Podlasie Voivodship

The Podlasie Voivodship (in Polish województwo podlaskie) is an administrative region or voivodship of north-easternPoland.

It was created on 1 January 1999 out of the former Bialystok, Lomza and half of Suwalki voivodships as a result of Local Goverment Reogranization Act of 1998. The voivodship's name recalls the region's traditional name of Podlasie (Podlasie).
