| | Silesia |
 | | Silesia (Polish Śląsk, German Schlesien, Czech Slezsko) is a historical region in central Europe. |
 | | Most of it is now within the borders of Poland, but with a small part in the Czech Republic, and another small region, which only became part of Silesia in 1815, in Germany. |
 | | To smooth integration into German society, they were organized into officially recognized organisations, like the Landsmannschaft Schlesien, financed from the federal budget. |
