Kashubia in Royal Prussia & The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth

Following the 1466 Peace of Thorn, Gdańsk Pomerania enjoyed centuries of political autonomy and economic growth as Royal Prussia within the Kingdom of Poland.

Autonomy and Loyalty to the Commonwealth

Prusy Królewskie zachowały własne prawa, odrębny skarb oraz reprezentację stanową. Szlachta kaszubska i mieszczaństwo wiernie wspierały królów polskich w zmaganiach ze Szwedami i podczas wojen bałtyckich.
