Drang nach Osten (German for “Drive to the East”) refers to the historical concept of eastward expansion by German states and peoples. It has been used in various periods and contexts, most notably in:
Medieval Period:
Germanic migration and military campaigns toward Slavic and Baltic territories.
The Teutonic Order and other crusading orders pushed into areas like Prussia, Poland, and the Baltic states.
Involved settlement, Christianization, and cultural Germanization of the region.
19th–20th Century:
The term was revived in the 19th century to promote German nationalist and imperialist goals.
It became central to Lebensraum (“living space“)—the idea that Germany must conquer Eastern Europe (especially the Soviet Union) for resources and land.
