Bavaria Slavica

Bavaria Slavica is a historiographical term used to denote northeastern regions of modern Bavaria, that were populated by Slavs during the Early Middle Ages. Slavic settlements were concentrated mostly in eastern parts of modern Upper Franconia and northern parts of modern Upper Palatinate, encompassing upper sections of the Main river basin. Thus, they are also known as Slavs of the Upper Main.
