Every factory he builds, every farm he modernizes and every bullet he orders into somebody's head; it all fails to subjugate the wild "borderland", which after more than 20 years is no less riddled with rebels and their constant terrorist attacks against his authority. For Koch, Ukraine is no Aryan paradise, and he's starting to wonder if it ever will be. These days he prefers to spend his time in East Prussia, another region he is responsible for, but one that he looks upon with pride, one that he wishes to get reassigned to permanently someday.
Line 53:
On 22 March 1926, Koch became a Bezirksleiter of the NSDAP in Essen and, in October of that year, succeeded [[Joseph Goebbels]] as Business Manager of Großgau Ruhr. In 1927, he succeeded Viktor Lutze as the Deputy Gauleiter of the region.

These include the [[Ukrainian Workers' and Peasants' Red Army]], [[Ukrainian Insurgent Army]] and the [[Ukrainian National Revolutionary Army]]. All of which plague his fiefdom in a determined fight for the freedom of Ukraine. After the [[West Russian War]] (1955-1957), these movements gained substantially more traction, fighting fiercely against the Nazi occupiers, causing Koch enough headaches to lose faith in the prospects of the Reichskommissariat. Koch now only does the bare minimum required of him and dreams of being rid of his position as Reischkommissar.
