Radom Governorate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Radom Governorate (Polish: Gubernia radomska) was an administrative unit (governorate) of the Congress Poland.
[edit] History
It was created in 1844 from the merger of the Sandomierz Governorate with Kielce Governorate. Its capital was in Radom (previously a capital of the Sandomierz Governorate).
It was divided into 8 powiats: kielecki, miechowski, olkuski, opatowski, opoczyński, radomski, sandomierski.
In 1866 the Kielce Governorate was once again made an independent entity, and thus split off from the Radom Governorate.
