From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
KurfürstentumsOriginal article in German: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurpfalz_(Region)
The Electoral Palatinate (Kurpfalz) Region is defined in the broader sense as the area where the Kurpfalz dialect is spoken. In a narrower sense, the name applies to the region of Mannheim and Heidelberg, which used to be part of the historical Kurfürstentum.
The Kurpfalz does not have defined borders, which is the same for Schwaben, but the Kurpfalz and the Palatinate (region) are separated by the Rhine.
