Included in the category of Black Sea Germans are the following groups from the Black Sea area the Bessarabia Germans , Dobrujan Germans , and the Russian Mennonite s. The Black Sea Germans are distinct from the Volga German s, who were separate both geographically and culturally, although both groups moved to Russia at about the same time and for the same reasons. The Germans settled in southern Ukraine which at that time was part of the Russian Empire and on the Crimea n Peninsula . This land was gained for Russia by Catherine the Great through her two wars with the Ottoman Empire 1768 1774 and from the annexation of the Crimean Khanate s 1783 . The area of settlement was not settled as compactly as that of the Volga territory, rather it was home to a chain of colonies. The first German settlers arrived in 1787, first from West Prussia , then later from Western Germany Western and Southwestern Germany , as well as from the Warsaw area. Catholics, Lutherans and Mennonites were all known as capable farmers see Molotschna , for Mennonite settlements in the Melitopol area Empress Catherine herself sent them a personal invitation to immigrate to Russia.
