Masovian Voivodeship

The Masovian Voivodeship spans 35,579 square kilometers across east-central Poland, making it the largest administrative division in the country with Warsaw as its capital point.

The region underwent administrative reforms in 1999, consolidating several smaller provinces into the current structure with 42 powiats and numerous gminas for local governance.

The voivodeship maintains multiple regional museums, theaters, and educational centers that preserve and present traditions from eastern Polish territories.

The administrative division connects six neighboring provinces through an extensive network of railways and highways, facilitating transportation across the entire eastern part of Poland.

This voivodeship generates 22.8 percent of Poland's total GDP, representing the highest economic output among all administrative regions in the country.
