Janina Vilayet

Years: 1867 - 1913

The Vilayet of Janina, Yanya or Ioannina, is a first-level administrative division (vilayet) of the Ottoman Empire, established in 1867.

In the late nineteenth century it reportedly has an area of 18,320 square miles (47,400 km2).

It was created by merging the Pashalik of Yanina and the Pashalik of Berat with the sanjaks of Janina, Berat, Ergiri, Preveze, Tırhala and Kesriye.

Kesriye is later demoted to kaza and bound to Monastir Vilayet and Tırhala is given to Greece in 1881.
