How to spell Empire

„How to spell Empire“ tells the story of the Tatars – Russian Muslims, who were to be re-educated as Islamist fighters in the German prisoner-of-war camps during the First World War. While the Germans tried to win the captured Tatars over to their side, the Tatars used their time in the camps to educate themselves and make plans for liberation from Russian imperial rule.
