According to Armia_Krajowa#Structure_and_membership there were three Warsaw districts: Eastern, Western, Northern. If this article is discussing all three of them, perhaps it should be renamed to Districts of Warsaw (of Armia Krajowa)? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 16:26, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Piotruś The point is there existed two 'Warsaw districts' of AK:

(1) the larger one, until beginning 1942 "District of Warsaw - Voivodship" then "Area of Warsaw" it covered ca pre-war Voivodeship of Warsaw excluding Warsaw itself and its suburbs (the Powiat of Warsaw), and

(2) the smaller one, called also "District of Warsaw - City" included the Powiat of Warsaw including Warsaw within administrative borders.

Forms of names show variations, there were also codenames in use. In the table Armia_Krajowa#Structure_and_membership the (1) is specified on the top as "Warsaw Area", the (2) below under "independent areas" - "Warsaw".

The duality is confusing, I was also confused.
