Norway: literally occupied by the Nazis.
Spain: ran by a Nazi-sympathetic fascist at the time.
Ireland: newly formed Republic that was imprisoned via colonial occupation and civil war and didn't really have any direct skin in the game.

El Caudillo (euphemism for Franco in Spain) was also most likely the most successful dictator in history. The west backed him because he purged commies (and even allowed him to enter la ONU or the UN). When he peacefully passed away, the Spanish political society did not want to prosecute anyone for being a franquista so they gave a blanket "both sides" amnesty and suppressed the crimes of el Caudillo in the education system. Then the "socialist party" dropped marxism and went succdem to neolib only to replicate american politics with their right wing counterpart the People's Party (ironic name).
Franco, a murderous fascist with delusions of grandeur, got UN membership and Palestine still hasn't.
The socialist party had become socdem in 1921.
Spain is really a shining example of how fascism returns to (capitalist) normality.
Don't forget about the "vote for the return of the monarchy, or else"
