Podlaskie Voivodeship, Administrative division in northeastern Poland
Podlaskie Voivodeship covers 20,187 square kilometers with lakes, forests, and rivers, forming one of the 16 administrative regions of Poland.
The region emerged from the 1999 administrative reform, combining the former territories of Białystok, Łomża, and part of Suwałki voivodeships.
The population of Podlaskie includes Polish, Belarusian, and Lithuanian communities, each maintaining their distinct languages and traditional practices.
The voivodeship operates through a system of counties and communes, with Białystok serving as the administrative center for regional services.
The territory contains the Białowieża Forest, where European bison roam freely within the last remnants of primeval woodland in Europe.
