Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Until the 18th century, it was difficult for the Wendish serfs to obtain permission to leave their home land. They finally began purchasing their way out of bondage and left their native villages to escape famine, find religious freedom and avoid the draft. Famine primarily affected the Lower Lusatians because of the area’s poor soil. Three large groups of Lusatians immigrated overseas to new homelands. First all of these Wendish immigrants inter-married, later began speaking English, and eventually lost their Wendish language. |
