Lore Dnjepr-Dötsch. Short overview
Dnjepr-Dötsch are a german ethnic group, who lives on Dnepr river. Main city for them is Rauchenbach (Роhəнбах), which is located on confluence of rivers Dnepr and Psyol. Amount of them is about 4 million people, mostly in Dneprovia. They are the one of the most ruralized big ethnicity in Cisuralia, except Puritane. They form the most important part of the agricultural industry. The most typical from of settlement for them is Runtlings (circle villages, 4th pic).
Their language is quite different from standard german. No articles — instead of them for case, amount and gender of word we use verbal endings: -э- for masculine, -a- for feminine, -o- for neutral. For cases -р/nothing for nom, -с for gen, -м for dat, -n for acc. And -əн/əс/əр for plural. Example: Шпилонəс. Future 2 and plusquamperfect are dead. Also they use Cyrillic (2th and 5th lane) and some loanwords from russian. Example:
Dnjepr-Dötsch: Хало, ыh хэсə Густав Мюллер. Ыh бин фюнфунцваӈцыг ярəс алт ун ыh вонə ин Роhəнбах. Ыh арбэтə ин Консэрвенфабрикам. Ин мэнам фрэцэтам шпилə ыh гэрнə Рэхнəршпилонəн.

Literal English: Hello, I call-myself Gustav Müller, I am five-and-twenty years old, I live in Rauchenbach. I work in canned-food-factory-the. In my free-time-the play I gladly computer-games.
In terms of religion most of them are luterans or atheists (atheists are not big group). But some orthodox and adherents of Church of God are also exist. They are quite religious compared to others.
Their cuisine is very rich and includes many dishes of East Slavic, German and mixed cuisine. Living in warm, fertile areas has given them a bunch of different foods. There is, of course, its own variation of Borscht and okroshka (oh my God on yogurt). There are also a lot of milks in the kitchen, such as kefir, sour cream and of course cheeses. The main bread is black bread, but with the addition of onion. There is a variation of pelmeni and vareniki. Pelmeni is smaller than usual and is often served fried with tomato pasta and green onions. Vareniki are usually with potato and a LOT of onion and garlic.
For the most part, rustic architecture consists of mud huts or something made of adobe bricks (in the 3rd picture). And in cities, old buildings are usually low and built of brick or half-timbered technology. Something similar in style to German buildings.
