Eventually more than 20 countries were on the side of the Axis;Japan, Hungary, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Croatia, but also Siam (Thailand) were among them. Some Nazi-occupied countries: (Holland, Norway, Denmark) sent "legions" actively fighting for Germany on the Eastern front. Finland's situation was explained well by another answerer. Romania switched sides in 1944 and lost more people fighting the Nazis than it did it did fighting on the Nazis'side. Some notoriously Fascist regimes (Spain, Portugal) refused to actively fight for the Axis and basically only spied for Germany&Italy.

Japan, Romania, Hungary, Croatia, Slovakia. Finland was not a formal ally of the Germans and was listed as a Co- belligerent rather than an ally. The Finns were fighting against the Russians entirely for their own reasons & once they had retaken the territory lost to the Soviets during the Winter War essentially stopped aiding the Germans in any way. The Soviets aknowledged this difference at the end of the war by handling the defeated Finns much more gently than the other nations they defeated.

Axis refers to alliances formed among Germany, Italy, and Japan beginning in 1936 and continuing in their cooperation during World War II (1939-1945). One of these alliances was often called the Rome-Berlin Axis to suggest that all Europe rotated about a line between these two capitals. Six other countries joined another Axis alliance and became Axis satellites. These countries were Albania, Bulgaria, Finland, Hungary, Romania, and Thailand. The inability of the major Axis powers to forge an effective alliance helped the Allies win World War II.

No way. They declared war on Britain which I don't recall the French doing. Any French person would be offended by the idea that they were an 'ally' of Nazi Germany. They were under a puppet government run from Vichy. The Italians ultimately surrendered to the Allies - but only because they were losing and finally ditched Mussolini - but not soon enough. You really do need to get a bit clearer picture of what was going on.

In terms of nation states only one has not been referred to by those posting above, as far as I can see.

"Ally: To place in a friendly association, as by treaty"

The Soviet Union.

The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact of Aug 23, 1939
(also other titles) went well beyond its public declaration of a mutual non-aggression agreement.

This was seen in the invasion of Poland, where Soviet forces also attacked into that country on Sept 17th 1939.

Pictures are to be found, (see URL below) of German and Russian soldiers and leaders in happy company with each other.

The alliance was destroyed when German forces invaded Russia on June 22nd 1941

This early alliance was a major influence on events in 1939-40, and had longer term effects particularly for the status of Finland which, not having changed enemies from 1939-41, found itself instantly on the Axis side as the Soviet/German situation suddenly reversed.

Hungary, Rumania and Japan were on Germany's side. Vichy France was a puppet in the Furher's realm also.

Japan was the third Axis power.

There are details about the Axis powers in the link in my source list.
