The Allied Forces Act of 1940 authorized the governments of Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Luxemburg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Yugoslavia, and the Free French to form, train, and maintain military units on British soil. These units would be commanded by the country's own officers, with their own flags and military law. In addition these countries were encouraged to set up, on British soil, their own courts of law, schools, religious institutions, and newspapers. In addition to maintaining their military and civil institutions, the countries agreed to allow allies to use their technology and resources, such as the Norwegian Navy, which at the time was the fourth largest in the world. This act has been seen by many historians as a precursor to the United Nations.
