In 1708 , an Administrative Reform was carried out by Peter The Great , dividing Russia into Governorates . The subdivision into uyezds was abolished at that time and was only reinstated in 1727 , as a result of Catherine I 's Administrative Reform . By the Soviet administrative reform of 1923 – 1929 , uyezds were transformed into Raion s (districts). RELATED ARTICLE |
