https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pale_of_Settlement
The Pale of Settlement (Russian: Черта оседлости, chertá osyédlosti, Yiddish: דער תּחום-המושבֿ, der tkhum-ha-moyshəv, Hebrew: תְּחוּם הַמּוֹשָב, tẖum hammosháv) was a western region of Imperial Russia with varying borders that existed from 1791 to 1917, in which permanent residency by Jews was allowed and beyond which Jewish residency, permanent or temporary,[1] was mostly forbidden. Most Jews were still excluded from residency in a number of cities within the Pale as well. A limited number of Jews were allowed to live outside the area, including those with university education, the ennobled, members of the most affluent of the merchant guilds and particular artisans, some military personnel and some services associated with them, including their families, and sometimes the servants of these. The archaic English term pale is derived from the Latin word palus, a stake, extended to mean the area enclosed by a fence or boundary.[2]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kresy
Kresy Wschodnie or Kresy (Polish pronunciation: [ˈkrɛsɨ], Borderlands or Eastern Borderlands) was the Eastern part of the Second Polish Republic during the interwar period amounting to nearly half of the territory of the state. The Polish plural term Kresy corresponds to the Russian Okrainy (Oкраины), the "lands beyond".[1] It is also largely co-terminous with the "Russian Pale", (Polish: Strefa osiedlenia, Yiddish: דער תּחום-המושבֿ, der tkhum-ha-moyshəv, Hebrew: תְּחוּם הַמּוֹשָב, tẖum hammosháv) a scheme devised by Catherine the Great to limit where Jews might settle so as to be rid of them from the Russian Empire, barring a few exceptions. Application of the pale intensified after the Second Partition of Poland and lasted until the 1917 revolution. The population of Kresy anyway already contained a considerable proportion of minority religious and ethnic communities, which together probably equalled the number to ethnic Poles and even exceeded their numbers in some districts, e.g. Jews in small towns.[2] Administratively, the Kresy territory took in the voivodeships of Lwów, Nowogródek, Polesie, Stanisławów, Tarnopol, Wilno, Wołyń, and Białystok. Today, all these regions are divided between Western Ukraine, Western Belarus, and south-eastern Lithuania, with the major cities of Lviv, Vilnius, and Grodno no longer in Poland. During the Second Polish Republic Kresy denoted the lands beyond the so-called, Curzon Line, proposed after World War I by the British Foreign Office in December 1919 as the eastern border of the re-emerging sovereign Polish Republic after over a century of partitions. In September 1939, after the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany simultaneously attacked Poland under the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, all the territories were incorporated into Soviet Ukraine, Belarus and Lithuania enforced by terror.[3]
