Gdynia (, ) is a city in the Pomeranian Voivodeship of Poland and an important seaport of Gdańsk Bay on the south coast of the Baltic Sea. Located in Kashubia in Eastern Pomerania, Gdynia is part of a conurbation with the spa town of Sopot, the city of Gdańsk and suburban communities, which together form a metropolitan area called the Tricity (''Trójmiasto''), with a population of over a million people. == History == The area of the later city of Gdynia shared its history with Pomerelia (Eastern Pomerania); in prehistoric times it was the center of Oksywie culture; it was later populated by Slavs with some Baltic Prussian influences. * Late 10th century: Pomerelia was united with Poland.〔André Vauchez, Richard Barrie Dobson, Adrian Walford, Michael Lapidge,''Encyclopedia of the Middle Ages'', Routledge 2000, p.: 1163, ISBN 978-1-57958-282-1 (link )〕 * During the reign of Mieszko II Pomerelia seceded from Poland and became independent. * 1116/1121: Bolesław III reunited Pomerelia with Poland.〔James Minahan, One Europe, Many Nations: A Historical Dictionary of European National Groups, Greenwood Publishing Group, 2000, p.375, ISBN 978-0-313-30984-7〕 * 1209: First mention of Oxhöft (now known as Oksywie, which is now a part of Gdynia). * 1227: Pomerelia again became an independent Duchy. * 1253: First known mention of the name "Gdynia", as a Pomeranian (Kashubian) fishing village. The first church on this part of the Baltic Sea coast was built there. * 1294: Pomerelia was inherited by the future Polish king Przemysł II., and remained as part of Poland until – * 1309–1310; The Teutonic Order conquered Pomerelia and added it to Prussia. * 1380: The owner of the village which became Gdynia, Peter from Rusocin, gave the village to the Cistercian Order. * 1382: Gdynia became property of the Cistercian abbey in Oliva, now Oliwa. * 1454; Thirteen Years' War started. * 1466: Thirteen Years' War ended. Pomerelia became part of Royal Prussia, a newly established province of the Kingdom of Poland,〔Daniel Stone,''A History of East Central Europe'', University of Washington Press, 2001, p. 30, ISBN 978-0-295-98093-5 (Google Books )〕 and later on of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. * 1772: In the First Partition of Poland, Royal Prussia (including Gdynia) was annexed into the Kingdom of Prussia. Gdynia became known in German as Gdingen, and was expropriated from the Cistercian Order. * 1789: There were only 21 houses in Gdynia. * 1870: * * The Kingdom of Prussia became part of the German Empire. * * The village of Gdingen had some 1,200 inhabitants, and it was not a poor fishing village as it is sometimes described. It was a popular tourist spot with several guest houses, restaurants, cafes, several brick houses and a small harbour with a pier for small trading ships. The first Kashubian mayor of Gdingen was Jan Radtke. * 1919: Treaty of Versailles and the start of the dismemberment of eastern Germany. * 1920: Gdingen (now named Gdynia), along with other parts of former West Prussia, became a part of the new Republic of Poland; simultaneously, the city of Gdańsk and surrounding area was declared a free city and put under the League of Nations, though Poland was given economic liberties and requisitioned for matters of foreign representation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gdynia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
