# Mława

A settlement in Poland.

## English name

**Mława** — Polish Latin-script name used in English; the native spelling is retained rather than retransliterating the Ukrainian input label.

Other forms in use:

- **Mielau** — German occupation-era name used in military and wartime records.
- **Mlawa** — Spelling without native diacritics, used in English plain-text indexes and international search; not a separate exonym.

## French name

**Mława** — Same spelling as in English; French references retain the local Latin-script name, without a fixed article.

Other forms in use:

- **Mielau** — German occupation-era name encountered in French Second World War histories.
- **Mlawa** — French plain-text and search variant without native diacritics; the main form keeps the local spelling.

## About

Mława is a town in northern Masovian Voivodeship, on the route between Warsaw and Gdańsk. It is remembered for fighting along the fortified border during the German invasion of Poland.

## Notes

Input label 'Млава' is Ukrainian or an indirect spelling; local\_name is restored to the native-language form.
