This is one of the topics which no one want to discuss. After the defeat of Germany in the WW2, some 12 to 13 million Germans were deported with a large number of them dying en route. The real tragedy is that Germans had resided in the Eastern European countries for hundreds of years and were considered as native to their land as the Slavs and Romanians were. The total number of Germans expelled: Eastern Germany(region given to Poland) - 7,122,000 Danzig- 279,000 Poland (pre-WW2) - 661,000 Czechoslovakia2,911,000 Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania - 165,000 USSR (pre-WW2) - 90,000 Hungary - 199,000 Romania - 228,000 Yugoslavia - 271,000
