 Historical Eastern Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Historic Eastern Germany or Ex-German Eastern Territories are the regions which had large settled German communities east of the Oder and Neisse rivers before World War II and had been part of an united Germany nation for a numer of generations.
The expansion east of the European Union (EU), means that within a few years if any German wishes to live east of in the Oder-Neisse rivers, inside the EU, will have the legal right to do so, but they will have to pay market prices to rent or purchase property.
Until the Treaty on the Final Settlement, the official government German view of the status of areas vacated by settled German communities east of the Oder-Neisse rivers was that the areas were "temporarily under Polish [or Soviet] administration".

 Hitler's War; Hitler's Plans for Eastern Europe
As this item of the political programme went into effect, the german national lists began to contain, apart from a relatively small group of real Germans, the names of thousands of Poles in the annexed territories that were put there either compulsorily or under the threat of terror.
These territories were to become an integral part of the Nazi Reich (the so-called New Reich) "for all time." Both in area and population they amounted to almost half the territory of the Polish state occupied by the Reich in 1939.
With the rise of modern German imperialism, which accompanied the rapid economic development in the 19th century, the field of ambition was considerably widened.

The 8,250,000 Germans who fled or were expelled from postwar western Poland - formerly East Prussia and the eastern part of prewar Germany - made up a vociferous, organized group, but lost much of their influence since the German-Polish Treaty of November 14 1990, giving official recognition to the postwar German-Polish frontier.
German Chancellor Helmuth Kohl at first opposed recognition of the Polish-German frontier and thus the inclusion of Poland in the unification conference, because he feared to lose the votes of those Germans or their descendants, who came from the German territories awarded to Poland in 1945.
German, Austrian and Hungarian politicians, as well as the press of these countries, question the legality of the Benes decrees and demand compensation, while Czech and Slovak public opinion support opposes it.

 19th Century Acculturation of the Brethren
Elders of the German Baptist Brethren of Pennsylvania Eastern district were invited in 1898 to attend a meeting for the expressed purpose of founding an institution of higher education, and a committee subsequently recommended Elizabethtown as their choice location.
Eastern Brethren were strongly aligned through tradition, supervised by the Eldership and predictably looked to Annual Meeting as a place to settle matters of discord.
Western Brethren were more loosely aligned through a common mystic of survival in a harsh and unforgiving territory, and did not esteem Annual Meeting with the same degree of passion as their eastern counterparts.

 Encyclopedia: Erika Steinbach
But calling the area 'Occupied Poland' is equally as wrong as calling it 'Liberated Germany' would be: fact of the matter is that only after 1945 was there a clear border between Poland and Germany, and that only because anything remotely German was forcefully expulsed from the eastern side of the Oder-Neisse line.
The article contains factual error in following sentence: One of her aims is to build a monumental center against force migration in Berlin, devoted to the ethnic cleansing of about 15 million Germans from Eastern Germany after the war as well as other victims of ethnic cleansing.
Nevertheless, there is big difference between disputed territories and occupied by war means territories annexation.

 Russian Volunteers in the German Wehrmacht in WWII
During 1943 the number of volunteers in the eastern formations increased allegedly to some 800,000.(19) In September of that year, a new blow fell upon these formations.(20) According to exaggerated comments on German reports, Soviet troops broke through German lines chiefly because of the "treacherous" behavior of the Russian volunteer formations.
The next step taken by the German Commands in the east behind Hitler's back was the organization of voluntary military troops, called "Osttruppen," clad in German uniforms and designed to guard communication lines, fight Soviet partisans in the rear of the German armies, and sometimes even hold less important sectors of the front.
The German armies were delaying the transfer of their eastern troops to General Vlasov's command; Many of these formations were by then destroyed or had suffered heavy losses on the western front.(36) The leaders of the German economy were protesting against the recruiting of [eastern] workers to the Liberation Army.

 Germany's Expellees and Border Changes - An Endless Dilemma? Look into one of the least-known chapters of World War II history. By John Dornberg
The idea of expelling Germans from territories on which they had lived for centuries had its origins with Czechoslovakia's Eduard Benes, shortly after he had resigned as president because of the September 1938 Munich Pact and gone to London where, later, he established the Czech government in exile.
Actual expulsion and deportation of Germans from central Poland and the new territories started in April 1945, and from Czechoslovakia in May. All told, some 7.5 million from today's Poland and the Russian part of East Prussia were affected by flight and expulsion, of whom an estimated 1.4 million died or were killed en route.
Their basic message, right up to the 1990s, was that the Bonn government must never give up its claims to former ethnic-German territories in Central and Eastern Europe and must never accept the Oder-Neisse line as Poland's western frontier.

