Romania stopped being an ally of Germany and was then occupied, 1944-5.
"During their Eastern Front offensive of 1944, Soviet troops occupied Romania. The northwestern part of Moldavia was occupied through fighting from May to August, while Romania was still an ally of Nazi Germany. The rest was occupied after Romania changed sides in the war, as a result of the royal coup launched by King Michael on August 23, 1944. On that date, the King announced that Romania had unilaterally ceased all military actions against the Allied forces, had accepted the Allied armistice offer, and had entered war against the Axis Powers. As no formal armistice offer existed, the Red Army occupied most of Romania as enemy territory prior to the signature of the Moscow Armistice of September 12, 1944."

The Channel Islands may not be regarded as a nation by some, but they are not part of the United Kingdom as such. Nor is the Isle of Man. They are subject to the British Crown, but not to the British Parliament except in regard to matters of defence and some international relations. The Channel Islands consist of the Bailiwick of Jersey, the Bailiwick of Guernsey and the Seigneury of Sark. As such they form part of the former Duchy of Normandy (Remember Willian the Conqueror?) Somehow when the mainland of Normandy was lost, the islands were retained. They aren't strictly part of the European Union, either (nor is the Isle of Man).
"With the 1944 Allied invasion of southern France and the subsequent German withdrawal Andorra interned trapped German troops. By an odd twist of fate Andorra fought Germany in World War One and never saw German troops but was occupied by them in World War Two, where it was obstensively neutral."
