Pomerania
Pomerania ((ポーランド語:Pomorze) (:pɔ̃ˈmɔʒɛ), (ドイツ語:Pommern) (:ˈpɔmɐn), (ラテン語:Pomerania)) is a historical region on the southern shore of the Baltic Sea.
The name Pomerania comes from Slavic ''po more'', which means "() by the sea".〔(''Der Name Pommern (po more) ist slawischer Herkunft und bedeutet so viel wie „Land am Meer“.'' ) (Pommersches Landesmuseum, German)〕 The adjective for the region is ''Pomeranian'' ((ポーランド語:pomorski), (ドイツ語:pommersch)), inhabitants are called ''Pomeranians'' ((ポーランド語:Pomorzanie), (ドイツ語:Pommern)).
Now divided between Germany and Poland, Pomerania stretches roughly from the Recknitz river near Stralsund in the west, via the Odra River delta near Szczecin, to the mouth of the Łeba river or the Żarnowieckie Lake near Lębork. It is sometimes also considered to encompass Pomerelia (Pomorze Gdańskie), up to the Vistula River delta near Gdańsk in the east, as well as Chełmno Land in the south.〔 The contemporary Pomeranian Voivodeship encompasses only a part of historical Pomerania.
The biggest Pomeranian islands are Rügen, Usedom/Uznam and Wolin. Pomerania belongs to the lowlands of the North European Plain. The largest Pomeranian city is Szczecin (narrow), or Gdańsk/Trójmiasto (wide). Outside its urban areas, Pomerania is characterized by farmland, dotted with numerous lakes, forests, and towns. The region was strongly affected by post–World War I and II border and population shifts, with most of its pre-war inhabitants leaving or being expelled after 1945.
