What happened to the Sudatenland
1945 while most people in Britain were celebrating how they won the war, no one gave a scant regard for the millions (possily 17,000,000)in total of the expellees who were ethnically cleansed from their ancesstral lands, were they had lived for up to 800 years East of Germany, the majority of which were the elderly,women and children, their great crime to humanity was, they spoke German.
In the Sudatenland three and a half million, elderly, women, and children, were evicted from their homes at gunpiont, their property confiscated, and they were cast out onto the overcrowded roads of Germany with little money, possessions or food and left to their own devices.
It is reputed one million of them died because of the conditions.
In Usti Nam Laben, three and a half thousand German women were thrown from the bridge into the river and drowned.
If these people had been guilty of some kind of war crime, you could say fair enough, but the bulk of them were trapped in a situation, they had no controll over and could not get out of.
What part did Britain play in this period of history?
If the same situation had been applied to Northumberland, because of it,s Angle and Saxon heritage how would the British have reacted
