History of the formation of the Nizhny Novgorod province
During the provincial division of 1708, carried out in the course of the regional reforms of Peter I, Nizhny Novgorod was included in the Kazan province. Since January 1714, the northwestern part of its territory was allocated to the Nizhny Novgorod province. In addition to Nizhny Novgorod, the province included the cities of Alatyr, Arzamas, Balakhna, Vasilsursk, Gorokhovets, Kurmysh, Yuryevets, Yadrin with adjacent territories. In 1717, the province was abolished, the territories returned to the Kazan province, but two years later, by decree of Peter I of May 29, 1719, the Nizhny Novgorod province was again recreated.
During the administrative reform of Catherine II in 1778, the territories of the Nizhny Novgorod province first became part of the Ryazan governorate, and in 1779 the Nizhny Novgorod governorship was established, which included the old Nizhny Novgorod governorate, as well as parts of the Ryazan and Volodymyr (Vladimir) governorships and part of the Kazan governorate. Under Paul I, the reverse renaming took place: governorships were renamed into provinces.
In October 1797, the size of the Nizhny Novgorod province was increased due to the territories received during the division of the Penza province. After the accession of Alexander I to the throne on September 9, 1801, the Penza province was restored to its previous extent.
When the Nizhny Novgorod governorate was formed in 1779, it was divided into 13 districts. In 1796, when the governorship became a province, the Knyagininsky, Makaryevsky, Pochinkovsky, Pyansk-Perevozsky and Sergachsky districts were abolished. In 1804, Knyagininsky, Makaryevsky and Sergachsky districts were restored. As a result, until 1917, the Nizhny Novgorod province included 11 districts:
| № | County | County town | Area, verst | Population (1897), people |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ardatovsky | Ardatov (3546 people) | 5288,0 | 141 625 |
| 2 | Arzamas | Arzamas (10,592 people) | 3307,1 | 138 785 |
| 3 | Balakhninsky | Balakhna (5120 people) | 3688,6 | 141 694 |
| 4 | Vasilsursky | Vasilsursk (3799 people) | 3365,9 | 127 333 |
| 5 | Gorbatovsky | Gorbatov (4604 people) | 3190,1 | 134 160 |
| 6 | Knyagininsky | Knyaginin (2737 people) | 2595,5 | 106 191 |
| 7 | Lukoyanovsky | Lukoyanov (2117 people) | 5127,5 | 193 454 |
| 8 | Makarievsky | Makaryev (1560 people) | 6568,2 | 108 994 |
| 9 | Nizhny Novgorod | Nizhny Novgorod (90,053 people) | 3208,2 | 222 033 |
| 10 | Semyonovsky | Semenov (3752 people) | 5889,2 | 111 388 |
| 11 | Sergachsky | Sergach (4530 people) | 2808,4 | 159 117 |
After the revolution of 1917, the composition of the Nizhny Novgorod province underwent significant changes.
- 1918 - Gorbatovsky district was renamed Pavlovsky. Voskresensky district was formed.
- 1920 - Makaryevsky district was renamed Lyskovsky.
- 1921 - Balakhninsky district was renamed Gorodetsky. Vyksa, Pochinkovsky and Sormovsky districts were formed.

The Kanavinsky working district was formed.
- 1923 - Ardatovsky, Varnavinsky, Vasilsursky, Voskresensky, Knyaginsky, Kurmyshsky and Pochinkovsky districts were abolished. Krasnobakovsky district was formed.
- 1924 - four volosts were transferred to the Mari Autonomous Region, one volost to the North Dvina province. The Balakhninsky and Rastyapinsky working districts were formed. Sormovsky district was transformed into a working district.

However, in 1717, the Nizhny Novgorod province was abolished, and its lands were again included in the Kazan province. In 1719, the Nizhny Novgorod province was restored as part of 3 provinces (Alatyr, Arzamas, Nizhny Novgorod) and 7 cities. In 1779, under Catherine II, the Novgorod governorate was established, which included the entire territory of the former Nizhny Novgorod province, as well as part of the lands that were previously under the administrative subordination of the provinces of Ryazan, Vladimir, and Kazan.

Economic notes to General Survey Nizhny Novgorod province
In the Nizhny Novgorod province economic notes all counties handwritten
Under Paul the First in 1796, as a result of reorganization, the Nizhny Novgorod governorship began to be called a province. At the same time, the counties of Knyagininsky, Makaryevsky, Perevozsky, Pochinkovsky (the last two were not subsequently restored), and Sergachsky were abolished. In 1797, the Nizhny Novgorod province included lands from the Penza province, abolished at the same time. The last changes in the administrative boundaries of the Nizhny Novgorod province and its composition took place during the reign of Alexander the First (in September 1801), when the lands that previously belonged to the Penza province (Krasnoslobodskaya district), which were restored at that time to their previous borders, were excluded from the province. As part of the Nizhny Novgorod province itself, the districts of Knyagininsky, Makaryevsky, and Sergachsky were simultaneously restored. Throughout the subsequent pre-revolutionary period of the history of the Nizhny Novgorod province, its borders and the composition of the districts did not change.
