Dukes of Greater Poland

According to the statute, constitution or last will of the Polish duke Boleslaus III the Wrymouth Poland was divided into the 4-5 hereditary provinces distributed among his sons, and a royal province of Cracow for the eldest to be the high-duke of all Poland.

One of these provinces, Greater Poland was given to the Mieszko III the Old the third oldest son of Boleslaus, and subsequenly divided among his descendants and successors, until they died out in 1296. After a short period of rule by the dukes from various branches of Piast dynasty and the kings of Bohemia, the province fell to Ladislaus the Short (crowned king 1320) and turned into the Poznan Voivodship and Kalisz Voivodship of the united Kingdom of Poland.
