Pomerania, Historical region along Baltic Sea coast between Germany and Poland.

The terrain of Pomerania extends across flat coastal plains with numerous small rivers, lakes, and forests covering the landscape between the Oder and Vistula rivers.

The Duchy of Pomerania emerged in the 12th century when local rulers gained control over territories between the Baltic Sea and Poland under Holy Roman Empire influence.

The region preserves distinct Kashubian traditions in its eastern areas, with local communities maintaining their language, folk crafts, and traditional celebrations.

Modern Pomerania contains several major ports, including Szczecin and Gdańsk, which serve as essential maritime trade hubs for both Poland and Germany.

The name Pomerania derives from Slavic words meaning 'land by the sea,' reflecting its geographical position along the southern Baltic coast.
