  • Some nationalities (Chechens, Crimean Tatars, Ingush, Kalmyks, and Karachay-Balkars) had higher rates of collaboration with Nazis than the overall population even though majority of their group opposed the Nazis in many cases. They probably shouldn't have been deported, although I understand that the authorities had to make quick decisions in wartime and many of them would have been killed anyway by the Nazis if they hadn't been deported. However, the Germans many regions of Russia had arrived during Tsarist times as settlers and had often been in the nobility, which made many of them counterrevolutionary. The deportation of Volga Germans is probably the only one of these deportations I would defend considering how Germans in other areas such as the Sudetenland had enabled Nazi expansion.

    In addition, some groups not suspected of supporting the Nazis, specifically Jews, were deported to far away from the front lines in order to keep them away from the Nazis.











  • Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and Myanmar all use their own phonetic scripts but the only writing Vietnam had before the French came was a modified form of Chinese characters, and literacy campaigns after the revolution would be more difficult if you had to memorize a character for every word instead of just a letter for each sound. If Vietnam wanted to create its own non-Latin script without using Chinese characters, it would have to adopt another language's writing system or create a completely new system. The Zhuang language in southern China historically used Chinese characters but it wasn't a good fit and they've been using Latin now since the revolution.
