They moved from Germany to the Volga river in Russia to become farmers on the rich soils of the volga river in Russia Recruited as immigrants to Russia in the 18th century, they were allowed to maintain their German culture, language, traditions and churches (Lutheran, Reformed, Catholics, Moravians and Mennonites). In the 19th and early 20th centuries, many Volga Germans emigrated to Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas, California, Washington and other states across the western United States, as well as to Canada and South America (mainly Argentina and Brazil). Ja - die Geschichte ist mir bekannt. Die Option in Staaten der USA auszuwandern war sicher klug. Später unter Stalin wurden viele Wolgadeutsche und am Schwarzen Meer lebende Deutsche enteignet und nach Kasachstan und Sibirien deportiert, da Stalin Angst hatte die deutschstämmigen Menschen würden mit deutschen Truppen kooperieren. Ein schlimmes Kapitel Weltgeschichte. Ich persönlich kenne viele Familien die später aus der Ukraine und Kasachstan nach Deutschland ausreisen durften. Ganz liebe Menschen, die über Generationen hinweg alte deutsche Traditionen beibehalten haben - mit neuen Dingen vermischt haben. Ich bin mit einer Litauerin verheiratet (Opern-Solistin) - da war der Kontakt schnell vorhanden. Was auf deutsch ein Problem war, da hat russisch geholfen. Menschen aus anderen Ländern oder Kulturen sind am Ende ein Gewinn ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
