Energy demand model in Mazowsze region 1.1. Region description Region description Name: Mazowsze Region classification according to NUTS 2: Mazowsze voivodeship the Nomenclature of Territorial Units NUTS 3 : Warsaw for Statistics (NUTS) Population profile - number of 5 285 604 residents residents Statistics on employed persons 2 166 898 residents (data as of 2011, Central Statistical Office (GUS), Warsaw, 2012) The Mazowsze Voivodeship comprises 42 county districts (37 townships and 5 country districts). County districts are divided into 314 communes - 35 - urban, 50 - urban- country and 229 country communes [1]. The capital of Poland - Warsaw - is located within the territory of the Mazowsze voivodeship. The capital city is a commune - city county - (Polish: Miasto na prawach powiatu, lit. city with county rights) is a city in Poland that has the status of a county (Polish: powiat). Warsaw is divided into 18 districts which maintain their individual character and compose the entire image of the city. The districts are as follows: Bemowo, Białołęka, Bielany, Mokotów, Ochota, Praga Południe, Praga Północ, Rembertów, Śródmieście, Targówek, Ursus, Ursynów, Wawer, Wesoła, Wilanów, Włochy, Wola, Żoliborz [2]. The Mazowsze area, thanks to its location, is one of the most interesting regions in Poland. Location of Mazowsze around Warsaw, the capital city functions of Warsaw, large population and economy potential, dynamic market of products, services and labour, unpolluted area of nature including the Kampinos Forest, the Kozienicka Forest, the Biała Forest, as well as six landscape parks and over a thousand nature reserves make Mazowsze "the heart" of Poland in which all of the most important "life" processes of Polish economy gather. Population profile Current population of Mazowsze reaches over 5 million. It is the largest region in Poland in terms of population with young and well educated population [3]. 64% of overall population are the residents of cities. Remaining 36% are the residents of countryside. Similarly to entire country, it is women who dominate in the Mazowsze 3 3sCE417P3 – 3.1.2, Regional Energy Demand Report introduction of Regional Energy Concepts Voivodeship. There are 3.6% of women more than men. An average lifetime of residents of the Mazowsze Voivodeship is higher than the average in Poland. Data on population in 2000, 2005, 2010, 2011 are presented in table 1 and figure 1. Table 1. Population of Mazowsze Detailed list 2000 2005 2010 2011 as of 31.12.2012.

Population of Mazowsze 13.1% of population of Poland inhabits Mazowsze which makes the region the most populated voivodeship. This is where the largest city of Poland - Warsaw - is located as well. Its population reaches around 18 million including adjacent towns - 2.5 million [4]. One can define 2 areas of Warsaw conurbation as an urban complex. The functional-spatial complex – 1st area (Metropolitan Area of Warsaw) comprises Warsaw and: Legionowo, Marki, Ząbki, Zielonka, Kobyłka, Wołomin, Sulejówek, Józefów,Otwock, Karc zew, Konstancin-Jeziorna, Piaseczno, Piastów, Pruszków, Ożarów Mazowiecki, Łomianki. Whereas 2nd area is a functional area, namely towns from the area 1 and: Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki, Radzymin, Góra Kalwaria, Milanówek, Brwinów, Podkowa Leśna, Grodzisk Mazowiecki, Błonie, Halinów, Jabłonna. 4 3sCE417P3 – 3.1.2, Regional Energy Demand Report introduction of Regional Energy Concepts The voivodeship is inhabited by 5 285 604 persons which makes it the top scorer in terms of population in Poland. The Mazowsze Voivodeship was one of four voivodeships in Poland (along with Pomorskie, Małopolskie and Wielkopolskie), in which - compared to 2009 - relatively the highest increase of population (over 0.3 %) was noticed [5]. Typical farmland county s of Mazowsze: Siedlce, Ostrołęka and Płock countys. The lowest population inhabited in the country are characteristic of: Wołomin, Żyrardów and Otwock countys [6]. Demography A process of suburbanisation is something one can observe in the Mazowsze voivodeship which concentrated population strongly in the capital city suburban area with simultaneous depopulation of its peripheral areas. Settlement network map of the Mazowsze voivodeship is presented on figure 2. Migration of population - table 2.

