Estonian Provincial Government
The Estonian Provincial Government (Estonian: Eesti Ajutine Maavalitsus) was the provincial government of the Autonomous Governorate of Estonia, still under the formal sovereignty of the post-tsarist Russia.[1] It was the executive body of the Estonian Provincial Assembly. The provincial government was in office from 2 August 1917 to 24 February 1918, when it was succeeded by the Provisional Government of the newly proclaimed Republic of Estonia. The provincial government was headed by Jaan Raamot (2 August to 25 October 1917) and Konstantin Päts (25 October 1917 – 24 February 1918).[2]
