Abstract
In the Russian Empire in the second half of the 19th century the development of territories (internal colonization) took place in the course of spontaneous relocations in search of free land. The reason was the scarcity of land in the central regions. The government tried to put this process under its control. One such attempt was the establishment of the Resettlement Office in August 1881. Nevertheless, the activities of the Resettlement Office demonstrated the urgency of one of the key issues of the empire's domestic policy and the need to resolve it.
