| | | | | German exodus from Eastern Europe: Encyclopedia II - Ethnic cleansing - Origins of the term This originally applied purely to military enemies, but came to be applied to ethnic groups as well. It was used in this context in Yugoslavia by the Serbian media as early as 1981, in relation to the policies of the Kosovo Albanian administration allegedly creating an "ethnically clean territory" (i.e. "cleanly" Albanian) in the province[1]. However, this usage had antecedents.
The earliest known usage of it may been in May 16, 1941, during the Second World War, by one Viktor Gutić, ...

| | | | | German exodus from Eastern Europe: Encyclopedia II - Ethnic cleansing - Early examples of ethnic cleansing The Assyrian Empire regularly deported entire ethnic groups, as did the Babylonians; victims of this policy most famously include the Israelites of Israel in 722 BC and the Israelites of Judah in 586 BC (see Babylonian captivity of Judah).
In some instances, the expulsion of Jews had some features of ethnic cleansing, especially if accompanied by violence and enacted on the whole territory of the state. Jews were expelled from England (1290), France (1306), Hungary (1349–1360), Provence (1394 and 1490), Austria (1421), Spain after t ...

| | | | | German exodus from Eastern Europe: Encyclopedia II - Ethnic cleansing - Ethnic cleansing as a military and political tactic The purpose of ethnic cleansing is to remove the conditions for potential and actual opposition, whether political, terrorist, guerrilla or military, by physically removing any potentially or actually hostile ethnic communities. Although it has sometimes been motivated by a doctrine that claim an ethnic group is literally "unclean" (as in the case of the Jews of medieval Europe), more usually it has been a rational (if brutal) way of ensuring that total control can be asserted over an area. The campaign in Bosnia in early 1992 was a case in ...

| | | | | German exodus from Eastern Europe: Encyclopedia II - Silesia - Name of the region One theory claims that the name Silesia is derived from the Silingi, which most likely were a Vandalic people, who supposedly lived south of the Baltic Sea along the Elbe, Oder, and Vistula rivers in the 2nd century. When the Silingi moved from the area during the Migration Period, they left remnants of their society behind.
The most evident remnants are in the names of places, which were adopted (in Slavic form) by the new inhabitants, who were in fact Slavic (Polish Śląsk, Old Polish Śląžsk [-o], Old Slavic *Sьlьąžь ...

History of Germany - Nazi revolution or 'Seizure of Power'.
In order to secure a majority for his NSDAP in the Reichstag, Hitler called for new elections. On the evening of 27 February 1933, a fire was laid in the Reichstag building.

This decree, which would remain in force until 1945, repealed important political and human rights of the Weimar constitution. Communist agitation was banned ...
