Polesia, also called Polissia, Polesie, or Polesye,[a] is a natural (geographic) and historical region in Eastern Europe within the East European Plain, including the Belarus–Ukraine border region and part of eastern Poland.[2] This region should not be confused with parts of Russia also traditionally called "Polesie".[3]
