The Battle of Wismar was an engagement between April 16 - May 3, 1942, at the German city of Wismar, between the European Alliance and Turkish re-inforcements and a combined host of French-Scandinavian and Danish divisions. Despite being outnumbered more than three to one, the Allies scored a massive victory at Wismar, resulting the casualties of nearly 200,000 enemies, most of whom were Danish. The battle completely gutted the ability of the Danish government to continue fighting the war and single-handedly broke the back of the small country's exhausted economy in the midst of the war effort. The Battle of Wismar led to the Allied occupation of Denmark after July, and the Allied capture of Scandinavia shortly thereafter with the victory at Uppsala in September 1942.
