It can be traced back to the 18th century, whenfirst maps and gazetteers covering the whole country or its large partswere published.On the turn of the 19th century fifteen volumes of the ‘Słownikgeograficzny Królestwa Polskiego’ (Geographic Dictionary of theKingdom of Poland) appeared in print. It listed a very large number ofnames of villages, towns, rivers, mountains and lakes. Also the entriesof that dictionary contained the first attempt to standardize Polishgeographic names.When Poland regained independence in 1918, it becamenecessary to standardize geographic names of objects in areasformerly annexed by Prussia, Austria and Russia.
