Hello @all,
first, i will say, that I find your site very great. I am from Germany and so I can´t read anything there, but the pictures are great.
So here is my first question:
Why do you not make the site in English? It would be great for all, who don´t understand your language.
And heres my second:
Do you know a good online translation maschine which can make Finnisch to German oder Finnisch to English, so I can understand what there is written?
I hope you will answer my questions and best wishes for the future!
Bis bald,
Feldmarschall

Viel danke! And here is my answer:
English is not my native language, nor am I rich enough to afford a professional translator. Time is also a factor. I have my own work and my own studies, and this alternate history site is only one of my many hobbies. It would be impossible to translate all the 100+ pages by myself.
If and when Reich - the Comprehensive Solution is published as a book, foreign translations could be thought of.
Second answer: I'm afraid such online translators doesn't exist. I know few such programs and they are hardly able to translate even the simplest sentence from finnish to any language.

Thanks for the fast answer. I hope in the future you will translate it.
When you want to say thanks or thank you in German, you must write: ;D Vielen dank, not Viel danke. ;D
When you need my help in German, perhaps I can help you?

Thank you for correcting me; I've never really studied German altough I think it is one of the most romantic languages in the world.
There is one way you can really help me: I'm currently working on a poster-sized New European maps and I need some help with german placenames. Can you tell what are Bialystok and Vitkovice called in german? Or have they any german names? Most of the eastern european cities were renamed during German occupation.

Ok, I can do that. Are they lying in Poland or where?

Bialystok I could find, it´s in eastern Poland, but Vitkovice I couldn´t find.

I took freedom to search the web and I found the answer for Bialystok from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Jnc. (seems the link doesn't work complitely) "...After looking at Bialystok, I don't see the point of including the "German - Bialystok", since it's the exact same spelling. Having said that, it was part of the Prussian Empire for a short time..." So Bialystok _should_ be the same for Poles and Germans. Name for Vitkovice was a little easier to find, used google and it directed me to www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Palace/6691/places.html"...Witkowitz - Vitkovice (Ostrava)...", German name 1st, Polish 2nd. Hope I helped  |

Very interesting site.
How is the Status of the poster-sized New European maps ?

Thanks, Feldmarschall. All I need is to remove the flag of Sweden from the New Europe, and it's done. It is size A3 when printed.
I have also prepared another set of New Europe maps, Greater Finland and Germania (Reich). They are size A4 and can be ordered directly from me. Glossy or non glossy. I'll post previews of them next week.
And for Luuger: Thank you for the names. BTW, I didn't know it had been a part of the Prussian empire. Maybe that is the reason Hitler choose to annex the whole Bialystok area to Eastern Prussia, rather than let it fall to Weissruthenia (Belarus)
