Here's a good place to start: ╚Изменение
административно-территориального деления России за последние 300 лет╩.
С.А.ТАРХОВ. ("Izmeneniye administrativno-territorial'nogo deleniya
Rossii za posledniye 300 let." S. A. Tarkhov)
The editors of Geografiya apparently don't believe in linking the
author's pages to one another, so here's the secret: The material begins
in issue 15 at <http://geo.1september.ru/2001/15/contents15.htm>, and
then continues in issue 21 at
<http://geo.1september.ru/2001/15/contents15.htm>.
Should give you way more than enough ideas and search terms to move
forward.
