Kujawy

Kujawy ([kuˈjavɨ], sometimes referred to as Kuyavia or Cuyavia (Latin:Cuiavia), is a historical region (ziemia, i.e. land) in the north-central Poland, situated on the left bank of Vistula, as well as east from Noteć River and Lake Gopło. It is divided into three traditional parts: north-eastern (with the capital in Bydgoszcz, ethnographically regarded often as non-kuyavian), central (the capital in Inowrocław or Kruszwica), and south-eastern (the capital in Włocławek or Brześć Kujawski). It is itself a part of the bigger region (dzielnica) – Greater Poland.
