    Each of those countries have been invaded by the US to force their politics on the invaded nations. The MO of the US.

    Or perhaps the women left East Germany because they saw the rise of the far right and the far right's desire for a "final solution"? Nazism is growing in every old Eastern block country and fueled by rhetoric from Trump, Le Pen, Farage and others

    Interesting you should mention the hypocrite Catholic Church. The Catholic Church has worked side by side with many corrupt governments throughout it's history starting with the Roman Empire. Not all Christians are Catholic.

    Most of the far right in East Germany have been fueled by Merkel's immigrant policies. Merkel is an East German woman.

    Gee, I thought it was a rhetorical question. Have I not made my position on immigrants clear enough for you? I come from a family of ancestors who left England in the 1630's.

    Are you talking about the US or Central and South American countries?

    Now you are sounding like a propaganda spokesman for East Germany.

    Also noticeable is the high gender selectivity in the internal migration streams : While in the years 1991 to 2006, 50.5 % of east-west-migrants were female, their share was only 45.0 % in the counterflow. This imbalance is even more obvious in the age group 18 to 30 years, with a female share of 52.9 % in the outflow against 47.2 % in the counterflow. Broken down in total numbers, the negative net migration balance of women sums up to - 630,000, while for men a net balance of - 400,000 can be reported (Schultz, 2009, p. 56). This inequality of migratory moves culminated to significant changes in the gender proportion, which reaches disproportions of 15-20 % in the age group 18-29 in some (mostly peripheral) regions of East Germany (Berlin Institut, 2007, p. 41).

    But Nazism is growing in all old Eastern bloc countries which have relatively low immigrant populations.

    Your article shows that i´m right. Thüringen ist not peripheral but absolute center of Germany, yet is in eastern germany and we even have more women here than men. Simply because many men work under the week in Hessen and bavaria and come back at weekend.
