Primorsky Krai (Russian: Примо́рский край, tr. Primorsky kray; IPA: [prʲɪˈmorskʲɪj kraj]) is a federal subject (a krai) of Russia. It is geographically located in the Far East region of the country and administratively part of the Far Eastern Federal District. Primorsky Krai is the largest federal subject in the Far East in economic size, and in population with 1,956,497 (2010). Vladivostok is the largest city and the capital of Primorsky Krai, and is the largest city in the Russian Far East.
Primorsky Krai is derived from the Russian terms primorsky, meaning "maritime", and kray, meaning "edge" or "frontier". It is informally known as Primorye (Примо́рье, IPA: [prʲɪˈmorʲjɪ]) in Russia, and Maritime Territory in certain English translations. Primorsky Krai shares Russia's only border with North Korea, along the Tumen River in Khasansky District in the south-western corner of the krai. Peter the Great Gulf, the largest gulf in the Sea of Japan, is located along the south coast.
Historically part of Manchuria, Primorsky Krai was ceded to the Russian Empire by Qing China in 1860 as part of a region known as Outer Manchuria, forming most of the territory of Primorskaya Oblast. During the Russian Civil War it became part of the Far Eastern Republic before joining the Soviet Union, going through numerous changes until reaching its current form in 1938. Primorsky Krai is home to the Russian Navy's Russian Pacific Fleet.
