1289 might have brought some legitimacy to Władysław I from the Piast dynasty who was crowned in 1320 replacing the Přemyslid dynasty.

Casimir III the Great () ( 30 April 1310 – 5 November 1370 ) who reigned in 1333 – 1370, was the last King of Poland from the Piast dynasty, the son of King Władysław I the Elbow-high and Duchess Hedwig of Kalisz.

The region came under the control of Władysław I the Elbow-High in 1314, and thus became part of the reunited Poland of which Władyslaw was crowned king in 1320.

Władysław I the Elbow-high

The Kingdom was restored under Władysław I the Elbow-high, strengthened and expanded by his son Casimir III the Great.

* Hedwig of Kalisz ( 1266 – 1339 ), wife of the King Władysław I the Elbow-high and mother of Casimir III of Poland and Elisabeth of Poland.

When Henry went to Gąsawa in 1227 to meet his Piast cousins, he narrowly saved his life, while High Duke Leszek I the White was killed by the men of the Pomerelian Duke Swietopelk II, instigated by Władysław Odonic.

The next year Henry's ally Władysław III Spindleshanks succeeded Leszek I as High Duke ; however as he was still contested by his nephew in Greater Poland, he made Henry his governor at Kraków, whereby the Silesian duke once again became entangled into the dispute over the Seniorate Province.

Her paternal grandmother Elisabeth of Kujavia was the daughter of King Władysław I the Elbow-high, who had reunited Poland in 1320.

A rival of King Władysław I the Elbow-high to the Polish crown, John supported the Teutonic Knights in the Polish – Teutonic War from 1326 to 1332.

However, not all the Silesian dukes accepted his authority: Dukes Bolko I the Strict, Konrad II the Hunchback and three of the four sons of Władysław of Opole: Casimir of Bytom, Mieszko I of Cieszyn and Przemysław of Racibórz were completely against Henry's politics.

Henry IV's major contenders for the Krakow throne were Leszek II's half-brother Władysław I the Elbow-high and Duke Bolesław II of Płock, who counted on the support of the Lesser Poland nobility.

The battle ended with a victory for the Masovia-Kuyavia coalition ; from two of Henry IV's allies, Duke Przemko of Ścinawa was killed in the battle, and Duke Bolko I of Opole was seriously injured and captured by Władysław I the Elbow-high.

The region came under the control of Władysław I the Elbow-High in 1314, and thus became part of the reunited Poland of which Władyslaw was crowned king in 1320.

** Władysław I the Elbow-high, King of Poland ( d. 1333 )

Władysław III of Varna is known in Hungarian as I. Ulászló ; in Polish as Władysław Warneńczyk ; in Slovak as Vladislav I ; in Czech as Vladislav Varnenčík ; in Bulgarian as Vladislav Varnenchik ( Владислав Варненчик ); in Lithuanian as Vladislovas III ; in Croatian as Vladislav I. Jagelović.

Serving initially in the household of Duke Władysław I Herman of Poland, he entered the service of the Emperor Henry IV in 1090 and was appointed Chancellor of the Holy Roman Empire in 1101.

In 1089, Judith married with Władysław I Herman, Duke of Poland.

He was the only child of Prince Władysław I Herman and his first wife Judith, daughter of Vratislaus II of Bohemia.

In 1086 the coronation of Vratislav II as King of Bohemia, and his alignment with László I, King of Hungary, threatened the position of the Polish ruler, Prince Władysław I Herman.

The situation was further complicated for Władysław I Herman by a lack of a legitimate male heir, as his first-born son Zbigniew came from a union not recognized by the church.

In 1089 Władysław I Herman married Judith of Swabia who was renamed Sophia in order to distinguish herself from Władysław I's first wife.

Shortly after his ascension, however, Władysław I Herman was forced by the barons to give up the de facto reins of government to Count Palatine Sieciech.

Zbigniew took refuge in Silesia, a stronghold of negative sentiment for both Sieciech as well as his nominal patron Władysław I Herman.

The tolerant rule of Władysław I Herman attracted the Jews who were permitted to settle throughout the entire kingdom without restrictions.

