Hinterland

n. remote or undeveloped areas of a country, back country

This page is about the geographical term. For other uses, see Hinterland (disambiguation). The hinterland is the land or district behind the borders of a coast or river. Specifically, by the doctrine of the hinterland, the word is applied to the inland region lying behind a port, claimed by the state that owns the coast. The area from which products are delivered to a port for shipping elsewhere is that port's hinterland. Contrast foreland, the places to which a port ships.
