G e r m a n y . The Jewish population of the Reich is
related to the length of time since the seizure of power in the different
territories. This marks the beginning of the great Jewish exodus. Up to then
there had even been an increase in the Jewish population in some territories as
a result of their exodus from territories already occupied by the Reich.
At the time of assumption of power and on Dec. 31, 1942 the Jewish
population was:

There is a certain amount of overlap in
the figures prior to the assumption of power. Thus most of the 30 000 Jews of
the Sudetenland (27 000 religious Jews) before the annexation into the Reich
rapidly fled to the Protectorate without crossing a national border and without
loss of property and appear again in the figures for Bohemia and Moravia in
1939. On the 17 May 1939 there were only 2 649 Jews in the Sudetenland.
For the time shortly prior to World War II it is possible to list
figures for or estimate the Jewish population of the Reich territories with the
Protectorate and the General Government: |

| Altreich und Ostmark had already lost
well over half of their civilized and sterile Jewsih [sic] population before
the war, mainly due to emigration, while in the East the collapse of the
dangerous fertile Jewish masses only became clear during the war and
particularly after the evacuation measures of 1942.
