Sambia (Baltic)

Sambia (German: Samland) is the name of a historical region on Sambian Peninsula (Russian: semlyandskiy poluostrov), formerly Samland, Prussia and originally populated by the Baltic tribe of Sambians.

Sambia is an area rich of amber in the Kaliningrad Oblast (northern part of the former East Prussia) at the Baltic Sea coast near Kaliningrad (Koenigsberg). Sambia was the last area where the Old Prussian language went extinct, at the beginning of 18th century.

The unofficial name was still in use in the Province of Prussia, and now in the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia.

For thousands of years amber has been found at the Sambia coast and an Amber Road trade route has led from Prussia's "first city" of Truso to the Black Sea and further east.