He considers the work of the Cause in Germany of primary importance; the German believers not only have the fertile field of their own people's minds to cultivate, but must, eventually, do a large part of the teaching work to be carried out in the future in Central and Eastern Europe.
Its significance lies in the stirring and inspiring vision it portrays of the importance of the spiritual destiny of Eastern Europe and the ex-Soviet Union, and the many examples of the Guardian's penetrating insights into world events and the ethos of the times in which he was writing.

Or else we can view it as a lie, because it is no secret that from 1970 onwards, Fatah, a fascist organization tracing its roots to the German Nazis and Hitler's Final Solution, and with a “Moslem traditionalist approach of jihad,” had taken over the PLO!

Whether one ascribes the first fusions of Western music with rock and fusion to Ravi Shankar or Shakti preeminently, both must be mentioned if one is talking about the meetings of western and eastern music in a fusion context.
The varying styles falling under this umbrella were influenced by both German experimental electronic music and the psychedelic rock and beat of the late 60s.
As jazz disseminates by way of fusion, that is, by it's merging with, at first, conventional styles like rock and folk, and later with its encounters with both Western and Eastern styles and modes of music, it also leaves its base for waters uncharted.

 Re-ordering Europe’s Eastern Frontier
There remained, however, a place where Polish national feeling would be channeled into the idealization of another institutionalized multi-national co-existence; where the multi-ethnic koinè of the Eastern borderlands would be preserved as ideal and practice, only now with better postal service: it would be the home of the Emperor’s peoples, Habsburg Galicia (Figure 2).
The Curzon Line thus came to identify the maximum territorial reach of Soviet political influence in Europe and in the years to come provided "both a reference in the discussion on state boundaries in Eastern Europe and a political rationale for the new Soviet boundary" (Kordan 1997: 705).
Should Eastern Galicia become an independent Ukrainian republic, then the first Curzon variant would be accepted; should such a republic not be recognized, then the second variant, which was further east and included L’viv (Lwów) would serve as Poland’s border (Figure 3).

 Expulsion of Germans after World War II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Even before former German territories were captured by the Red Army, around around 2 million Poles from the east half of Poland (behind the Curzon line) were expelled by the Soviets to Poland (if they were "lucky") or gulags in Siberia (otherwise).
German citizens remaining after the war, some of whom had become German citizens during the war, were expelled from areas in present-day Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Kaliningrad Oblast, and other
After the end of the war, Poland had lost its eastern territories to the Soviet Union, and these people needed housing.

Historic Eastern Germany or Ex-German Eastern Territories are terms which can be used to describe collectively those provinces or regions east of the Oder–Neisse line which were German until 1945.
The eastern expansion of the European Union (EU) means that, within a few years, any German who wishes to live east of the Oder–Neisse rivers inside the EU will have the legal right to do so, although they will have to pay market prices to rent or purchase property.
Much of the German-speaking population which lived east of the Oder–Neisse line that had not already been evacuated by German authorities or fled from the advancing Red Army in the winter of 1944–1945 was expelled without compensation, including those who were members of families had lived in the region for generations.

 Historical Eastern Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Historic Eastern Germany or Ex-German Eastern Territories are terms which can be used to describe collectively those provinces or regions east of the Oder–Neisse line which were under the administration of a unified German state from 1871 until 1945 and were recognised as part of Germany by the majority of the international community.
The problem with the status of those territories recognised as German by the interntaional community between 1871 and 1945 east Oder–Neisse rivers was that in 1945 the concluding document of the Potsdam Conference was not a legally binding treaty, but a memorandum.
The territories to the east of the Oder–Neisse line which in 1871 were included in the German Empire were East Brandenburg, Silesia, East Prussia, West Prussia, Pomerania and Posen.

 Oder-Neisse line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1945, under the territorial changes demanded by the Soviet Union, the border was moved westward into pre-war Germany, to the Oder-Neisse line, encompassing most of Silesia and Pomerania, including Szczecin/Stettin, on the west side of the Oder, plus eastern Brandenburg within Poland.
Several groups did consider the territorial changes and the associated German expulsion to be a humanitarian disaster, however.
Potentially relevant factors to post-war Polish-German borders were German annexations in 1939 that exceeded German borders from 1914 and the decision of the Soviet Union to annex areas east of the Ribbentrop-Molotov Line or Curzon Line, already approved by the Western Allies.
