1000 Years Since the Founding of the Kingdom of Poland
1000 years ago, in april 1025, Bolesław I the Brave was crowned the first King of Poland, marking the official beginning of the Polish Kingdom. Over the centuries, it grew into a significant European power, especially during the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth era. Though the monarchy no longer exists, this year marks a full millennium since Poland became a kingdom.

Bił on słupy w Dnieprze, sali na państwa granicy, w stalnych zbrojach za nim stali dzielni wojownicy, dla złych był on jak bicz Boży, a dla dobrych dobry, a potomne pokolenia nazwały go Chrobry.

I always feel sadnes when I think about Poland’s past time and again her land was partitioned by stronger neighbors. I have enormous admiration for the Polish people, and a huge congrats on a thousand years of your history.
There’s a story we often share in Turkey: back in 1795, when the Third Partition erased Poland from the map, the Ottomans simply refused to go along. Every Friday at the imperial Divan someone would ask, “So; where’s the Ambassador of Lehistan?” (Commonwealth in Turkish) And the reply was always, “He’s not here yet, but he’s on his way.” That little ritual carried on until Poland came back in 1918. A small gesture, maybe, but it was wholesome for its times.

I wonder if things would’ve gone differently is Boleslaw the bold or Wladyslaw the exile hadn’t been overthrown
