Germany and the Huns were not the only people starting war with the Danish community, in 1807 Britain under the command of General Wellington bombarded Copenhagen which caused the whole of Denmark to cede its navy and as a result the Danish and French were to become allies.
In 1813 – 1814, Denmark was to have many major problems with the country going bankrupt due to the fact an alliance was made with Napoleon and with great warships, Denmark did not have a chance to supply a similar fighting force.
Top Fact: Whilst no wars still continue between these nations, the economy only started to re-stabilise in 1980 after finding their footing through farming and distributing the goods throughout the world but despite it, it will still need a lot of economical growth to support all the countries residents.
