Projektbeschreibung
When the Nazis conquered the continent in 1939/1940, political elites from all over Europe fled to Great Britain, last remaining safe haven of the Allies in reachable distance. Most European governments whose territory was now being occupied by Nazi Germany moved to London. A significant number of them had arrived as individual refugees, but once in London, they revived former contacts and created new networks to set up the mechanics of national committees and governments-in-exile, but also to continue political collaboration on an international level.
