The Wilno Voivodeship ((ポーランド語:województwo wileńskie)), was one of Voivodeships in the Second Polish Republic, with the capital in Wilno. It was created in 1926 and populated predominantly by Poles with notable minorities of Belarusians, Jews, and Lithuanians. Wilno Voivodeship area was 29,011 square kilometers with the population of 1,276 million. Following the German and Soviet invasion of Poland, at the insistence of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin at the Tehran Conference of 1943, Poland's borders were redrawn and Wilno Voivodeship was incorporated into the Lithuanian and Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republics. The Polish population was forcibly resettled at the end of World War II. Since 1991, the former territory of the voivodeship is a part of Lithuania and Belarus. ==History== In 1920 following the Polish-Lithuanian War and the Żeligowski's Mutiny, Vilnius region became part of the Republic of Central Lithuania. In 1922, after a disputed election to the Vilnius Sejm, Central Lithuania was incorporated by parliament into the Second Polish Republic. From 6 April 1922 to 20 January 1926 the territory was known as the Wilno Land (''ziemia wileńska''). Wilno Voivodeship was created on 20 January 1926 from the territories of the Wilno Land. In 1 April 1927, Mołodeczno county 〔http://isap.sejm.gov.pl/DetailsServlet?id=WDU19250670472〕〔http://isap.sejm.gov.pl/DetailsServlet?id=WDU19260260158〕 and 〔http://isap.sejm.gov.pl/DetailsServlet?id=WDU19270080062〕 was created from parts of Vilejka (5 gminas), Oszmiana (1 gmina), Wołożyń (1 gmina) 〔http://isap.sejm.gov.pl/DetailsServlet?id=WDU19260450277〕 and Stołpce (1 gmina) 〔 countries. In 1 April 1929, Bienica gmina of Mołodeczno country was dissolved and was bounded to Wojstom gmina of Vilejka country. At same day, Kozłowszczyzna and Norzyca gminas of Postawy was dissolved and passed to Szarkowszczyzna and Głębokie gminas and of Dzisna country, Wierzchnie gmina of Dzisna was dissolved and passed to Postawy country, Jody gmina of Brasław country was dissolved and was passed to Szarkowszczyzna gmina of Dzisna country.〔http://isap.sejm.gov.pl/DetailsServlet?id=WDU19290140119〕 It was formed as the last of the Polish voivodeships in the interbellum (although the Sandomierz Voivodeship was to be created in late 1939). Following the Soviet invasion in 1939, the Voivodeship was divided between the newly created Vileyka Voblast of the Belarusian SSR and independent Lithuania (from 1940 the Lithuanian SSR). This division wasn't internationally accepted. The Polish government-in-exile nominated Zygmunt Fedorowicz in 1942 as its representative for Wilno region. He was arrested by NKVD in 1944. Currently the former territory of Wilno Voivodeship is divided between the Vilnius and Utena counties in Lithuania and the Grodno, Minsk and Vitebsk Regions of Belarus. 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「Wilno Voivodeship (1926–39)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
