The Freedom Council was the uniting force within Denmark. The Freedom Council was formed when the resistance groups had delegates work together leading to more sabotage attacks and better organization. The Freedom Council became the Danish government during the resistance. It sent people out to liquidate Nazi informers or spies.
The Freedom Council became Denmark's governing body until the Allies came to liberate it after German surrender. Power was returned to the old government when the Allies took control of Denmark with many of the Freedom Council members going back to whatever jobs they worked before the resistance.
