In Section 1.2, you write

I believe that “on the Crimean peninsula” or “in Crimea” might be correct but that “on the Crimea” might not be.

Thanks!

Have you looked at corpus results for "on the Crimea"? It doesn't seem to me like this phrase is used like German auf der Krim. But I don't have any Aktien in it.

Yes, you are right. I already said thank you. =:-)
