Attention! The information presented here can be wrongly interpreted as the promotion of fascism. However, these are images and descriptions are laid out in order not to justify or spread of fascism, but rather with a view to a comprehensive study, and objective coverage of the criminal nature of the phenomenon of fascism and public condemnation of it!
Malmedy and Moresnet are small towns in the Belgian province of Liege. Malmedy originally belonged to the imperial abbey of Stavelot, a principality of the Holy Roman Empire.
After the French Revolution, the Vienna Treaty (1815) allotted the eastern part of this district with Malmedy to Prussia. The Versailles Treaty after World War I gave the whole of this principality to Belgium.
After the invasion of Belgium by Germany, this territory was annexed to Germany 18th May 1940. This action naturally was not recognised by the Belgian government in exile, and after World War II the territory was again reunited with Belgium.Special cancelations series
