The Governorate of Estonia[1] (also Esthonia;[2] {{lang-et|Eestimaa kubermang}}; {{lang-de|Gouvernement Est(h)land}}) or Duchy of Estonia, also known as the Government of Estonia, was a governorate of the Russian Empire in what is now northern Estonia. It bordered the Livonian Governorate to the south.

The Governorate was gained by the Russian Empire from Sweden during the Great Northern War in 1721.[3][4] The Russian Tsars held the title Duke of Estonia ({{lang-ru|link=no|Князь Эстляндский}}, Knyaz' Estlyandskii), during the Imperial Russian era in English sometimes also referred to as Prince of Estonia.[5]

Until the late 19th century the governorate was administered independently by the local Baltic German nobility through a feudal Regional Council ({{lang-de|link=no|Landtag}}).[6]

History

Initially named the Reval Governorate after the city of Reval, today known as Tallinn, it was created in 1719 out of territories conquered from Sweden in the Great Northern War. The former dominion of Swedish Estonia was formally ceded to Russia in the Treaty of Nystad in 1721. During subsequent administrative reordering, the governorate was renamed in 1796 into the Governorate of Estonia. While the rule of the Swedish kings had been fairly liberal with greater autonomy granted for the peasantry, the regime was tightened under the Russian tsars and serfdom was not abolished until 1819.

The governorate consisted the northern part of the present-day Estonia approximately corresponding to Harjumaa including the city of Tallinn, Western Virumaa, Eastern Virumaa, Raplamaa, Järvamaa, Läänemaa and Hiiumaa. After the Russian February Revolution on {{OldStyleDate|12 April|1917|30 March}}) it was expanded to include northern Livonia, thereby forming the Autonomous Governorate of Estonia. Tallinn remained under Soviet control until 24 February 1918, when German troops occupied Estonia and Estonian independence was declared.

Subdivisions

The governorate was subdivided into four Kreises (uyezds).[7]

  • Kreis Wierland – Wesenberg
  • Kreis Jerwen – Weissenstein
  • Kreis Harrien – Reval (capital)
  • Kreis Wiek – Hapsal (including the Dagö island)
