Kaunas city municipality : ウィキペディア英語版
Kaunas

Kaunas (; ; also see Kaunas' other names) is the second-largest city in Lithuania and has historically been a leading centre of Lithuanian economic, academic, and cultural life. Kaunas was the biggest city and the centre of a county in Trakai Municipality of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania since 1413. In the Russian Empire it was the capital of the Kaunas Governorate from 1843 to 1915. It became the only temporary capital city in Europe during the interwar period. Now it is the capital of Kaunas County, the seat of the Kaunas city municipality and the Kaunas District Municipality. It is also the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Kaunas. Kaunas is located at the confluence of the two largest Lithuanian rivers, the Nemunas and the Neris, and near the Kaunas Reservoir, the largest body of water entirely in Lithuania.
==Etymology ==

The city's name is of Lithuanian origins and most likely derives from a personal name.
Before Lithuania regained independence, the city was generally known in English as ''Kovno'', the traditional Slavicized form of its name; the Polish name is ''Kowno''; the Belarusian name is Koўнa, ''Kowna''. An earlier Russian name was Ковно ''Kovno'', although Каунас ''Kaunas'' has been used since 1940. The Yiddish name is ''Kovne'' (קאָװנע), while its names in German include ''Kaunas'' and ''Kauen''. The city and its elderates also have names in other languages (see Names of Kaunas in other languages and names of Kaunas elderates in other languages).
