  West Prussia
As the western part of the possessions of the Teutonic Knights it was ceded to Poland in 1466, where it remained until it was made a part of rapidly expanding Prussia in 1772.
Their "defenselessness" was exploited, and enormous sums of money were extracted from them, until finally King Wladislaus IV granted them a "privilegium" or charter in 1642, which promised them a large measure of toleration as well as protection and a guarantee of their old privileges for all time.
The first partition of Poland in 1772, by which West Prussia became a part of the Kingdom of Prussia, meant at first an advantage for the Mennonites, since Frederick the Great had a high regard for superior farmers.

 Władysław IV Vasa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Muscovite army (of approximately 34,500) crossed the Commonwealth eastern frontier in October 1632 and laid siege to Smolensk (which was ceded to Poland by Russia in 1618, at the end of the Dymitriad wars).
In the war against Russia in 1632-1634 (the Smolensk War), Wladyslaw succeeded in breaking the siege in September 1633 and then in turn surrounded the Russian army, which was then forced to surrender on March 1, 1634.
Many historians argue that Wladislaus was very ambitious and dreamed of achieving great fame through conquests, and in the latter years he planned to use the Cossacks to provoke the Turks into attacking Poland so that his military leadership would be indispensable.

 Welcome to the Vilna Site
The conclusion to be drawn, therefore, from the study of the history of the Jews of Wilna during that period is that the kings and rulers of Poland and Lithuania were considerate toward them, but that the non-Jewish population was extremely hostile.
Wilna remained in the hands of the Russians for about six years, when it again came under the rule of the kings of Poland; the lot of the Jews, however, remained as bad as ever.The vernacular of the Jews of Wilna at that time seems to have been Russian.
The Lithuanian prince Jogaila (at this point also the King of Poland) needed the assistance of certain Jews who were very well-off and knowledgeable in particular fields; in return for their assistance he bestowed upon them rights to manage the mint in Vilna and collect taxes.

 Talk:Ladislaus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
And for using different versions for rulers of Hungary and Poland, some of the Ladislauses were rulers of more than one of those three (Poland, Bohemia, Hungary) countries, so there has to be a common naming convention for all of these.
There is a theory that the name was originally loaned from ancient non-Slavic Bolgar language in Ukraine and taken later to Poland and Hungary.
It wouldn't be unreasonable to expect it to be borrowed to Poland via Ukraine, because there were many loanwords in Eastern Slavonic from OCS due to liturgical use of the latter in orthodox church - but in fact, both Polish and German verisons you cited don't mention Ukraine, but Hungary.
