Stettin : ウィキペディア英語版
Szczecin

Szczecin (; ; (ドイツ語:Stettin), known also by other alternative names) is the capital city of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland. In the vicinity of the Baltic Sea, it is the country's seventh-largest city and a major seaport in Poland. As of June 2011 the population was 407,811.
Szczecin is located on the Oder River, south of the Lagoon and the Bay of Pomerania. The city is situated along the southwestern shore of Dąbie Lake, on both sides of the Oder and on several large islands between the western and eastern branches of the river. Szczecin borders directly with the town of Police and is the urban center of the Szczecin agglomeration, that includes communities in the German states of Brandenburg and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
The city's history began in the 8th century as a Slavic Pomeranian stronghold, built at the site of today's castle. In the 12th century, when Szczecin had become one of Pomerania's main urban centres, it lost its independence to Piast Poland, Saxony, the Holy Roman Empire and Denmark. At the same time, the Griffin dynasty established themselves as local rulers, the population was converted to Christianity, and German settlers arrived from Western European states. The native Slavic population faced assimilation and discrimination in the following centuries. Between 1237 and 1243, the town was rebuilt, granted vast autonomy rights, and eventually joined the Hanseatic League.
After the Treaty of Stettin in 1630, the town came under the control of the Swedish Empire. It was fortified and remained a Swedish-controlled fortress until 1720, when it was acquired by the Kingdom of Prussia and became capital of the Province of Pomerania, which after 1870 was part of the German Empire. In the late 19th century, Stettin became an industrial town, and vastly increased in size and population, serving as a major port for Berlin. During the Nazi era, opposition groups and minorities were persecuted and treated as enemies. By the end of World War II Stettin's status was in doubt, and the Soviet occupation authorities at first appointed officials from the city's almost entirely German pre-war population. In July 1945, however, Polish authorities were permitted to take power. Stettin was renamed Szczecin and became part of the newly established People's Republic of Poland, and from 1989 the Republic of Poland.
After the flight and expulsion of the German population and Polish settlement in the newly acquired territories, Szczecin became the administrative and industrial center of Polish Western Pomerania, the site of the University of Szczecin, Pomeranian Medical University, Maritime University of Szczecin, West Pomeranian University of Technology and Art Academy of Szczecin, and the see of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Szczecin-Kamień.
From 1999 onwards, Szczecin has served as the site of the headquarters of NATOs Multinational Corps Northeast.
==Name and etymology==
The names "Szczecin" and "Stettin" are of Slavic origins, though the exact etymology is subject of ongoing research.
In ''Etymological dictionary of geographical names of Poland'', Maria Malec lists eleven theories regarding the origin of the name, including derivations from:
* a Slavic word for hill peak, ((ポーランド語:szczyt))
* the plant fuller's teasel ((ポーランド語:szczeć))
* the personal name ''Szczota''〔Słownik etymologiczny nazw geograficznych Polski Profesor Maria Malec PWN 2003〕
Other medieval names for the town are ''Burstaborg'' (in the Knytlinga saga〔〔Stanisław Rospond, Slawische Namenkunde Ausg. 1, Nr. 3, C. Winter, 1989, p.162〕) and ''Burstenburgh'' (in the Annales of Waldemar〔〔). These names, which literally mean "brush burgh", are likely derived from the translation of the city's Slavic name.〔
