Probably neither, since Konigsburg IS in the North of East Prussia, which at
the time of HPB, was the Northernmost part of the German Empire which
included all of Prussia.

<<And, it should be added in this Kant year, strange things are to be found

For example, on p. I:601 she wrote about Kant:
"In this theory, generated and developed in the brain of a young man hardly
twenty-five years of age, who had never left his native place, a small town
of Northern Prussia (Königsberg) one can hardly fail to recognise either an
inspiring external power, or the reincarnation which the Occultists see in
it."
But Königsberg is not in Northern, but in East Prussia and (at least until
1945) the capital of it.
Is this a slip of HPB's memory or is it an occult hint? And if so, which?>>
