Eroberung Kurlands im Marz 1919

(Conquest of Kurland, March 1919), Leipzig.  After the end of WWI, Rüdiger Graf von der Goltz commanded the army of the Baltic German-established Government of Latvia, which, in 1919, was instrumental in the defeat of the Bolsheviks and their local allies. His subsequent defeat by Estonians under Ernst Põdder ended hopes of German control over the Baltic region. The map shows front lines.
