yellow triangles, width of edging is 1/12 of width of the

"City in Ternopil Oblast. For the first time it was
mentioned in Ipatiiv chronicles of 1097 as the center of
Terebovlians'ke principality which consisted of south-east
Galytshyna, Bukovyna and a part of Podillia. In 1389 king Yagailo
granted the Magdeburg Right."
Phil Nelson, 7 July 1999
My ancient encyclopedia says, under the heading
"Magdeburg", "Magdeburg became a flourishing
commercial town during the 13th century, and was an important
member of the Hanseatic League..."Magdeburg law"
(Magdeburger Recht), securing the administrative independence of
municipalities, was widely adopted." Perhaps where the
source says "was given Magdeburg right" we should
translate "received the right of civic self-government"
or something similar.
