Wierland County (German: Kreis Wierland or Wierlandische Kreis, Estonian: Viru kreis, Russian: Vezenbergsky uyezd, Russian: Везенбергскій/Вирляндскій уѣздъ, romanized: Vesenbergskiy/Virlyandskiy uyezd) was one of the four counties of the Russian Empire located in the Governorate of Estonia.[1] It was situated in the eastern part of the governorate (in present-day northeastern Estonia). Its capital was Rakvere (Wesenberg). The territory of Wierland County corresponds to most parts of present-day Ida-Viru and Lääne-Viru counties and a small part of Jõgeva County.[2]
