Communist Party of the Memel Territory

Communist Party of the Memel Territory

Communist Party of the Memel Territory (German: Kommunistische Partei des Memelgebietes) was a communist organisation in the Memel Territory in the 1920s. In the 1927 election, the party got 3900 votes (7.2%) and won two seats in the parliament of the territory.[1] Little is known about the group, and its relations with the German and Lithuanian communist parties. Soviet historical research says very little about the group, and on the rare occasions that communist activities in the Memel Territories were mention it claimed that the activities had been under influence of the Communist Party of Lithuania.[2]
