Examples
Opole Voivodeship is bordered by Lower Silesian Voivodeship to the west, Greater Poland and Łódź Voivodeships to the north, Silesian Voivodeship to the east, and the Czech Republic to the south.
Opole Voivodeship was also a unit of administrative division and local government in Poland between 1975 and 1998.
The new units range in area from less than convert for Opole Voivodeship to more than convert for Masovian Voivodeship.
The new units range in area from under convert ( Opole Voivodeship ) to over convert ( Masovian Voivodeship ), and in population from one million ( Lubusz Voivodeship ) to over five million (Masovian Voivodeship).
The solution came in late 1999, when Olesno was, after 24 years apart, finally reunited with the Opole Voivodeship to form the new legally defined region.
