Mailer tanks is a really good site for finding obscure vehicles from wwI, wwII and the interbellum. There are some other sites that you might find interesting.
Also you might want to correct the spelling of the names of some countries. For example my country is called The Netherlands.
EDIT: www.waroverholland.com has a lot of information about the German invasion of The Netherlands. They also have a lot of information about the equipment of the Dutch army:

Deployed more than 25,000 men, played an important role in the Italian campaign, and:
During the eight months of the Italian campaign, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force managed to take 20,573 Axis prisoners, consisting of two generals, 892 officers and 19,679 other ranks. During the War, Brazil lost 948 of its own men killed in action across all three services during the Italian campaign.
I'm not trying to downplay Brasil, but Dom Pedro II stated explicitly that it would bebetterto post non-european uniforms. I can understand why somebody would like to see less well known uniforms but not why it would be better. Some European countries in your list are also not very well known or played an unimportant role. (like my own country)

The netherlands played a major role not only because they shot down a third of the planes that atacked them, put so much resistance up that the germans called it a disaster and then going onto the most successful resistance and arguably stopping the invasion of britain; it was actuly at war
I don't think I've ever seen photos of the Albanian army in WWII before.
"The fact is that every war suffers a kind of progressive degradation with every month that it continues, because such things as individual liberty and a truthful press are not compatible with military efficency."
-George Orwell, in Homage to Catalonia, 1938.
To be fair, the performance of Dutch forces at Rotterdam was admirable, holding a city not considered to even be part of Dutch defences with a handful of scrap and 12 105mm guns. The police, and even store owners got involved in the defences at first!
Don't be fooled by the garrison size of 7000 Dutch, Rotterdam was a training and administration centre and only 800-1100 of its 7000 strong garrison were combat soldiers.
