Władysław Jagiełło (4 marzo 1386 anni – 1 giug 1434 anni)

Descrizione:

A pagan prince of Lithuania (Jogaiła), he agreed to marry Jadwiga and be baptised in exchange for the Polish crown. Poland and Lithuania became joined by a personal union.

Being a Lithuanian, he often thought of Lithuanian interests first and wasn't very popular as a Polish king. He also had to wait long for a male heir.

To secure the backing of the Polish nobles, Jagiełło had to grant them some priviledges.

As a king, he waged a war against the Teutonic Order and competed for status with the mightiest European houses.
