Casimir III

Poland, agitated for a long time by the Teutonic knights, respired under Casimir III.

On the extinction of his line in 1340 Casimir III. of Poland incorporated Galicia and Lemberg; on Casimir’s death in 1370 Louis the Great of Hungary, in accordance with previous treaties, became king of Poland, Galicia and Lodomeria; and in 1382, by the marriage of Louis’s daughter with Ladislaus II.,

His descendants are said to have been kings in Poland till the time of Casimir III.; and so late as 1675 were princes in Silesia.
