Hello, I am looking for a map that shows the physical boundaries of the two parts of Poland that were occupied and administered by Germany and Austria-Hungary, respectively, between 1915 and 1918.
As many students of the First World War know, following the 1915 "Gorlice-Tarnow" offensive against Imperial Russia, the armies of both Germany and Austria-Hungary occupied vast areas of Polish territory. After the dust of the battles had settled, the Germans installed an administrative body (a "General Government" based in Warsaw under General Hans Beseler. At the same time, the Austro-Hungarian regime created a parallel authority under its own control based in Lublin. This latter was directed by Karl von Kuk, and later by Stanislaw Graf von Szeptycki.
I know that the Austrian "zone" of occupation included Lublin, Kielce, Radom and Chelm, and I assume all territory south of these cities to Austrian Galicia. Does anyone know the actual, physical extent of the Austrian zone of occupation? Where did the Austrian zone end and where did the German zone begin?
How far north along the Bug River did the Austrian zone of 1915-1918 reach? Was the town of Wlodawa inside the German or Austrian zone of occupation? What about Parczew or Brest Litovsk?
Is there a map of these zone on this site?
Any maps or other information you can provide or direct me to will be appreciated. Thank you!
