The advantages of the region are its relief, nature, clean air and wonderful people. Next to the Baltic Country of Lakes lies a country with a poetic name “Bella Dvina”. This country is located in the area where the river Dvina – Daugava flows, which is well known since ancient times for the trade route “from Varangians to Greeks”. Looking at the map, one can conclude, that inhabitants of three countries – Russia, Belarus and Latvia – can consider the Western Dvina for their own. Its flow begins in Russia, and goes through Belarus. As it flows into Latvia, it is no longer Dvina, but rather Daugava, which then flows into the Baltic Sea. Active tourism throughout the year, fascinating cultural events, and picturesque sceneries – all of this comprises a unique mosaic, which provides true visual and aesthetical enjoyment. We offer you to get acquainted with the Baltic Country of Lakes – Latgale in Latvia, Aukštaitija in Lithuania, as well as the “Bella Dvina” region, which includes Latgale in Latvia and part of Vitebsk region in Belarus. -

Summary: The historic cadastral plan of Dinaburg county was prepared more than 200 years ago (in 1784). This paper discusses the place names of the cadastral plan of Dinaburg county in order to complete the Place Names Database of Latvia. The place names have been georeferenced, summarized in a table and entered into the Place Names Database if the geo- graphical feature still exists. In some cases the geographical object has disappeared. For ex- ample, to the north of the village Nīcgale a lake had been located, but this lake does not exist anymore. Names of small rivers have often disappeared or differ from the present listing the Place Names Database. Lake names have survived better, for example, Kosinis / Koša ezers (озе: Кожь), Vabales ezers (озе: Ваболь). However, also lake names have been changed, for example, Dublinīku ezers, which earlier had the name озе: Донашунь. Introduction After the first partition of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (Rzecz Pospolita) in 1772 Latgale was joined to Russia (Jēkabsons 2005). In accordance with the manifest of 1765 by Catherine the Great the General Land Survey of Russia (including Latgale) had been carried out over nine years (1775-1784). The cadastral plan of Dinaburg County had been prepared.
