Title: De oorlog na de Groote Oorlog
Description: At the beginning of the twentieth century, the German and Belgian economies were strongly intertwined. Many German families and businesses were at home in Belgium. Until August 1914. From the first days of the First World War many Belgian Germans received orders from the occupiers to leave the country. The German families who had remained in Belgium were severely punished after the war. They were enemies and their possessions were confiscated. The Belgian state was unrelenting. "The War after the Great War" tells for the first time the story of the hard anti-German repression in Belgium after the First World War. What were the consequences for the heirs, relatives, and employees of the German business executives and their families who had for decades felt that they were Belgian? And above all, was this treatment justified?
