Sovietization of Western Byelorussia (1939–1941) was the initial period of establishing Soviet rule in Western Belorussia. It lasted from late September 1939 to 22 June 1941. In the economy, Sovietization was expressed in the nationalization of the few industrial enterprises in Western Byelorussia. The authorities did not carry out complete collectivization, but gave the peasants land taken from the Polish "osadniks". The wealthy strata of the population of Western Byelorussia were ruined in the first months of Soviet power due to the confiscation of surplus cash and bank deposits, as well as high inflation and the emergence of the "black market". Over 22 months, a network of Soviet cultural institutions was created in Western Byelorussia. Also, in 1940-1941, a Soviet atheistic educational system was created in the region, including universities. Local cultural figures were included by the Soviet authorities in the new institutions, receiving certain privileges, the obligation to participate in propaganda events and create in the style of socialist realism. At the same time, local cultural figures found themselves financially dependent on the Soviet authorities.
