Major events
edit- June 14 [O.S. June 3], 1710—Ingermanland Governorate was renamed St. Petersburg Governorate after the city of St. Petersburg.
- October 25 [O.S. October 14], 1710—all governorates were divided into lots (Russian: доли)[1]—a new level of grouping above dvors (courts of knyazes). A "lot" was defined as a unit grouping 5,536 dvors. The process of introducing lots lasted until 1713. As a result, all governorates were subdivided into a total of 146.7 lots.
