Terminology

The term "West Pomerania" is ambiguous, since it may refer to either Hither Pomerania (in German usage and historical usage based on German terminology), to both Hither and Farther Pomerania combined, or to the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (in Polish usage). The term "East Pomerania" may similarly carry different meanings, referring either to Farther Pomerania (in German usage and historical usage based on German terminologye.g. here (Sheperd Atlas), or i
old Enc Britannica
/ref>), to Pomerelia, or to the Pomeranian Voivodeship (in Polish usage). }
