 | | The Province of Posen (German: Provinz Posen, Polish: Prowincja Poznańska) was a province of Prussia from 1848-1918 and as such part of the German Empire from 1871 to 1918. |
 | | Posen was responsible for the Militärische Unterregion-Hauptsitze at Posen, Lissa (Leszno), Hohensalza (Inowrocław), Leslau (Włocławek), Kalisch (Kalisz), and Litzmannstadt (Łódź). |
 | | During the Cold War, Posen, along with Silesia and Pomerania, were still claimed by West Germany as the German Eastern Territories under Polish Administration; during and after Ostpolitik, however, Germany formally rescinded their claims, acknowledging the facts on the ground in the Treaty on the Final Settlement with Respect to Germany. |
