SUMMARY OF BOOK
BY
A. A. GLIOŽAITIS
ADMINISTRATIVE TERRITORIAL
DIVISION OF LITHUANIA IN MAPS
FROM THE 15th TO 20th CENTURIES
In old maps, we can find very diverse and unexpected information. To draw state
borders and boundaries of administrative territorial divisions in maps was and re¬
mains one of the greatest concerns of map authors. After determination of State
borders, its administrative territorial division is mapped. These data reflect political,
social and other composition of the state
ofthat
time, its relations with neighbou¬
ring countries. Administrative territorial division presents one of the levers of autho¬
rities in governance of a state or empire. Selection of sizes and centres of administra¬
tive territorial units and determination of their importance in state governance de¬
termines all-round development of entire region and its future perspectives. Admi¬
nistrative territorial division of Lithuania, as plotted in maps over the centuries,
reflects in a way the singularities of its complex history. In the present work, for
analysis of Lithuania s administrative territorial division we did not use all the maps
found and surviving till the present date, where the territory of Lithuania is shown.
We have analysed only those maps that, in our opinion, are more distinctive and
show in more universal manner the singularities of
administratíve
territorial division
and were drawn by authors of higher repute. Their maps also partly reflect evalua¬
tion of political affairs in Central Europe. For example, after the Union of Lublin of
1569
the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland created a federal
state. In Poland it is called
Rzeczpospolita Obojga Narodów
(the Commonwealth of
Two Peoples) or simply
Rzeczpospolita
(the Commonwealth). Among maps publis¬
hed in the Western Europe in
1
6th- 18th centuries there are no maps with the names
that could be translated to other languages as Commonwealth of Two Peoples . The
maps are entitled as
Regni
Poloniae,
Magni
Ducatus Lithuaniae...
(Kingdom of
Poland, Grand Duchy of Lithuania...),
Polonia et
Lithuania... (Poland and Lithu¬
ania...) or Die
Königliche REPUBLIK POLEN mit dem Grosherzogthum
LITHAUEN (The Royal Commonwealth
of Poland together with the Grand Du¬
chy of Lithuania), etc. The present work uses the name Lithuanian and Polish Com¬
monwealth,, which can be considered as conditionally summarised version of the
names of the federal state of Lithuania and Poland as used in maps.
Surviving written sources imply that the territory inhabited by the Baits was
already divided administratively about the 9th-
11
th centuries, but no maps exist or
372 ■
summary
were found showing the division. Only in our times creation of historical maps of
lands inhabited by the Baits in 9th— 15th centuries started, which maps also present
fragments of administrative territorial division. The earliest instance when the name
of Lithuania
—
LITUA
—
is first mentioned in written sources is the
Quedlinburg
Annals of
1009.
In maps found up to this date, the earliest mentioning of Lithua¬
nians as a tribe or nation is met in the World Map of
1311
drawn by Italian
Pietro
Visconte,
where they are named as LETOINI
PAGANI
(the pagan Lithuanians).
Lithuania as a State is first named in World Atlas by Italian cartographer
Angelino
De Laporto (in
Lithuania also known as Dulcerto or Dolorto) of
1339,
where the
World Map contains the name
oíLINTEFUNIA
(Lithuania).
The maps from the 15th century for the first time contain the name of the
LITVÁNIA
MAGNUS DUCATUS (the Grand Duchy of Lithuania). This is what
we find in the map of Central Europe by
N.
Cusanus, drawn in about
1450
and
published in
1491
(QVOD
ТОСТА
EST GERMANIA TOTA TABELLA: ET LA-
TUS
ITALIE QVODPROSPICIS
ALPES, SAUROMATUA...).
No
cartographic ma¬
terial from the 15th century showing borders of the GDL and its territorial division
was found so far. Primary information about Lithuania in the maps was not concer¬
ned with its territorial division, it has only to state that there is such a land named
Lithuania or to mark only some objects
ofthat
land. Such inscriptions are found in
maps intended to show the World or Europe.
The map of Central Europe of
N.
Cusanus as redrafted in the 16th century
(
TABULA
MODERNA
POLONIE, UNGARIE, BOEMIE, GERMANIE,
RUSSIE,
LITHUANIĘ
shows, for the first time, Lithuania as consisting of two administrative territorial units:
Samogitia and Ducatus Lithuanie (the Duchy of Lithuania), but their boundaries are
not marked. The map was upgraded in
1507
by Marcus Beneventanus.
