Documentation Centre for Displacement (2021)
On the Refugee crises map as “The Documentation Centre”
Jun 2021 — A federal museum on flight and expulsion opens in Berlin. For twenty years, Germans and their neighbors in Poland and the Czech Republic had argued over whether remembering German suffering would eclipse German responsibility. The museum places the expulsion of Germans among the twentieth century’s other forced migrations.

Historical geographic facts; citation only Territories and displacement hatching are reconstructed from published source geometry. The hatched areas locate historical regions; ethnicity, displacement and control were not necessarily uniform at every point within them.
The layer records give the full source geometry and date choices. Arrows remain schematic routes, using the lesson’s existing volume categories.
Where a 1945 vector was unavailable, German occupation/state boundaries use the nearest 1949/1950 sources. Berlin’s sector-area reference uses official later locality boundaries, leaving small historical exchanges unresolved. The 1961 wall view uses actual 1989 wall segments as an explicitly later reference.
Prewar German, Polish, Finnish and Italian source polygons identify regions of transfer and expulsion. For Istria, the reference combines the published 1929–1939 Italian eastern outline and an IGM Fiume reconstruction with postwar Yugoslav geography. It shows the 1943–1956 exodus region, including the later 1954 Zone B adjustment. The 1947 peace treaty entered into force in September; the hatch does not show a treaty-day or April 1947 sovereignty line.
Chapter narrative date: 1990.87; each selected source records its own reference interval.
