	The Heritage of the 13th Century
		From his residence in Wroclaw (Breslau), he exercised a strong influence over all of Poland, especially in Greater Poland, where the descendants of Mieszko the Old were quarreling among themselves.
		These divisions went particularly far in Silesia, both in the main western part, where the branch of the two Henrys did not produce any prominent ruler for half a century, and in Upper Silesia, where the process of German colonization was much slower but the local princes equally insignificant.
		The situation in Greater Poland improved under two brothers, great-grandsons of Mieszko the Old, who cooperated against the aggressive policy of the margraves of Brandenburg, not without suffering minor territorial losses.