In the 16th century, accounting of lands of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was
performed, the legislative regulation of which was described in Statutes of Lithuania
(the 1st one was adopted in
1529,
the 2nd in
1566,
and the 3rd in
1588)
and in the
Law on Valak Reform as adopted in
1557
and named the VaUk ReguUtion. During
implementation of the Valak Reform in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in
1564-
1566,
administrative reform was also performed. In
1565-1566
the Vilnius
Seimas
divided the GDL to
13
voivodeships, and the latter to
26
powiats ( districts ). Vario¬
us sources mention different numbers of voivodeships and powiats in the GDL in
the 16th century. In addition to Samogitian Eldership, from
10
to
13
voivodeships of
the GDL are mentioned, comprising from
22
to
26
powiats. The GDL administra¬
tive territorial division as approved by Vilnius
Seimas in 1565-1566,
was however,
short-lived. After Union of Lublin of
1569
the GDL lost some of its lands and the
administrative territorial division changed.
summary
щ
373
In the 16th century, map creation in the Western Europe became more intensive,
the number of maps increased and more of them have survived till the present day.
The maps also became more detailed. They present some (though non-exhaustive)
information about administrative territorial division of states, including the GDL.
The maps from the I6cil century as analysed in the present work can be relatively
divided into the following groups:
1.
Maps showing the world, the European continent or a significant part thereof;
2.
Maps showing a part of the GDL but intended to show neighbouring coun¬
tries;
3.
Maps showing the GDL together with neighbouring countries;
4.
Maps showing only the GDL.
Marking of boundaries of the GDL s administrative territorial divisions began
only in the late 16th century, for example in the map of Lithuania by Gerardus
Mercatorius (published in
1595).
In the 17th century, the GDL maps showing boundaries of its administrative
territorial units were created not only in Western Europe but also already in Lithu¬
ania. It may be claimed than among maps from the 17th century the administrative
ones prevail. Their titles usually end with a phrase like cum
suis
pahtinibus (inclu¬
ding division to voivodeships). Even when maps are not named as administrative,
most of them nevertheless include boundaries of administrative territorial units. For
example, in the map of the GDL by Duke
Mikołaj Krzysztof Radziwiłł
the Orphan
from
1613
and in other maps from the 17th century, we already find the powiats
(districtus, castellania). Initially, only their administrative centres are shown, but la¬
ter their boundaries also appear. In addition to the abovementioned administrative
territorial units of the GDL, the maps from the 17th century start showing smaller
units, like dukedoms {ducatus), lands {terra) and territories
{territorium).
Relative
division of maps drawn in the Western Europe in the 17th century and showing
Lithuania would substantially remain the same as of those from the 16th century. It
can only be appended with the group of maps showing the Lithuanian and Polish
Commonwealth.
Among maps from the 17th century we may distinguish a map of the Grand
Duchy of Lithuania of
1613
made by Lithuanians themselves under supervision and
at account of the Duke
M. K.
Radziwiłł.
It is not named as administrative, but it
provides boundaries of administrative territorial units and shows cities and towns
that were administrative centres at that time.
Maps from 17th century also reflect losses of the GDL. It has lost its southern
voivodeships (Volyn, Kiev, Braclav) and western part of Podlache Voivodeship. After
the Union of Lublin of
1569,
these voivodeships were attached to the Kingdom of
374 ■
summary
Poland. The GDL also lost its eastern administrative territorial units governed by
the Grand Duke
Casimir.
In the 18th century, map publishing became even more intensive in the Western
Europe. They acquired more details, were prepared in more professional way, and
were more varied and accurate in general. Maps made during the 17ch century con¬
tinued to be published in the 18th century as well. This includes redrafts of the
Duke M. K.
Radziwiłł
GDL map of
1613
by Blaeu and
Hondy,
maps by J. and R.
Otens showing division of the GDL to voivodeships, etc. Maps showing the GDL
were drawn in Western Europe, and in the second half of the 18th century they also
appeared in the Russian Empire. Relative division of maps from the 18th century
with entire GDL or a part of it shown would remain the same as that for maps from
the
17
century. It can only be appended with maps showing partitions of the
Lithuanian and Polish Commonwealth.