There the Rebel forces of Bolesław and Zbigniew defeated Sieciech's army, and Władysław I Herman was obliged to permanently remove Sieciech from the position of Count Palatine.

On the other hand, Władysław I Herman died on 4 June 1102.

Following Prince Władysław I Herman ’ s death the country was divided into two provinces, each administered by one of the late prince ’ s sons.

# Władysław I Herman ( ca.

She was the second daughter of Judith of Swabia and Władysław I Herman.

Bezprym had, however, always been disliked by his father, as indicated by his name ( the Piasts tended to give names such as Bolesław, Mieszko and later Kazimierz, Władysław and emperors ' names, such as Otto, Konrad ( Conrad ), and Henryk ( Heinrich ).

The police however were unable to arrest Dzerzhinsky until the end of 1912, when they found the apartment where he lived, by the name of Władysław Ptasiński.

Władysław, however, bypassed his nobles and informed new Grand Master Ulrich von Jungingen that if the Knights acted to suppress Samogitia, Poland would intervene.

Lack of a legitimate heir, however, remained a concern for Władysław I and in 1085 he and his wife Judith of Bohemia sent rich gifts, among which was a life size statue of a child made of gold, to the Benedictine Sanctuary of Saint Giles in Saint-Gilles, Provance begging for offspring.

Władysław was liked by szlachta ( Polish nobility ), however his father's plans to secure him the throne of Poland ( vivente rege ) were unpopular and eventually crushed in the Zebrzydowski Rebellion ( rokosz ).

This was however unpopular, both with Catholic nobles and the Catholic Church, and when it became clear to Władysław that this would not convince the Swedes to elect him to their throne, this plan, with quiet support from Władysław himself, was dropped.

At this point, however, king Władysław, who up to that point had remained in the background and relinquished full leadership to Hunyadi, assumed command and with his bodyguards carried out an all-out attack on the elite troops of the Sultan, the Janissaries.

At the same time, however, the Red Army was marching into Poland defeating the Nazis and Stalin toughened his stance against the Polish exiled government in London, now demanding not only the recognition of the Curzon Line as the border, but the resignation from the government of all ' elements hostile to the Soviet Union ', which meant in practice president Władysław Raczkiewicz and most of the Polish ministers.

When Władysław succeeded his father, he reinstated the voivode, however the increased power of Włostowic fostered deep negative relations, especially with his wife Agnes of Babenberg, who-not without reason-considered him a traitor.

By 1145 however, it seemed that a reconciliation between the High Duke and Włostowic was possible, as evidenced by the invitation to Władysław by the voivode on the occasion of Włostowic's son wedding.

For unknown reasons however, despite Barbarossa's victory, Władysław II to his great disappointment was not restored in the Polish throne.

The 14th century obituary of Oliwa Abbey denotes the date of his death with 7 February 1207, however Sambor probably died under the reign of High Duke Władysław III Spindleshanks ( 1202 – 1206 ).

Thanks to this Władysław could finally obtain his own independent Duchy, located in Southern Greater Poland ( the Obra River ); however, the prince only assumed the government there as a guardian of his minor nephew Władysław Odonic ( son of Odon, born ca.

Somewhat surprising was the reaction to these events by Henry I the Bearded, who not only accepted the exiles, but also endowed Władysław Odonic with the Duchy of Kalisz, however, with the condition to return to him after he regained his inheritance.

Thanks to this victory, Władysław Odonic was able to take control over almost all Greater Poland ; however, Odonic's ally Swantopolk II unexpectedly broke the existing treaty, took Nakło and proclaimed himself Duke, ended his homage to Leszek I the White.

They had, however, little effect on both Kazanowski and Władysław.

The intention of the two brothers, was the encirclement of Duke Władysław I ; however, he predicted the maneuver and sent back his forces back to Masovia.

At the session of the kapituła ( chapter ), however, the nomination was blocked by General Władysław Anders after Duch adamantly opposed Anders ' own nomination of his paymaster for the Virtuti Militari.

Władysław was, however, faster and gave the Grand Prince several additional political advantages, as a result of which the marriage of Bolesław with the daughter of Grand Prince Vsevolod, Zvenislava took place in 1142.
