收復的領土
收復的領土（波蘭語：Ziemie Odzyskane）是一個地理詞彙，指二戰之後波蘭人民共和國自德國獲得的領土。波蘭政府自戰後自1949年期間曾廣泛使用這一詞彙。德國則稱這一片領土為德國前東部領土[1]。戰後西德不承認放棄德國前東部領土的主權，但在1990年兩德統一，德國與波蘭簽訂德波國境條約之後，德國和波蘭的國境問題已完全解決。
「收復」這一詞本身帶有強烈的宣傳含義[2]。這一帶領土在中世紀時期曾有部分屬皮雅斯特王朝，波蘭人民共和國當局通過「收復」一詞宣傳自己是皮雅斯特王朝的正當繼承者[1][3][4][5][6]。而這一地區的德國文化傳統直到1989年波蘭民主化之前都被波蘭當局否定[7]。不過在1949年後，波蘭當局為了強調這一片領土並不具特殊性，不再使用「收復的領土」這一詞彙。

It has been controversial, and often painful, but nevertheless it has been done. For example, Poland's acquisition in 1945 of eastern German territories is increasingly presented as the price Germany paid for launching a total war, and then having lost it totally. The 'recovered territories' thesis previously applied in almost equal measures by the communists and Catholic Church has been discarded. It is freely admitted in some circles that on the whole 'the recovered territorries' in fact had a wholly German character. The extent to which this fact is transmitted to other groups than the socially and politically engaged is a matter for some debate.
