- Administrative/biographical history:
- The Delegazione provinciale and Congregazione provinciale were peripheral administrative corporate bodies of the Regno Lombardo-Veneto (Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia, 1815-1866). The Delegazione Provinciale (Provincial District) was in charge of political-administrative duties, directly dependent on the central government in Milan (capital of the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia), while the Congregazione provinciale (Provincial Congregation) was in charge of several tasks including tax collection, supervision of bridges and water, and military duties.
