The article provides an overview of exonyms used in reference to Poland in Chinese-language cartographic and textual sources from the period of Imperial China (i.e. until 1912) with the earliest source dating back to the 14th century. Extensive excerpts of the textual sources have been quoted and translated into Polish to providethe reader with information on the state of knowledge about Poland amongst Chinese officials, scholars and rulers from that period. The use of Chinese-language texts written both by Chinese and foreign authors allows for a basic analysis of foreign influences on Chinese exonymy. Fragments of maps have been included in the article to introduce the reader to the style and level of Chinese cartography from the period.
