> allmende

Can't find this word in any English dictionary I checked, what does it mean?

It’s German meaning “commons" - communal lands.

Alemania(SP)/Allemagne(FR) for Germany -- must be related??

Similar etymology, I would suppose “All mans” https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alamans

It sounds a lot like "allmänning", which means common land (obviously)
