Latgalia was first settled by Eastern Balts, from whom the Latvian and Latgalian languages were derived. Two main principalities, Jersika and Atzele, were established in the region, but neither managed to truly thrive as threats from Novgorod, the Livonian Order, Lithuania, and Muscovite Russia all placed great pressure on the region of Latgalia.

abstract	Latgalia was first settled by Eastern Balts, from whom the Latvian and Latgalian languages were derived. Two main principalities, Jersika and Atzele, were established in the region, but neither managed to truly thrive as threats from Novgorod, the Livonian Order, Lithuania, and Muscovite Russia all placed great pressure on the region of Latgalia. Latgalia ended up under the Poland-Lithuania Commonwealth after the Livonian War. Under the Inflany Vovoideship, the Latgalian culture was developed, as was the Latgalian dialect of Latvian. Latgalia would eventually be ceded to the Russian Empire in 1772 during the First Partition of Poland. The region was largely Russified, especially in the city of Dauvgaplis. After years of seeking reunification with the rest of Latvia (which belonged to Sweden), Latgalia was added to the Republic of Latvia in 1920. The region of Latgalia was an integral part of the Latvian SSR.
