德國殖民地
German New Guinea () was the first part of the German colonial empire. The mainland portion, Kaiser-Wilhelmsland, was formed from the northeastern part of New Guinea. The islands to the east of Kaiser-Wilhelmsland, on annexation, were renamed the Bismarck Archipelago (formerly the New Britannia Archipelago) and the two largest islands renamed "Neu-Pommern" ("New Pomerania", today's New Britain) and "Neu-Mecklenburg" ("New Mecklenburg, now New Ireland).
