Thank you! Much appreciated! It is indeed a fictionalized account/narrative based on and inspired by real life experiences, events and laws. Aside from the character being my own creation, everything else is absolutely historically authentic.

It's altogether a long, complex and deeply tragic era with tons of information. Lot's of other details were left out, as it was already tricky fitting in so much into a short story without overdoing it or being overwhelming. One can easily write from all sorts of different POV's and it would be equally horrifying.
