About Sachsen Anhalt

Sachsen Anhalt or Saxony-Anhalt is a state of Germany. The state of Saxony-Anhalt originated in July 1945 after World War II, when the Soviet army administration in Allied-occupied Germany formed it from the former Prussian Province of Saxony and the Free State of An halt. Saxony-Anhalt became part of the German Democratic Republic in 1947, but was dissolved in 1952 during administrative reforms and its territory divided into the districts of Halle and Magdeburg, with the city of Torgau joining the district of Leipzig. Saxony-Anhalt was re-established in 1990 following German reunification, excluding Toga, and became one of the Federal Republic of Germany's new states. In April 1945 the US Army took control of most of the western and northern area of the future Saxony-Anhalt.

The U.S. Group Control Council, Germany a precursor of the OMGUS appointed the first non-Nazi officials in leading positions in the area. The SVAG appointed Hubener as president of the provincial Saxon administration, a newly created function. The administration was seated in Halle a deer Saale, which became the capital, also of later Saxony-Anhalt until 1952. On 3 September 1945 the new administration enacted by Soviet-inspired ordinance the mass expropriations, mostly hitting holders of large real estates, often of noble descent.
