		Kazimierz IV Jagiellończyk, (Casimir IV the Jagiellonian) King of Poland 1447-1492, Grand Duke of Lithuania 1440-1492
		Her distant kinsman Frederick III of Austria was Holy Roman Emperor, and reigned Germany even after Casimir's death.
		Casimir, in alliance with the Prussian Confederation, defeated the Teutonic Order taking over its capital in Malbork, which in the ensuing Second Treaty of Torun (October 19, 1466) recognized Polish sovereignty over Royal Prussia and the Polish crown's over lordship over Ducal Prussia.

	Poland History
		Lokietek's son, Casimir III, was born in 1310 and was the only Polish king distinguished as "Great." His reign laid the foundation for future Polish grandeur.
		Casimir was a king of all the people, called "King of the Peasants" for his attempt to secure the authority of royal courts over aristocratic abuses and to codify Polish law.
		Unfortunately, the Jagiellonians failed to elaborate a coherent political rationale for organizing the lands between Russia and Germany into a loose federation, in order to prevent their falling under the domain of one of these powers.

	Informat.io on History Of The Jews In Poland
		The decline in the status of the Jews was briefly checked by Casimir IV the Jagiellonian (1447–1492), but to increase his power he soon issued the Statute of Nieszawa[2].
		Conflicts and disputes, however, became of frequent occurrence, and led to the convocation of periodical rabbinical congresses, which were the nucleus of the central institution known in Poland, from the middle of the sixteenth to the middle of the eighteenth century, as the Council of Four Lands.
		Under Sigismund III Vasa (1587–1632) and his son, Wladislaus IV Vasa (1632–1648), the position of the Jews was gradually reduced as blood libel accusations increased.
