Medieval Poland
The Polish people were ruled
by the Piast dynasty. This dynasty had close ties to the Holy Roman Empire &
introduced
Christianity to the Polish. Poland was a strong & powerful kingdom. The Piast dynasty held
power
for several centuries, ending in 1370. With the death of the Piast dynasty, Poland was
ruled by the Anjou
king of Hungary. His daughter, Jadwiga, succeeded to the throne & married
the grand duke of Lithuania in 1386. This marriage
established the Commonwealth of
Poland-Lithuania.
