Morphology
provincially = provincial (transparent) = province + ial + ly
Formation from the adjective 'provincial' with the regular adverbial suffix '-ly' yields a predictable adverbial meaning.
Etymology
Provincially comes from the word province, which itself comes from Latin provincia meaning 'an area or a duty given to a leader'. So, when something is done provincially, it is done by a province or region rather than by the whole country.
