5 Nov 1915 Jahr - Polish Regency Council Established

Beschreibung:

This council would be made to elect a new king for Poland. However it would come to be known as the "Eternal Regency" as the council has been unable to form a consensus on who exactly should be elected King of Poland. Both Germany and Austria had involved themselves in the debate as whomever was elected could tie Poland to either country's royal house, the Hohenzollerns or the Hapsburgs. With the election postponed multiple times, the Regency Council became bloated and ineffective in carrying out its stated purpose over the course of two decades, which would bring the small Polish nation to the breaking point politically.
