		The land is mostly flat, drained by two major watershed systems; the Noteć (German: Netze) in the north and the Warta (German: Warthe) in the center.
		After the fall of Napoleon in 1815 according to the Vienna peace congress, Great Poland returned to Prussia, and became the Grand Duchy of Posen (1815-1846), an autonomous province (in principle) under Hohenzollern rule with the rights of "free development of Polish nation, culture and language", and outside the German Confederation.
		However, shortly after the outbreak of the November Uprising Prussia ceased pretending the state was autonomous, despite the Vienna peace congress arrangements and in 1846 the province was renamed as the Province of Posen and brought to the same standing as West Prussia, Silesia and the other provinces.
