Subcarpathian Regional Assembly in the context of Podkarpackie Voivodeship

Podkarpackie Voivodeship (Polish pronunciation: [pɔt.karˈpat͡s.kjɛ]; lit.'Subcarpathian') is a voivodeship, or province, in the southeastern corner of Poland. Its administrative capital and largest city is Rzeszów. It is governed by the Subcarpathian Regional Assembly and the voivodeship marshal.

The name derives from the region's location near the Carpathian Mountains, and the voivodeship comprises areas of two historic regions of Central Europe—Lesser Poland (western and northwestern counties) and Cherven Cities/Red Ruthenia.
