After the Congress of Vienna Vincke became Supreme President of the Province of Westphalia, one of the new founded Western Provinces of the reorganized Kingdom of Prussia. Vincke modernized the provincial administration, supported agricultural reforms, industrial development and enlargement of traffic ways, and fostered the coexistence of the diverse Christian confessions in the multiconfessional province. He supported the idea of public self-government on local and regional level, but the restorative tendencies in the governmental policy laid down limits for his efforts. Provided by Wikipedia
