Here we have a case of 'confusion of attributes' of people.
Associated with groups of human beings are certain attributes, which
allegedly unite these human beings into one thing: a people ('Volk').
Such attributes are:
- territory of settlement
- ethnic groups (tribe/people)
- religion
- language
- political affiliation
- culture
Since the National Socialists (Nazis) made extensive use of collectivism
and the term 'Volk' (people), we need to clarify, what was meant with
these terms.
The territory of the 3rd Reich (prior to 1934) was called 'Deutsches
Reich'. It was roughly 50% larger than Germany is today, but almost at
the same territory.
This 'Reich' was named after the 'Holy Roman Empire of German Nations'
and that was the Empire of the Franks.
The German Reich was actually a fraud, created by Bismarck. It was NOT
the Holy Roman German Reich, but kind of 'Opera State'.
Anyhow, that Reich was created in 1871 in Paris and fused together about
50 tiny countries into one nation.
From these Prussia was by far the largest and the dominating power in
Germany.
Prussia sounds similar to Russia, since Prussians and Russians are
ethnically related and both are part of Kiev' Rus.
Other tribes in Germany are Scandinavians, Kelts, Frisians and so forth.
None of these tribes is or was called 'Germans' (or similar).
'Germanes' was a Latin word and was used for tribes, which in most cases
have no relation to current Germany (Teutones for instance).
The German language was widely used in a certain medieval form in large
parts of Europe. (This is somehow similar to the use of English or
Spanish in the Americas.)
Religion is of importance in this connection, since there was a German
guy named Martin Luther, who translated the Bible into German.
This was the first book in wide use in German language and helped to
unify the various languages spoken in the region, which were all forms
of this medieval German.
It also created a new Church (Evangelische Kirche) and that had caused
one of the bloodiest wars in history. This was the so called 'thirty
Years War'.
Among the driving forces behind this war was the Austrian Wallenstein,
who was the leader of the Catholics.
The Prussians were almost wiped out in this war and the area, where
Berlin is now, was completely devastated.
The war ended with a peace treaty and the German territories were
divided into Catholic areas and protestant ones.
These territories were independent nations, duchies, city states and so
forth.
So: no Germany existed.
The largest of these countries was Prussia.
Then the term 'Deutsch' was used by a romantic, nationalistic movement,
which tried to unite these countries.
Austria was an Empire at that same time and France was an Empire, too.
But Germany was not and no country bearing such a name existed.
Germany was just an idea.
In 1871 they fused these nations together, after Prussian lead alliance
had conquered France.
They called this 'Deutsches Reich'.
The Bavarians did not want to join and their King heavily rejected, but
at the end Bismarck had won.
The medieval German Reich required to elect the Emperor. But since the
Empire was a fraud, the election of the 'Kaiser' was fraudulent as well.
Actually the Electors have not chosen the Emperor, but it was more like
'Do you like to have the job ?' .
The Hohenzollern King took the job and became 'Kaiser'.
This of course was a fraud. But not really and people were actually
quite happy with Kaiser Wilhelm I.
But after his death the crippled bastard Wilhelm II inherited the
thrown, in violation of the principle mentioned above.
He was actually the second in the line of succession. But his elder
brother died unexpectedly and under suspicious circumstances.
Wilhelm II did then, what also the Nazis did and spent a lot of money
for arms.
Than came kind of 'terrorist attack' in Serbia on an Austrian aristocrat
and his wife.
For unknown reasons the Germans used this as pretext for an attack on
France.
This caused another bloody war, which ended in the defeat of Germany.
Germany lost a large part of its territory and former Germans became
French and Polish.
KuK Austria lost, too, and was taken apart.
The German speaking part became what is to day Austria, Bohemia became
Czech Republik and Hungary became Hungary. The city Lemberg went to
Poland and Tirol to Italy.
With movement of these borders the population switched also the
nationality and the main language of that state.
German speaking minorities from the former Austrian Empire became
subject of suppression in Poland, Russia, Ukraine and Czech Republic.
This had nothing to do with Germany, since those were formerly citizens
of Austria.
But Germany lost, too, and parts went to Poland and to France.
German speaking minorities there were also subject to suppression and
were forced to speak the main national language.
The Czech population used the defeat of Nazi Germany as justification to
push out the former German speaking Austrians and Germany had to grant
them citizenship, since Germany was occupied.
The Sileasians were forced to leave their territory and had to go to
Germany, too.
But originally the Silesians had belonged to Austria, not to Germany.
