Really late to the trend but I do what I want >:D Before the war, Iceland was a sovereign kingdom in union with Denmark. During the German occupation of Denmark, contact between the two kingdoms were disrupted. Iceland declared neutrality during the start of WW2. In 1940, Britain invaded and occupied Iceland to prevent potential German invasion, and to gain a strategic location. Later, the government of Iceland protested, saying their neutrality was violated. Britain offered several things to Iceland, in exchange for cooperation until the end of the war. Iceland agreed. Britain requested Canada to help defend Iceland, which they did. The United States later occupied Iceland, as Britain's troops were needed elsewhere. In 1944, the allies pulled their troops from Iceland, and Iceland declared themselves a republic. Throughout the occupation, many women had children with the allied soldiers, which would often have them seen as traitors by many. (I highly recommend you research some stuff by yourself as well!)
