Inflanty Voivodeship

The Inflanty Voivodeship (), or "Livonian Voivodeship", also known as Polish Livonia, was an administrative division and local government in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, since it was formed in the 1620s out of the Wenden Voivodeship and lasted until the First Partition of Poland in 1772. The Inflanty Voivodeship was one of the few territories of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth to be ruled jointly by Poland and Lithuania.
Overview.
The Inflanty Voivodeship, also called the "Duchy of Inflanty", due to a 1667 bill of the Sejm, was the minority remainder of the Duchy of Livonia, which had been conquered by the Swedish Empire during the Polish–Swedish War of 1621–1625. The seat of the voivode was Dyneburg (Daugavpils).
The name "Inflanty" is derived through Polonization of "Livland", the German name for Livonia. In modern times the region is known as Latgalia in the Republic of Latvia.
Zygmunt Gloger in his monumental book "Historical Geography of the Lands of Old Poland" provides this description of Inflanty Voivodeship:
