. France, he reasoned correctly, would fall more easily if Holland itself were to be attacked, as well.
