TheVilayet of Trebizond (Ottoman Turkish:ولايت طربزون,romanized: Vilâyet-i Ṭrabzōn;French:Vilayet de Trébizonde) was a first-level administrative division (vilayet) in the north-eastern part of theOttoman Empire, corresponding to the area along the easternBlack Sea coastline and the interior highland region of thePontic Alps.[1]

At the beginning of the20th century, it reportedly had an area of 12,082 square miles (31,290 km2), while the preliminary results of the first Ottoman census of 1885 (published in 1908) gave the population as 1,047,700.[3] The accuracy of the population figures ranges from "approximate" to "merely conjectural" depending on the region from which they were gathered.[3]

After theRussian-Turkish War of 1877–1878, the sanjak of Lazistan was established.[4]Rize became the center of the district due to the cession ofBatumi, the former centre of the sanjak, toRussia with kaza ofArtvin. Thesalname of the year 1344h/1904-1905 mentioned severalArmenian pharmacists.[5] The Vilayet also counted with a considerablePontic Greek population.[6]

DuringWorld War I eastern half of vilayet (Kazas of Görele, Vakfıkebir, Akçaabat, Trabzon, Of and Maçka with sanjaks of Lazistan and Gümüşhane) was occupied byRussian troops by summer 1916. It was retaken by Ottomans in 1918.
