Livonijos vaivadija) was a unit of administrative division and local government in the
Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth , since it was formed in the 1620s out of theWenden Voivodeship and lasted until the First Partition of Poland in 1772. The Inflanty Voivodeship was one of the few territories of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth to be ruled jointly by Poland and Lithuania.The Inflanty Voivodeship, sometimes referred to the "Principality of Inflanty" after 1660, was the minority remainder of Polish Livonia, as the duchy had been conquered by the
Swedish Empire during the Polish–Swedish War of 1621–1625.The seat of the
voivode was Dyneburg (Daugavpils ).The name "Inflanty" is derived through
Polonisation of "Livland", the German name forLivonia . In modern times the region is known asLatgale in the Republic ofLatvia .
