Question

After 1941, Germany ruled some areas like Poland through direct annexation, but most of occupied Europe was run by German officials:
- Large offices
- Help from the Allies
- Local collaborators
- Italian helpers

Answer 1

Answer:

Local collaborators

Explanation:

Germany had a large, strong, well trained, and well equipped army, but that still was not enough so that they can be all over Europe and control everything themselves. In order to be able to keep things under control and their goals to be achieved, the Germans depended a lot on local collaborators. Some of those collaborators were from the occupied countries, while some were smaller countries that had allied with the Germans. Some of the countries that were helping the Germans in their goals were the Hungarians, Bulgarians, Lithuanians, Italians, Albanians, Croatians. All of them were managing to keep control with their military forces on local level, which was easing things up a lot for the Germans to make further expansion and get involved into some battles.
