The Gauliga Generalgouvernement was the highest football league in Polish areas annexed by Nazi Germany after 1939, which were not incooperated into any of the "Gaue", the so-called General Government (German:"General Gouvernement"). The name "Gauliga" is somewhat misleading in this case as the region was not part of the "Gau" system. The league existed from 1941 to 1945.