GDL maps drawn in the 18ch century in the Western Europe mark from
7
to
9
voivodeships, the Duchy of Samogitia and the Courland. Samogitia is presented as
administrative territorial unit of the GDL and is named as a duchy. Its western
boundary reaches the Baltic Sea, and the northeast corner is shown in various ways.
In some maps Samogitia is not attributed to the GDL. There are maps where Polese
-
a former voivodeship of Brest (Brasta)
-
is not attributed to the GDL as well.
Other maps show Vitebsk Voivodeship s Breslauja
powiat
as a separate voivodeship.
Some maps contain inscription Lithuania
Propria
(the Real Lithuania), and mark its
boundaries. It is identified with boundaries of Vilnius and Trakai Voivodeships.
There also are such inscriptions as Russia Alba (the White Russia), Livonie Polonoise
(the Polish Livonia),
Russie
bhnche Polonoise (the White Polish Russia), Russia Polo-
noise (the Polish Russia). There are maps showing the Lithuanian and Polish Com¬
monwealth but naming it as the Kingdom of Poland. There the GDL is understood
as administrative territorial unit of the Kingdom of Poland
—
a governorate.
At the end of the 18th century, drawing of the GDL maps started in the Russian
Empire as well. Some maps that were drawn in the Western Europe and the Russian
Empire in the second half of the 18th century show boundaries of partitions of the
Lithuanian and Polish Commonwealth. There were three partitions (in
1772, 1793
and
1795).
The GDL lands that were taken by the Russian Empire during the first
partition of the Lithuanian and Polish Commonwealth are shown in the maps in two
ways: as still belonging to the GDL and bordering with the Russian Empire in the
east or as lands of the Russian Empire. Maps that mark the partitions of the Lithu¬
anian and Polish Commonwealth and were drawn
ín
the Western Europe still show
the former administrative territorial units of the GDL, and only some cases their
boundaries are adjusted.
SUMMARY
■
Maps created in the 18th century in the Russian Empire show administrative
territorial division of the GDL as established by authorities of the Empire. Lithua¬
nian is divided into vicegerencies
{намесничество),
governorates
and districts
{уезд).
The administrative territorial division was frequently changed to adapt it to the
needs of the imperial authorities. Centres of administrative territorial units were also
modified. For example, Trakai were turned into district centre only, the Duchy of
Samogitia disappearedat all, etc. All these facts are reflected in maps and atlases
issued in the Russian Empire.
Various information about administrative territorial division of the GDL can be
found in the maps from Western Europe from the 16th—
1
8th centuries. For example,
in some maps, western boundary of Samogitia does not reach the Baltic Sea, and its
northeast corner goes as far as
Zárasai,
etc. Neighbours of the GDL are named in
different ways in the maps. Maps from the 16th century show that in the east the
GDL adjoins Russtaalba
sive
Moscovia
(the White Russia or
Moscovia)
or Ducatus
Moscovia
(Duchy of Moscow) and Smolenzcnia (Smolensk Land). In the 17ch century
it is claimed that in the east the GDL adjoins Alba Moscoviaepars (the land of the
White Moscow) or
Magni
Ducis
Moscovia
(the Grand Duke of Moscow), or Knes nu
Czar de
Moscovie (the Duke and Now Czar of Moscow). There are maps that, among
eastern neighbours of the GDL, list duchies:
Duche
de
Smolensko (Smolensk Duchy),
Duche
de Novogorod
Severskí
(Duchy of Novgorod
Severskí)
and
duche de Czernihow
(Duchy of Chernihow). Maps from the 18th century indicate that in the east the
GDL adjoins
Moscovia,
or
Frontieres
des Estats du
Czar de Moscovie
(lands of the
Czar
of Moscow), or Russiae Nigrae (the Black Russia), or simply Russia, or Russian Empire
Europe (Empire ofEuropean Russia). On the eastern periphery of the GDL they also
distinguish the duchies of Smolensk, Novgorod, Severs and Chernihow. There are
maps that name the territory that fell to Russia during the first partition of the
Lithuanian and Polish Commonwealth as
Parte del regno di Polonia ceduta
Aliba
Russia
(the part of the Kingdom of Poland that was transferred to the White Russia).
