The Poltava Governorate (; translit.: ''Poltavskaya guberniya'', ) or Government of Poltava was a guberniya in the historical Left-bank Ukraine region of the Russian Empire, which was officially created in 1802 from the disbanded Malorossiya Governorate which was split between the Chernigov Governorate and Poltava Governorate with an administrative center of Poltava. ==Administrative division== It was administered by 15 uezds (povits): *Gadyach – Гадячъ (Hadiach) *Zenkov – Зеньковъ (Zinkiv) *Zolotonosha – Золотоноша *Kobeliaky – Кобеляки *Konstantinograd – Константиноградъ (modern Krasnohrad) *Kremenchug – Кременчугъ (Kremenchuk) *Lokhvytsia – Лохвица (Lokhvytsia) *Lubny – Лубны *Mirgorod – Миргородъ (Myrhorod) *Pereyaslav – Переяславъ (modern Pereyaslav-Khmelnytskyi) *Pyriatyn – Пирятинъ (Pyriatyn) *Poltava – Полтава *Pryluky – Прилуки (Pryluky) *Romny – Ромны *Khorol – Хороль Most of these ended up in the modern Poltava Oblast of Ukraine, although some: Zolotonosha, Konstantinograd, Pereyaslav and Romny are now part of Cherkasy, Kharkiv, Kiev and Sumy Oblasts respectively. The Poltava Governorate covered a total area of 49,365 km², and had a population of 2,778,151 according to the 1897 Russian Empire census. It was bordering the following Russian Governorates: Chernigov Governorate and Kursk Governorate to the ''north'', Kiev Governorate to the ''west'', Kharkov Governorate to the ''east'', Kherson Governorate and Yekaterinoslav Governorate to the ''south''. In 1914, the population was 2,794,727. After the formation of the Ukrainian SSR, the territory was wholly included into the new Soviet Republic. Initially the governorate system was retained although variations included the Kremenchug Governorate which was temporarily formed on its territory (August 1920 – December 1922), and the passing of the Pereyaslav uezd to the Kiev Governorate. However on Third of June 1925 the guberniya was liquidated and replaced by seven okrugs (which already were the uyezd subdivision as of seventh of March 1923): Zolotoninsky, Krasnohradsky, Kremenchutsky, Lubensky, Poltavsky, Prylutsky and Romensky. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Poltava Governorate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
