Comment on Reichskommissariat Ukraine by 1Blomma
Simply stunning as all of your maps! So, Crimea is part of Germany here? I've never been familiar with the idea myself.
Indeed, Crimea was admitted as Reichsgau Gotenland to the Reich. The different ethnicities inhabiting the island were deported to Siberia and the area was resettled with Germans from South Tyrol, which is why some of the names are reminiscent of South Tyrolean towns.
I see. Wasn't there kind of similar plan for Banat too?
Yes, the Germans wanted an 'island on the Danube' to control the river.
