What I mean is that Sweden was neutral in 1941-1945. It was not in war whit any country. As for the military support. If you count the selling of ammunition and old guns. Then yes Sweden did give military support to Finland. However this was not done officialy or in so large scale that the Allies or the Russians would have wanted to declare war against Sweden. Neither did Sweden engage in actual fighting whit any country or deploy its forces to fight alongside other forces. A few thousand volunteers does not count for actual military support if you compare this to the weapons and military forces that were coming from Germany at the time. So at that time the official oppinion of all the major powers was that Sweden was not giving military support to Finland and that Sweden remained a neutral country.
Also Sweden as every other neutral country was not neutral just because it was not engaging in the war. The neutral treaty was an official writen document signed whit all the major forces (USA, Great Britain, USSR, Germany) and breaking it would have had wery serious consequences.

Why? The Danish Army remained operational under the German occupation until August 1943.

A few hours in 1940 and about a day of fighting in 1943 is not enough for a new OOB in my oppinion. Denmark as a country whit free will and political power did not exist during the time of German occupation so it should not be in the game, at least during the years of 1941-1945. I doubt the Danish Army was nothing more than a national puppet for the people to keep them happy. I cant see that they could have really attacked Germany or Sweden under the Danish flag in those years. Bottom line is that Denmark had capitulated in 1940.
IMHO every country in-game should seize to be available after they were conquered or turned neutral. Whatif scenarions can still be created using the Editor even if the country is unavailable for a random battle at that date.
