Summary

Description
Latviešu: Kurzemes un Zemgales Hercogiste 1740.
Français : Le duché de Courlande et Sémigalie en 1740.
English: The Duchy of Courland and Semigallia in 1740.
Polski: Księstwo Kurlandii i Semigalii w 1740 roku.

The towns and cities are designated by their German names since the nobility and the Duke were of German heritage. The rivers, somewhat incongruously, are given their common Latvian names.
