Overview

The brutal repressive measures of the German Wehrmacht during the Second World War led to uprisings and partisan actions all over the vast captured territories that were occupied during their triumphal years of 1940 and 1941. Few regions caused as much trouble for the occupying forces than the provinces of Russia, many of whom broke into almost open revolt.
