(a) the Nazis abolished Danish civil government at the end of August 1943,
(b) the Nazis attempted to round the Danish Jews up about a month later, but were largely foiled by the resisting Danes' emergency work to get their Jewish citizens away to Sweden.
I feel like this is consistent with a story about the greater will of democratic regimes to protect their voters, since it was action taken in resistance to the new nondemocratic government, and so soon after the displacement of the democratic government.
On the other hand, it also suggests the impact of cultural differences. Unlike the Danes, the Hungarians imposed various civil disabilities on Jews even under their own government, and made no equivalent effort to save their Jewish citizens from death once the Nazis had taken direct control of Hungary in 1944.
