HINTERLAND

HINTERLAND Hin "ter *land `, n. [G.; hinter behind + land land. ]

 

Defn: The land or region lying behind the coast district. The term is used esp. with reference to the so-called doctrine of the hinterland, sometimes advanced, that occupation of the coast supports a claim to an exclusive right to occupy, from time to time, the territory lying inland of the coast.
