Prussia

Prússia English <dab!> thumb|right|The flag of Prussia from 1892 to 1918. Etymology From en la-new Prūssia, a Latinization used by Peter of Dusburg of a en bat (en prg -, or perhaps en lt - or en lv -) autonym. In the Baltic languages it has a long /uː/. The en ine-pro - source of the name is unclear; more at Prussia. Compare the ine-bsl-pro *prus-sk-,423 whose cognates include sla-pro *prъskati to splutter, to splash, sa प्रुष्णोति pruṣṇóti to sprinkle, and thus signifying "watery land". The enm - designation for the region, enm Pruce, derives from the same Latinization and is the source of the terms en pruce and en spruce.
