and Breslau, of course...[]
It's only recently when looking through 19th-century publications for another website that I've started seeing "Breslau" much more often- as one finds out on Wikipedia, the city of Breslau in then Silesia (appropriately!...) , later Germany after Bismarckian unification, is now Wroclaw, Poland (apologies for omitting diacritical thingums.) A nice touch, anyway, I think! :) (Also the hometown of a major character in Harry Turtledove's new alternate WW2 series, as I recall, yes.)
