Warsaw Governorate

Warsaw Governorate

Warsaw Governorate ( _pl. Gubernia warszawska) was an administrative unit (governorate) of the Congress Poland.

It was created in 1844 from the Masovia and Kalisz Governorates, and had the capital in Warsaw. In 1867 territories of the Warsaw Governorate were divided into three smaller governorates: a smaller Warsaw Governorate, Piotrków Governorate and the recreated Kalisz Governorate.

Small reform of 1893 increased the Warsaw Governorate with territories split of Płock and Łomża Governorates.
