Slavs

From Turtledove

The Slavs are a lingustic group comprising most of eastern Europe. The different Slavic nations include Serbia, Poland, Czech, Slovakia, Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria and the remnants of Yugoslavia and other Soviet republics which are connected by linguistic similarities.

[edit] Slavs in In the Presence of Mine Enemies

Germany conquered the Slavic nations during World War II. As the Nazi ideology considered Slavs sub-human, most Slavs were subjected to enslavement and genocide. German settlers moved into former Slavic lands with the exception of the Czechs and Croats which were regarded as western or Germanic despite their Slavic roots and merely occupied militarily.
