Germans have occupied the Rhineland for a considerable length of time! I suspect that the question should be "When did Germany remilitarize the Rhineland?", the answer being 1936. The Rhineland had been made into a demilitarised zone after the Great War, under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, 1919. Germany had political control of this area, but was not allowed to put any troops into it. In 1936, Hitler ordered troops to re-enter the Rhineland, thus breaking the terms of the treaty.
Nowhere! The Rhineland was always the Rhine River Valley that covered the border between France and Germany, but it was not demilitarized until AFTER World War I in order to give France a measure of security.
In order to give France some security after having been invaded in the first World War, the Treaty of Versailles prohibited German troops from entering an area on the French border known as the Rhineland.
Germany , in violation of the Treaty of Versailles , reoccupies the Rhineland on March 7 , 1936 .
The 1936 German occupation of the Rhineland was met by Hitler's troops. Hitler created the reoccupation of the Rhineland military forces to build up his own army.
On March 7, 1936 German troops entered the Rhineland and thereby violated the treaty.
did the British began stationing regular British troops at the center of colonial resistance: Philadelphia
In 1936, Hitler decided to take reoccupy the Rhineland. It was very risky as Germany still had a weak army. France had just signed an agreement with the USSR to protect each other against an attck from Germany. Hitler used this to claim that Germany was under threat and that he should be allowed to place troops on his own frontier. He moved his troops to the Rhineland . However, France did not act against this and Hitler took full control of the Rhineland.
In 1936-37: none. (In 1936 they remilitarized the Rhineland, but as the area had remained German there was no take over). The first area that the Nazis took over was Austria in 1938.
It was against the Versailles Treaty. The Rhineland was suppose to be a demilitarized zone with no German troops. Hitler chanced putting troops into the Rhineland but fear an attack from France. He would send around 32,000 troops to be stationed in the Rhineland, to be ready if France would attack but no such thing happened. France would appease Hitler, allowing him to break the Versailles Treaty.
nooo

During the cold war, The Soviet Union occupied East Germany and East Berlin from 1945 - 1994, stationing over 300,000 troops in the country at any one time. Following the reunification of Germany, the Soviets began a gradual withdrawal of their troops, with the last ones leaving Germany on 31 August 1994.
