rule in 1227. The monks of the Dominican Order began the construction of a stone church in Toompea in 1229. The first written data on the cathedral date back to 1233, the date of a battle between the order and the pro-papal vassals, who attempted for the last time to turn Tallinn into the centre of the ecclesiastical state, and were defeated. According to the records, the battle had spread to the interior of the church and the bodies of the fallen knights had piled at the altar. The resettling of the Dominican monks from Toompea to downtown was one of the results of the battle. Having acquired North Estonia again in 1238, King Valdemar of Denmark appointed the Toompea church the cathedral of the Tallinn bishopric, which was formed in 1240, and subordinated to the archdiocese of Lund. The cathedral chapter was established at the cathedral consecrated to St. Mary the Virgin and a school was formed at the church in 1319 at the latest.
What about everybody else? Sovietization mostly on urban centers, more keenly felt than on periphery. Farmers in Bessarabia, barely felt Sovietization, have a talk, mainly to get wine, gratice. 60,000 Polish Js removed, 39-41. 150,000 Js from annexed territories arrive in unoccupied parts. Birobidzhan? Political theater. Where to resettle millions of Js? Esp Ger, Romanian, Pol Js. No thought to SU Js. Birobidzhan bubbled up, some infrastructure, autonomous region to 36, benign. JDC, presence, resettling Js, feelers to SU, knows not ideal. Phillipines, Ghiana, Madagascar, not a lot of viable options. Not mentioned in Evian, under League of Nations, all about Js though not said. SU not interested in Ger/Pol Js, SU knows there will be war against capitalist world, Ger/Pol capitalists sort of. Dominican Republic the answer, 400-500 in 1940, never goes anywhere. Highest rate of Aliyah from former SU from Birobidzhan.
