Peak GDP Year: 1947 (0.6%)

The peak year of 1947, reflects industrialization under Stalin. That number is largely projected backwards from 1973 data and it is hard to believe that war-ravaged Belarus was actually in good condition.

There is little historical information about Northeastern Europe before the 9th century. I have followed Phersu Atlas in ascribing control vaguely known tribal confederations and kingdoms at times.

I have identified the Kievan Rus state as Russia because that it was its contemporaries called it (in Latin). The breakup of the Kievan Rus was a gradual process and I have followed the Phersu Atlas in its timing.

Here is my summary of who controlled Belarus
