 Four-Power Authorities - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The territories east of the Oder-Neisse line (East Prussia, Eastern Pomerania and Silesia) were removed from Germany and put under Soviet and Polish administration, effectively shifting Poland westward; this administration was originally intended to last until a final peace treaty was to be signed, which however did not happen until 1990.
A transfer of Germans from Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary was agreed on, but the countries were urged to stop the expulsions of these Heimatvertriebene.
The intended governing body was called the Allied Control Council.
