Gauliga Generalgouvernement
The Gauliga Generalgouvernement was the highest football league in Polish areas annexed by Nazi Germany after 1939, which were not incooperated into any of the ''Gaue'', the so-called General Government (German:''General Gouvernement''). The name ''Gauliga'' is somewhat misleading in this case as the region was not part of the ''Gau'' system. The league existed from 1941 to 1945. Overview The ''Gauliga Generalgouvernement'' was as such introduced by the Nazi Sports Office in 1941, but never actually became a proper league. It existed as a championship round for the four district champions of the General Government only, the four districts being: * Krakau ''(Kraków)'' * Lublin * Radom * Warschau ''(Warsaw)'' Polish clubs were not permitted to take part in the competition, only clubs from the German ethnic minority, which made up 2.3 percent of the overall population of Poland, or 741,000 people.
