During World War 2, Britain was somewhat susceptible to aerial bombings. Because of this, the government deemed parts of the country as safe for evacuees, and others as unsafe, and needing to be evacuated. Priority was placed on evacuating away from urban areas and into rural areas.
The Britons sent their children, elderly, handicapped and some mothers to the rural areas and some coastal areas when they evacuated them from the large cities or areas where there was war manufacturing or airfields. There were sent to places where there were farms such a Yorkshire or to the mountains in Scotland.
The Australians sent them south to the more rural areas or small towns away from the areas the Japanese had tried to bomb such as Darwin.
The Europeans sent people to other countries or to rural areas. Once the Allied Forces were bombing Germany the Germans fled by the millions and were not part of an official evacuation plan. They went anywhere they could find a place to escape the bombings and still survive.
Following their lose in France British troops retreated across the English channel at the straight of Dover. The most famous extraction point was Dunkirk.
