Bromberg (region)

The administrative center was the city of Bromberg (Bydgoszcz), which is now part of Poland.

The Bromberg region had a larger percentage of mostly Protestant Germans than average for the Province of Posen.

Initially, there was a sizable Jewish minority, but that number diminished over time due to the Ostflucht.

Note: Prussian provinces were subdivided into units called Kreise (singular Kreis, abbreviated Kr., English "circle"), which were similar to small counties in US terms, "rural districts" in British terms.

The larger cities would have their own Stadtkreis (English: "urban district") and the surrounding rural area would be named for the city, but referred to as a Landkreis (English: "rural district").
