Vitebsk
Vitebsk was a Ruthenian principality centred on the town of Vitebsk. After Prince Jaroslav died without male heirs in 1320, his daughter Maria's marriage to Algirdas brought it to Lithuania; in 1337 Algirdas ruled Vitebsk.
Algirdas became Grand Duke of Lithuania in 1345. The principality retained its own administration until 1393, when it became a Lithuanian viceroyalty; in 1508 its lands joined Orsha, Drutsk and Mogilev in the Vitebsk Voivodeship.
