Nalšia or Nalšėnai (sometimes Nalsen, Nalse) was an ancient land (regional duchy, a subject of Polatsk) in the early stages of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. It is mentioned in written sources from 1229 to 1298. The references to it cease as it was fully incorporated into the Grand Duchy. While it is known that it was on the north-eastern border of Lithuania proper, the exact location is unknown and is debated among historians. It is believed that Nalšia was between Livonia and the Duchy of Lithuania and bordered Deltuva. Towns of Švenčionys and Utena are often identified as the most prominent settlements in the land. Several dukes of Nalšia are known. The most prominent of them was Daumantas of Pskov. Others were Lengvenis, nephew of Mindaugas, (Suxe), who defected to the Teutonic Knights

  • Nalšia o Nalsene (in latino: terra Nalsen; in lituano: Nalšia; in bielorusso: Нальшчаны, trasl. Naĺščany) era la denominazione di una regione geografica abitata da Selonici e Aukštaitiani menzionata nel XIII secolo nei testi della cronaca rimata della Livonia e della cronaca degli anni passati. Dopo il battesimo di Mindaugas nel 1253, il sovrano rinunciò ad una porzione della regione (detta Maleisines, all'estremo nord-est dell'odierna Lituania) in favore dell'arcivescovo di Riga. Il confine meridionale della Selonia correva lungo il fiume Sventas (oggi Šventoji), il fiume Latuva, il fiume Lėvuo fino al fiume Mūša. Dopo l'assassinio di Mindaugas nel 1263, la Nalšia divenne un territorio conteso tra l'ordine di Livonia e il Granducato di Lituania. Dopo la battaglia di Grunwald del 1410, fu integrata definitivamente nel Granducato. (it)
  • Нальшаны (Нальшанская земля, Нальщаны) — историческая область, охватывающая северо-запад Белоруссии и северо-восток Литвы. По мнению большинства исследователей, территория Нальшан приблизительно соотносится с юго-восточной частью ареала восточно-литовских курганов ( и Свенцянская возвышенности). После присоединения к Великому княжеству Литовскому в 1264 году Нальшаны поглощаются термином «Аукштайтия». (ru)
