Etymology

The German word " fatherland " is occupied for the first time towards the end of the 11th century in Summarium Henrici and introduced already in Middle High German. The probable origin of meaning to a tilling land that belongs to the Father, expanded over time until " Fatherland" include origin and membership area of people, creatures, objects and abstractions, and could even be personalized.

The meaning of " paternal plot " was replaced over time by the fact that the word " fatherland " was used almost exclusively as a translation of the Latin word " patria " in German, which also most connotations of this term since ancient times in Latin literature triggered, were transferred to its counterpart in the German language.
