Schubin district
The Schubin district existed from 1818 to 1920 in the administrative district of Bromberg in the Prussian province of Posen . The seat of the district administration was the city of Schubin . The district was in the north of the province of Poznan, southwest of Bydgoszcz and belongs to the Polish powiats Pilski and Żniński in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship .
history
With the first partition of Poland in 1772, the area around the town of Schubin came to Prussia . It initially belonged to the districts of Bromberg and Kamin in the Netzedistrikt , which had belonged to the province of West Prussia since 1775 . Through the Peace of Tilsit between Napoleon's France , Prussia and Russia , the area came to the newly established Duchy of Warsaw . According to the agreements of the Congress of Vienna , the Kingdom of Prussia received the entire former network district back on May 15, 1815. The area around Schubin was part of the Bydgoszcz administrative district of the Posen province . As part of a district reform in the district of Bromberg, the new district of Schubin was formed on January 1, 1818 from parts of the districts of Bromberg, Inowrazlaw , Wirsitz and Wongrowitz . In detail, the towns of Bartschin , Exin , Gonsawa , Labischin , Rynarschewo, Schubin and Znin , the Znin domain office and a large number of noble estates were added to the Schubin district . The town of Schubin became the seat of the district administration .
As part of the Posen Province , the Schubin district also became part of the newly founded German Empire on January 18, 1871 , against which the Polish MPs protested in the new Reichstag on April 1, 1871.
During the Poznan district reform of October 1, 1887, the southern part of the Schubin district with the towns of Gonsawa and Znin was separated and became part of the new Znin district .
On December 27, 1918, the Wielkopolska uprising of the Polish majority against German rule began in the province of Posen , and apart from a narrow northern strip along the nets , the district came under Polish control within a few days. On February 16, 1919, an armistice ended the Polish-German fighting, and on June 28, 1919, the German government officially ceded the Schubin district to the newly founded Poland with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles . On November 25, 1919, Germany and Poland concluded an agreement on the evacuation and surrender of the areas to be ceded, which was ratified on January 10, 1920. The evacuation of the remaining area under German control along the nets with the handover to Poland took place between January 17 and February 4, 1920.

elections
In the German Empire, the Schubin district belonged together with the Wirsitz district to the Bromberg 2 Reichstag constituency within the boundaries of 1871 . Due to the ethnic composition of the electorate, the constituency was contested between German and Polish candidates in all Reichstag elections. The respective winners always only prevailed with narrow majorities.
Municipal structure
The Schubin district had seven cities until 1887, the rural communities and manor districts were combined in six police districts. After the reduction of the district area, the district was divided into five cities and five police districts.
