title: Из истории государственного строительства в Крыму: таврическая губерния в свои первые десятилетия
abstract: In the present historical circumstances, an analysis of both territorial governance of the Crimea within the Empire and the first governors’ activities to manage Tauride Governorate seems quite topical. Based on the archival data, I have considered the creation of Taurida Governorate, its administrative structure and features of government in the article. I have analyzed the process of region integrating in the all-Russian state structure, as well as the role of first governors in this process.
