List of Galician rulers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a list of rulers of Galicia from the times of its recreation after the Partitions of Poland until the Polish-Ukrainian War. Between September of 1772 and the fall of Austria-Hungary in 1918, the province was directly subordinate to the KuK monarchs of Austria and the government in Vienna (and then a local Galician Sejm in Lwów), hence the list includes governors, ministers and other people in charge of the local administration.
