The Netherlands

"While Dutch identification with the Jews has been exaggerated and the part played by Nazi sympathizers underrated, it is nonetheless true that the Dutch population, especially the intellectual, political and religious, by and large opposed the Nazi policies, including those against the Jews, with determination."

-Yehuda Bauer,

With 3,372 rescuers, Holland claimed more rescuers than any other country. Yet no other country in Western Europe including Germany, lost so much of its Jewish population.
