History
Wilno Land was formed on 13 April 1922, from territories of Republic of Central Lithuania, following its incorporation by Second Polish Republic.[1] The annexation itself was decided in the bill signed on 6 April 1922. The annexed lands included the city of Vilnius as well as the territories of Brasław, Oszmiana, Święciany, Troki and Wilno Counties. Additionally to territory were added Duniłowicze, Dzisna and Wilejka Counties from neighbouring Nowogródek Voivodeship.[2] Between 1923 and 1924, Wilno and Troki Counties were combined into Wilno-Troki County, tough de facto they acted as singular county since 1921.[4] On 1 January 1926, Duniłowicze County was transformed into Postawy County.[5]
On 20 January 1926, following the bill from 22 December 1925, Wilno Land was transformed into the Wilno Voivodeship, becoming the last voivodeship of the Second Polish Republic to be formed.[3]
