No, Finland was not occupied by Germany during World War II. Instead, Finland was a co-belligerent with Germany against the Soviet Union from 1941 to 1944, primarily to regain territories lost in the Winter War. While German troops were present in Finland, particularly in the northern regions, Finland maintained its sovereignty and operated independently. The relationship was complex, as Finland sought to achieve its own goals while aligning with Germany against a common enemy.