According to the data presented by Central Statistical Office (GUS) in 2011, efflux of population from the Mazowsze region reached 55 837 citizens and influx 70 042. Positive migration balance results from the fact that this area provides a huge opportunity for promotion and much higher salary. One of the trends applies to citizens of neighbouring towns moving in to the capital city. These towns are as follows: Siedlce, Ciechanów and other towns near Warsaw, which recently almost became districts of Warsaw. Citizens of the Lublin Voivodeship troubled by unemployment of the Ściana Wschodnia move to the Mazovia more frequently. The capital city attracts people dreaming of carriers in large corporations, as well as people employed in services. Yet another trend is related to citizens of large towns of Mazowsze voivodeship. One can easily notice a second trend. Due to improved financial situation numerous citizens do plan to move to quieter

  • Szymon Datner German Nazi Crimes Against Jews Who
    JEWISH HISTORICAL INSTITUTE BULLETIN NO. 75 (1970) SZYMON DATNER GERMAN NAZI CRIMES AGAINST JEWS WHO ESCAPED FROM THE GHETTOES “LEGAL” THREATS AND ORDINANCES REGARDING JEWS AND THE POLES WHO HELPED THEM Among other things, the “final solution of the Jewish question” required that Jews be prohibited from leaving the ghettoes they were living in—which typically were fenced off and under guard. The occupation authorities issued inhumane ordinances to that effect. In his ordinance of October 15, 1941, Hans Frank imposed draconian penalties on Jews who escaped from the ghettoes and on Poles who would help them escape or give them shelter: “§ 4b (1) Jews who leave their designated quarter without authorisation shall be punished by death. The same penalty shall apply to persons who knowingly shelter such Jews. (2) Those who instigate and aid and abet shall be punished with the same penalty as the perpetrator; acts attempted shall be punished as acts committed. A penalty of severe prison sentence or prison sentence may be imposed for minor offences. (3) Sentences shall be passed by special courts.” 1 In the reality of the General Government (GG), § 4b (3) was never applied to runaway Jews. They would be killed on capture or escorted to the nearest police, gendarmerie, Gestapo or Kripo station and, after being identified as Jews and tortured to give away those who helped or sheltered them, summarily executed. Many times the same fate befell Poles, too, particularly those living in remote settlements and woodlands. The cases of Poles who helped Jews, which were examined by special courts, raised doubts even among the judges of this infamous institution because the only penalty stipulated by law (death) was so draconian.

  • Transport Accessibility of Warsaw: a Case Study

To achieve this goal, we proposed a framework to perform a spatial analysis to describe the as-is situation in the city (the state that the situation is in at the present time). The framework contains the following elements: attractiveness analysis, travel time and speed analysis, and potential accessibility analysis. The relationship between the averaged nominal travel speed and the number of residents was also investigated. We used data from a journey planner, as well as land use and population statistics, and employed descriptive analytics. The results are presented as maps of travel times, travel speed, and potential accessibility, as well as scatter plots of dependencies between travel speed and number of residents. Unfortunately, public transportation ranks behind car and bike transport in terms of travel time, speed, and potential accessibility. The largest positive influence on effectiveness of traveling by public transportation is the metro and railway system; also, bikes can perfectly complement the public transportation system.

The metro- politan areas were selected from Central Europe (Warsaw), Western Europe (Paris), and from the area located in the borderland between these regions (Berlin). In the case of each area, typical categories were selected for analysis, and developed on the basis of accepted segregation indices (the dissimilarity index D, isolation index xPx, delta index DEL, absolute centralisation index ACE, spatial proximity index SP and modified location quotient LQp). The multidimensional and multifaceted analysis allowed the most segregated groups at munici- pality and district levels to be distinguished, and presented in the context of previous research.

  • Villages Gazetteer of Members of the Kazuń Nowy/Niemiecki (Deutsch Kasan) Mennonite Church, Recorded As Residences in the Records of 1832-1841
    Villages Gazetteer of Members of the Kazuń Nowy/Niemiecki (Deutsch Kasan) Mennonite Church, Recorded as Residences in the Records of 1832-1841 Compiled and formatted by Daniel Foote Revised December 2020 [email protected] Current Polish governmental and administrative divisions, starting with the largest in area and highest in level, are the Woiwode (province), divided into Powiats (counties), which are in turn divided into Gminas (communes/municipalities). Warsaw is divided into two Powiats, which are each divided into Dzielnice (districts), in turn divided into Osiedle (‘estates’/neighborhoods). All the members lived within the Woiwode of Mazowieckie (Mazovia). Some were born or had relatives in Prussia. The congregation found in these Civil Records took their name from the location of their church, the village called Deutsch Kasan in German, Kazuń Niemiecki in Polish, now called Kazuń Nowy. This Gazetteer uses the location of the church as the starting point. The rest of the list proceeds with villages in the same gmina as Deutsch Kasan, then those in neighboring gmina within the same powiat, then villages in neighboring powiats under the heading of their gmina, and so on, moving further away from Deutsch Kasan. Three villages are deemed “Outliers”, as they are not in the same gmina or powiat as any other village where Mennonites lived. Lastly, under the heading of Special Mention, are villages in Prussia where members of this congregation did not live, but rather where many were born, or were the last known residence of a member or their immediate family. Each powiat and gmina is given by its current Polish name with the English form in parentheses “( )”, and under the ‘History/Background’ column are links to either the English Wikipedia entry for the powiat or gmina, or the Polish version translated to English via GoogleTranslate if the Polish entry contains more information relevant to Mennonites, although the automatic translations are very rough.
