I remind new
Holland = 10 province
England = 14 province
Scotland = 5 province
France = 36 province

According to this map

Poland = 10 province + 2 province (Teutonic 1465) + 1 Mazowsze(1525)
Lithuania = 17 province + 2 province (Teutonic 1560)

it is this historical partition
and it is this maximum size of these countries

I think Smolensk must be split into Smolensk and Bryansk, as here it looks really too big… Also, I see no reason why Lithuanian and Belarusian provinces should be named in polish transcription (Navagradak/Naugardukas or Vilnia/Vilnius (Bel/Lit))...

Yes Smolensk should be split. Provinces should have Polish translation because a few of this provinces be Polish for above 300 years and in historical sources (even non Polish) for this time Polish translation is dominant.

As far as I know until 1696 the official state language of the Grand Duchy was old Ruthenian (named now sometimes old Belarusian, which is not correct). The map sources of 15-18 centuries are mostly in Latin. So?

And I personally do not remember when the lands of the Grand Duchy were under Polish suzerainty. At last the Polish-Lithuanian personal unions or the confederative Commonwealth do not prove this. I even do not speak about the ethnic side of the question.

Official, official, practic counts. Lithuanians spoke in Polish Language, almost all central europe spoke in this language, even Russian high nobility spoke in Polish language until XVII/XVIII century.

And Unions... Lithuanians de facto polonized themselves, they were different from Poles, but no a different nation, something like Ethnic group in Polish Nation. Lithuanians after I World War had to start create culture from almost nothing. Nobody spoke Lithuanian except small part of peasantry, and almost all buildings, traditions and art was Polish. It was hard to find something strictly Lithuanian:)

I advice you to adress to the work of Henrik Wisner or other academic Polish historians working at the “Lithuanian” field, instead of the Polish 1920-1930s propaganda. :) Without offensive, really. ;)

No it is not propaganda, but truth. Henrik Wisner... O gosh... You must be kidding:)
 
To aboid this quarrel bout names and languages it has been ruled and accepted that all names are to be present day english. Take a lokk at finland. Was definatly ruled by sweden the entire period and most cities founded and inhabited by swedes and yet I have heard no swede complaining about the names being on finnish and it should. Every city and county has several names and if we dont one language for all this will become a reason for quarrel among us. Bet the belo russians the lithuanians and the poles all have a different names and good reasons for theirs being the right ones.

CAnt we just agree the english will be the only one. And thereby let Åbo be called Turko..... (yiek sounds really wrong)
 
Stupid, pointless arguments like this are the reason why all names are written in English. So we don't have to wade through a million different posts as to why their nationalist BS is the way and the truth and everyone else's nationalst BS is the greatest heresy ever to defile humanity.

All names are in English in AGCEEP.

Good point. So how you will name 24-26 provinces in English? :) it’s still no constant spelling of these historical provinces in English as far as I know. And that’s a problem from what language to make such transcriptions to English. :)

Quite easy take a look in britannica or a english atlas. Those are the nam,es we will use wether or not the origin in this or that language. As stated in my example above Turko is the present day english name for the finnish city in the west. This name of course comes from the finnish language and not the english or the swedish but since its the name used in english then it will be the name we use

Yes, i know - it is a problem with rivers. But in a some polish voivodships (wojewodztwa) like Masovia (with Warsaw) or Lesser Poland (with Cracow) the river goes through the centre of province.

You want to partition this prowince for 2 parts? - litlle strange results...
You want to merge parts of diffrent provinces? Terrible...
You want to change the rivers route? The bad idea...
;)

That's an awful lot of provinces.

really it's not. If it goes to Poland, Baltic region and Western Lithuania - there are rather rich and populated regions. So, I see no reason why this region cannot be represented historically.

The other problem is indeed rivers :)
