The Quisling regime, or Quisling government are common names used to refer to the fascist collaboration government led by Vidkun Quisling in German-occupied Norway during the Second World War.[2][3][4] The official name of the regime from 1 February 1942 until its dissolution in May 1945 was Den nasjonale regjering (English: the National Government).[2] Actual executive power was retained by the Reichskommissariat Norwegen, headed by Josef Terboven.
