Institute for Historical Review, Tomislav Sunic states. "Marshal Josip Broz Tito and his Communist Party took over their land, imprisoned them, forced them to work, and tortured/killed them.  They also striped ethnic Germans of civil rights, confiscated all of there items, and stripped them of their citizenship. They were forced out of their homeland and those who stayed behind were killed/tortured. 200,000 of them became captives of the communist regime. Some 63,635 Yugoslav ethnic German civilians (women, men, and children) perished under Communist rule between 1945 and 1950 -- that is, some 18 percent of the ethnic German civilian population remaining in the new Yugoslavia. This all happened in Yugoslavia between the years 1945-1980. They did this because the ethnic Germans   removed their allegiance from the third Reich."

The victims: The ethnic Germans of Yugoslavia and anyone who opposed Tito.   ]]> 2020-01-22 01:47:36 UTC https://padlet.com/nathan_hiller/g0jp37h70rkk/wish/434348881 nathan_hiller https://padlet.com/nathan_hiller/g0jp37h70rkk/wish/434884477 Tito executed Genocide in many different ways during the Yugoslavia Genocide, here's just some of them.
 In The Destruction of Ethnic Germans and German Prisoners of War article Tomislav Sunic claimes " This decree declared citizens of German origin as "enemies of the people," and stripped them of civil rights. The decree also ordered the government confiscation of all property, without compensation, of Yugoslavia's ethnic Germans. [4] An additional law, promulgated in Belgrade on February 6, 1945, canceled the Yugoslav citizenship of the country's ethnic Germans"
I chose this piece of evidence because it shows what methods Tito and his party used to carry out the genocide. They first turned the public against them by calling them enemies of the people and then they stripped them of rights. They also confiscated all of there property. One more thing Tito did was strip them of citizenship to Yugoslavia and force them to leave.
Another piece of evidence is this. In the opinion of Sabrina P. Ramet "Only one political party, the Communist Party, was permitted. The government took control of farms, factories, and other businesses. The Communists began changing Yugoslavia from an agricultural country into an industrial country." and "Tito kept tight control over the Yugoslav people and tolerated no opposition. In 1963, Tito made himself president for life." I chose this piece of evidence because I think It shows how Tito did this genocide. For example, it shows here how he had it so only the communist party was allowed in Yogoslavia. It also shows how Tito Controlled everything, including farms, factories, and other businesses. Tito managed to flip the nation's economy on its backside. It also shows how he ruled Yugoslavia with an Iron fist and made sure that no one would oppose him, and If they did they would be punished. To put the cherry on top, he also made himself president for life.
One more piece of evidence is from the article Yugoslavia: Post World War II which suggests that "Following the end of the war, 215,000 – 245,000 Germans were evacuated, some small number had been killed in fighting during the war, others were taken as POWs; leaving some 200,000 – 250,000 civilians in the country following the end of the war. On November 21, 1944, the Anti-Fascist Council of the People’s Liberation of Yugoslavia (AVNOJ, the Communist leadership) announced the confiscation of property of all Germans except those who had: 1) joined the Partisans, 2) married with one of the Slav nationalities; and 3) assimilated. The Communist leadership made clear their intention to expel Germans, who were seen as traitorous in whole." I think this piece of evidence is good for answering this question because it shows what Tito and his party did to carry out this genocide. 215,000 - 245,000 (about half of the ethnic Germans in Yugoslavia as the time) Germans were evacuated/forced out of there homeland to try to make it on there own. For those who remained, their property and all that they own was confiscated unless they joined them, married someone who was slav or assimilated. This made it very clear that Tito wanted them out of the country.               ]]> 2020-01-23 00:25:28 UTC https://padlet.com/nathan_hiller/g0jp37h70rkk/wish/434884477 nathan_hiller https://padlet.com/nathan_hiller/g0jp37h70rkk/wish/434889149 The people of Yugoslavia were impacted in a big way during and after the Yugoslavian Genocide. Heres some reasons why. The article Funerals and Memorials argues that "After completing elementary school, Friedrich became an apprentice and clerk in a general store, where he worked until he was drafted into the Yugoslav army. But when ethnic Germans were forced under threat of death to leave Yugoslavia, Friedrich and his parents fled to Graz, Austria After the war ended, Friedrich helped manage a clearinghouse for displaced refugees preparing to immigrate to the United States where he decided to come to America, make a home for himself, and sponsor his parents' eventual immigration to the United States. Where he met Margarethe Meder, another ethnic German from Yugoslavia whose family had been displaced by the war. To support his family, he would work the higher-paying second shift and often took on second jobs to help make ends meet." I chose this piece of evidence to support answer my question because this is an article written about an ethnic German who was forced out of his homeland and how he had to survive. Before Tito and his party took over Yugoslavia he had a good life and a steady job. Until they were forced under threat of death to leave. They did and fled to Graz Austria.  This also shows how he had to work to sponsor his parent's trip to America and how he decided to go as well. While there he met another ethnic german who had escaped from Yugoslavia to America, showing that many people's lives changed because of this. He had to support his family by working second jobs and working later shifts showing how his life was changed forever because of this." The second piece of evidence is from Tomislav Sunic of the Institute for Historical Review who emphasized "By the end of the war in May 1945, German authorities had evacuated 220,000 ethnic Germans from Yugoslavia to Germany and Austria. Property of ethnic Germans in Yugoslavia confiscated in the aftermath of World War II amounted to 97,490 small businesses, factories, shops, farms, and diverse trades. The confiscated real estate and farmland of Yugoslavia's ethnic Germans came to 637,939 hectares (or about one million acres) and became state-owned property. According to a 1982 calculation, the value of the property confiscated from ethnic Germans in Yugoslavia amounted to twelve billion US dollars" This shows how the ethnic Germans of Yugoslavia were influenced by this Tito and his communist party. This shows how many of them were forced out of there homes and their own country and forced to become refugees. Those who chose to stay behind, however, had all their property confiscated. 97,490 shops, businesses, factories, farms, and diverse trade were taken by the government probably forcing hundreds of thousands of people to lose their jobs. The amount of property is estimated to have cost 12 billion U.S dollars.
My final piece of evidence was written by Dinah Shelton who asserts that " "Native German and Hungarian communities, seen as complicit with wartime occupation, were brutally treated; tantamount in some cases to ethnic cleansing. The Volksdeutch settlements of Vojvodina and Slavonia largely disappeared. Perhaps 100,000 people-half the ethnic German population in Yugoslavia-fled in 1945, and many who remained were compelled to do forced labor, murdered, or later ransomed by West Germany." I chose this piece of evidence because I feel it shows how Tito carried out this genocide. It shows how he brutally treated them. How he then forced 100,000 people to leave their homes, and their home country. Those who refuse to leave were forced to do hard labor for the government or were murdered.
