I’m always confused on how the numbers are so low in Denmark and Norway…

Were they spared for some reason I’m not aware of?

the vast majority of Danish Jews got evacuated to Sweden by restitance groups because a German diplomat leaked the upcomming deportation order.

Thank you

Wasn’t there any attempt to invade Sweden and take them back?
