All <i>ziemias</i> are named after main urban centers (or <a href="/wiki/Gord_(archaeology)" title="Gord (archaeology)">gords</a>) of a given area: <i>ziemia krakowska</i> (after <a href="/wiki/Krak%C3%B3w" title="Kraków">Kraków</a>), or <i>ziemia lubelska</i> (after <a href="/wiki/Lublin" title="Lublin">Lublin</a>). In some cases, the suffix "-szczyzna" is added to the name of a <i>ziemia</i>: <i>ziemia lubelska</i> is also called <i><a href="/wiki/Lubelszczyzna" class="mw-redirect" title="Lubelszczyzna">Lubelszczyzna</a></i>, while <i>ziemia opolska</i> (named after <a href="/wiki/Opole" title="Opole">Opole</a>) - <i><a href="/wiki/Opolszczyzna" class="mw-redirect" title="Opolszczyzna">Opolszczyzna</a></i>. </p><p>The term <i>ziemia</i> appeared for the first time in <a href="/wiki/History_of_Poland_(966%E2%80%931385)" class="mw-redirect" title="History of Poland (966–1385)">medieval Poland</a> (12th-13th centuries), after the <a href="/wiki/Fragmentation_of_Poland" class="mw-redirect" title="Fragmentation of Poland">fragmentation of Poland</a>. It referred to a former <a href="/wiki/Princedom" class="mw-redirect" title="Princedom">princedom</a> or <a href="/wiki/Duchy" title="Duchy">duchy</a>, which was unified with the <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Poland_(1025%E2%80%931385)" class="mw-redirect" title="Kingdom of Poland (1025–1385)">Polish Kingdom</a>, and lost its political sovereignty, but retained its <a href="/wiki/Hierarchy" title="Hierarchy">hierarchy</a> of <a href="/wiki/Officials" class="mw-redirect" title="Officials">officials</a> and <a href="/wiki/Bureaucracy" title="Bureaucracy">bureaucracy</a>. From around the 14th century some of the former princedoms, now <i>ziemia</i>s, were assigned to officials known as <a href="/wiki/Voivode" title="Voivode">voivodes</a> and became primary units of administration known as <a href="/wiki/Voivodeship" title="Voivodeship">voivodeships</a> (provinces). Therefore, the <a href="/wiki/Duchy_of_Sandomierz" title="Duchy of Sandomierz">Duchy of Sandomierz</a> was turned into the <i>Land of Sandomierz</i>, which in the early 14th century became <a href="/wiki/Sandomierz_Voivodeship" title="Sandomierz Voivodeship">Sandomierz Voivodeship</a>. </p><p>However, in some cases <i>ziemia</i>s were not transformed into voivodeships. They were subordinated to a voivodeship and a certain voivode, but nevertheless retained some distinct privileges and properties, such as often having their own <a href="/wiki/Sejmik" title="Sejmik">sejmik</a> (regional parliament), and were still referred to as a <i>ziemia</i>, not a voivodeship. Some voivodeships, such as <a href="/wiki/Ruthenian_Voivodeship" title="Ruthenian Voivodeship">Ruthenian Voivodeship</a> or <a href="/wiki/Masovian_Voivodeship_(1526%E2%80%931795)" title="Masovian Voivodeship (1526–1795)">Masovian Voivodeship</a>, consisted of several <i>ziemias</i>, each divided into counties (<a href="/wiki/Powiat" title="Powiat">powiat</a>). Over subsequent centuries, <i>ziemia</i>s became increasingly integrated into their voivodeships and lost most of their autonomy. </p><p>In the <a href="/wiki/Imperial_Russia" class="mw-redirect" title="Imperial Russia">Imperial Russia</a> there was an institution of <a href="/wiki/Zemstvo" title="Zemstvo">zemstvo</a> or local council. </p><p>Today they are not units of administration, and in modern Poland are only generic geographical terms referring to certain parts of Poland. Currently, the term <i>ziemia</i> may apply to any area, historic or not, which is located around a main town or city. In Ukraine the term was intended to be introduced by <a href="/wiki/Mykhailo_Hrushevskyi" class="mw-redirect" title="Mykhailo Hrushevskyi">Mykhailo Hrushevskyi</a> in Ukraine as part of the administrative reform in 1918 which was interrupted by the <a href="/wiki/Pavlo_Skoropadskyi" title="Pavlo Skoropadskyi">Pavlo Skoropadskyi</a> coup in April of that year. Currently <a href="/wiki/Oblasts_of_Ukraine" title="Oblasts of Ukraine">oblasts of Ukraine</a> are alternatively known through adding <i>-shchyna</i> to the administrative center's name such as <a href="/wiki/Zhytomyrshchyna" class="mw-redirect" title="Zhytomyrshchyna">Zhytomyrshchyna</a> for <a href="/wiki/Zhytomyr_Oblast" title="Zhytomyr Oblast">Zhytomyr Oblast</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="List_of_ziemias_in_the_Polish-Lithuanian_Commonwealth">List of ziemias in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Land_(administrative_unit_of_Poland)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: List of ziemias in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>Ziemia bielska (<a href="/wiki/Bielsk_Land" title="Bielsk Land">Bielsk Land</a>, named after <a href="/wiki/Bielsk_Podlaski" title="Bielsk Podlaski">Bielsk Podlaski</a>).