Some maps from the 18th century that were intended to show Russia indicate as
its western neighbour not the GDL but Poland. For example, Jacques Chiquet
( 1673-
1721), ín
his map
1711
Estates
du
grand
duc de
Moscovie
ou de lempereur de L·
Russia
Blanca
drawn
ín
1711,
instead of the GDL as western neighbouring country shows
Partie
de
Pohgne
(part
of Poland). Isaak Tirion
(?? —
approx.1769) in his map of
Russia Nieuwekaart
von Muskovie
as
Rusland
issued about
1734
notes that Russia s
western neighbour is
Polen
(Poland). In smaller font, as administrative units of Po¬
land, it shows Lithuwen and Volhynie (Lithuanian and Volyn).
In the 19th century, map publishing became more active in the Russian Empire.
In their quality, these maps already matched those published in the Western Euro-
376 ■
summary
pe.
The maps from the 19rh century, especially administrative ones, reflect in a way
the position of Lithuania in European political development
ofthat
time.
Empires expanded in the 19th century, and therefore the administrative territo¬
rial division was frequently changed and adapted to the needs of these empires.
Under influence of these processes, the GDL decayed already at the end of the 18Eh
century. From then on the name of Lithuania stops to be mentioned in maps. The
GDL and its former administrative territorial division are shown only in historical
maps. From the end of the 18th century and up to beginning of the 20th century,
Lithuania s administrative territorial division was mapped only by cartographers of
the Russian Empire. Boundaries of administrative units are shown in maps
ofthat
time. These were also prepared for separate regions and each governorate. Administ¬
rative maps of governorates also used to show boundaries of districts {ujiezd).
During the war between Russia and France of
1812,
French administrative terri¬
torial division was introduced in Lithuania. The GDL was divided into departments
and districts. After the war, the GDL administrative territorial divisions as introdu¬
ced by the Russian Empire were restored. Up to the middle of the 19th century,
number and names of governorates in the GDL territory were changed. Later these
changes ceased. All this was reflected in maps. The maps were published in Russian
and Polish.
Užnemuné
Region (Sudovia), which was attributed to Augustav Gover¬
norate of the Kingdom of Poland and later to that of
Suwałki,
is shown in maps of
the Kingdom of Poland.
For entire
19
century, the authorities of the Russian Empire aimed to denationa¬
lise Lithuania. Administrative territorial division also was supposed to serve the goals
of this policy. For this purpose the administrative territorial units were connected
into regions: Western Russia, Northwest Region, etc. Special laws were issued for
these regions, restricting rights and activities of native peoples.
In the beginning of the 20th century, publishing of maps of Lithuania in Lithu¬
anian started.
In the
20
century, boundaries of Lithuanian administrative territorial units we¬
re drawn by Russia, Germany and USSR, by the Allied Powers, Poland, France and,
after restoration of statehood in
1918,
by the Republic of Lithuania as well. Each
occupational authority, considering its own needs, implemented selection of num¬
ber of levels of administrative territorial units. Two- or three-level administrative
territorial division used to be chosen. Each of the powers also changed sizes, bounda¬
ries and names of the administrative territorial units. During the World War I and
II, occupational regimes introduced administrative territorial divisions that were adap¬
ted to the needs of wars. The former administrative territorial division can be seen in
maps
ofthat
time.
SUMMARY
After
the
World War
I, when statehood was restored
Ín
the Republic of Lithua¬
nia, it was divided into counties and rural districts. This type of administrative ter¬
ritorial division remained in force up to occupation of Lithuania in
1940
as a result
of
Molotov-
Ribbentrop Pact, and the beginning of the World War II. In the course
of the war, the Republic of Lithuania was occupied by Germany and named as
Generalbezirks Litauen
(general district of Lithuania), and German administrative
territorial division was introduced. At the end of the war, the Republic of Lithuania
was once again occupied by the USSR.
Military resistance to the second occupation by the USSR began in the Republic
of Lithuania already before the end of the World War II. It was professionally orga¬
nised and comprised entire territory of the Republic of Lithuania. The armed resis¬
tance was organised on territorial basis. The Union of Lithuanian Freedom Fighters
divided entire Lithuanian territory into three areas: Western Lithuania (the Sea s),
Eastern Lithuania (the King s Mindaugas) and Southern Lithuania (the Nemunas ).
These areas were subdivided into nine districts. The area of Western Lithuania was
divided into Zemaiciq.,
Prisikêlimo
and
Kźstucio
districts; the area of Southern Lit¬
huania
-
into
Tauro
and Dainavos districts; and the area of Eastern Lithuania
-
into
Algirdo,
Vyčio,
Vytauto and
Didžiosios
Kovos districts. In turn, each district was
divided into troops that had their own territories of activity.
26
troops operated
Ín
total. Documentary evidence shows that command of the Union of Lithuanian Fre¬
edom Fighters had divided entire territory of Lithuania on three levels: area, district
and territory or troop activities. In territories of troop activities, companies and re¬
gions operated. For example, in the troop of Duke
Margis,
companies of Gedimino,
Dariaus
ir Giréno
and
Tumo-Vaižganto
operated, just as
Auçros
region. Such admi¬
nistrative territorial division allowed efficient control of entire Lithuanian territory
under conditions of war. The administrative territorial division of Lithuania as set by
command of the Union of Lithuanian Freedom Fighters was marked in its maps but
not publicised in the conditions of fight. A part of the maps, schemes and docu¬
ments have survived and are kept in the Genocide and Resistance Research Centre.
The Russian Empire, the German Reich and the USSR paid special importance
to drawing of boundaries of administrative territorial units in maps. The USSR aut¬
horities, maintaining traditions of the czarist Russia, used the administrative territo¬
rial division in its attempts to implement annexation policies and to facilitate gover¬
nance of the huge empire. The principle attitude was to divide the USSR into soviet
republics
(SSR).
These in turn were
¿iviáeà
into smaller administrative territorial
units (autonomous soviet socialist republics, lands, areas, regions, districts, etc.).
Administrative territorial division of the USSR was complex and confused, declared
to be based upon ethnic principles but in practice the these were not followed.

including administrative boundaries. This was used in cartography factories.
The administrative territorial division as introduced by the USSR was used for half
of the century.
After restoration of independence of the Republic of Lithuania in
1990,
active
discussions concerning administrative territorial division took place among politi¬
cians, social figures and in media. Preparation of the Law on the Territorial Admi¬
nistrative Units of the Republic of Lithuania was politicised. Attempts to influence
these discussions were made by public organisation and even public servants of neigh¬
bouring countries. It was decided to preserve the occupational administrative terri¬
torial division of Lithuania into regions and their boundaries, and, after connecting
them, to create a new governance level
—
counties. For this purpose, on
19
July
1994
the
Seimas
of the Republic of Lithuania adopted the Law on Administrative Territo¬
rial Units of the Republic of Lithuania and their Boundaries. First article of the Law
states that the
territorial
administrative unit of the Republic of Lithuania is apart of the
territory, the governing whereof is organised by the Government of the Republic of Lithua¬
nia or the institutions of local authorities. Article three states that towns are compactly
built up residential areas, the population of which exceeds
3000.
Article four lists
municipalities of the Republic of Lithuania
(56
in total). Article five enumerates
counties (ten counties in
totói).
First paragraph of the Lithuanian
Seimas
decree On Implementation of the Law of
the Republic ofLithuania on Administrative Territorial Units and their Boundaries states
that administrative territorial reformation shall be implemented in two stages. Fourth
paragraph states that an alternative bill concerning territorial administrative units of
the Republic ofLithuania and their boundaries will be presented, which will consti¬
tute a project for second stage of the reform. Such project was published on
19
August
1994
in official magazine Valstybe s
žiniosNo.
64.
In
2000
the number of municipalities was increased. In the beginning of
2000,
there were
10
counties,
60
municipalities and
546
elderships in the Republic of
Lithuania. The administrative territorial reform is not yet completed. Preparations
for second stage of the administrative territorial reformation are still in progress.
Association of Lithuanian Municipalities believes that the process must be imple¬
mented gradually. It is planned that in
2008
the Government of the Republic of
Lithuania will present its suggestions on reformation of administrative territorial
division until municipal elections of
2011.
