History
In the 18th century, the areas which were later occupied by Tver Governorate were split between Moscow and Novgorod Governorates. On 25 November 1775 Tver Viceroyalty was established with the administrative center in Tver. On 12 December 1796 the viceroyalty was transformed into Tver Governorate.[1]
In 1796, the viceroyalty was subdivided into thirteen uyezds, however, Tver Governorate originally only had nine uyezds[2][3]
- Bezhetsky Uyezd (the administrative center in the town of Bezhetsk);
- Kashinsky Uyezd (Kashin);
- Novotorzhsky Uyezd (Torzhok);
- Ostashkovsky Uyezd (Ostashkov);
- Rzhevsky Uyezd (Rzhev);
- Staritsky Uyezd (Staritsa);
- Tverskoy Uyezd (Tver);
- Vyshnevolotsky Uyezd (Vyshny Volochyok);
- Zubtsovsky Uyezd (Zubtsov).
In 1803, three more uyezds were established: Kalyazinsky Uyezd (Kalyazin), Korchevskoy Uyezd (Korcheva), and Vesyegonsky Uyezd (Vesyegonsk).
In 1918, Krasnokholmsky Uyezd with the center of Krasny Kholm was established on the territory previously belonged to Bezhetsky and Vesyegonsky Uyezds. In the same year, Kimrsky Uyezd (Kimry) was established on the lands which belonged to Korchevskoy and Kalyazinsky Uyezds. In 1919 and 1921, minor areas, which included the town of Leninsk, were transferred to Moscow Governorate.[4]
On 25 April 1921 Vesyegonsky and Krasnokholmsky Uyezd were transferred to Rybinsk Governorate. On 6 February 1923 Rybinsk Governorate was abolished, and the two uyezds were transferred to Tver Governorate.[4]
On 30 May 1922 three uyezds were abolished. Zubtsovsky Uyezd was merged into Rzhevsky Uyezd, Kalyazinsky Uyezd – into Kashinsky Uyezd, and Korchevskoy Uyezd – into Kimrsky Uyezd.On 3 March 1924 Krasnokholmsky Uyezd was abolished and split between Bezhetsky and Vesyegonsky District, whereas Staritsky Uyezd was abolished and split between Rzhevsky, Novotorzhsky, and Tverskoy Uyezds. On 3 October 1927 Kashinsky Uyezd was abolished and split between Bezhetsky and Kimrsky Uyezds.[4]
On 12 August 1929, Tver Governorate was abolished and split between Moscow and Western Oblasts.[4]
