Yeah because if I’m not mistaken the germans who were “ethnically cleansed” in this case were simply being kicked out of the places that they ethnically cleansed themselves as part of lebensraum in eastern europe. As in they went eastward to invade other countries, kill the native inhabitants, and steal their land.
*edit: apparently there were also a bunch of germans who were living in the area pre ww2 called “sudeten germans” or something who were technically “ethnically cleansed”, main reason why germany supports zionism is that germany was never truly denazified
there were sudeten germans, volga germans, danube swabians, transylvanian saxons, a thousand little medieval leftovers dotted all over the eastern half of europe.
well, ok, danube swabians are from the 1700s, not the middle ages. they’d been brought in to repopulate lands left empty after 2 centuries of war with the ottomans. that’s settlering, but much earlier than the 20th century and IIRC they didnt kick anyone out to get their land.
hmm, the volga germans are also from the 1700s. anyway, some of these communities were super old.
Nope other than the fact that some people called “sudeten germans” were “ethnically cleansed” from hungary or something because the vast majority of them were Nazis.
with a lot of german anti-slavic racism
Yeah idk whether “ethnic cleansing” is even an appropriate term for what happened given the differences in circumstances between this incident and other actual genocides of white/jewish supremacist ethnic cleansing.
Around 600CE the slavic speaking world went all the way to the elbe river. So everything east of Hamburg today was slavic. There were also a lot of germanic anti-slavic crusades.
prussians in modern polish territory and baltics i believe. Now whether they were collaborators or just passive observers os another matter, on the second basis whole europe should have been cleansed.
Man, all that and the Germans still didn’t learn not to support states engaged in ethnic cleansing?

Do you know anything about the history of (south-)eastern europe pre 1939?
It’s quite a complex and interesting history (with a lot of german anti-slavic racism)

Knowing nothing about anything i’m going to say they were in modern Czechoslovakia because that’s where the sudetenland is
Yeah that czechs out given what other users are saying itt

Poles settled in prussia as well, hell they even invited the teutons in the first place.
