Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?

Province is feminine in Italian because it derives from the Latin feminine noun *provincia*, which originally referred to a sphere of responsibility or domain assigned to a Roman magistrate, and Latin grammatical gender was preserved through the Romance languages. The Latin term itself likely stems from *pro-* (before/in front of) and *vincere* (to conquer), though the exact semantic evolution remains debated by etymologists.
