    Notes:

    Boleslav "The Brave" was one of the first rulers of the Piast dynasty. He made
    Poland an independent kingdom, and was crowned its first king in 1025.

    Boleslav I, called The Brave or The Mighty (circa 966-1025), first king of
    Poland. In 992 he succeeded his father Mieszko (circa 922-992) as prince of
    Poland and embarked on a vigorous program of expansion, beginning by declaring
    his country's independence of the Holy Roman Empire. In the west he conquered
    Lusatia and Meissen, and in 1003 he forced Bohemia to acknowledge him as its
    prince. Later losing these territories to the German king Henry II, he finally
    regained them by the Treaty of Bautzen (1018). In the same year, he invaded the
    Russian state of Kyyiv, giving its throne to his son-in-law Svyatopolk (reigned
    1015, 1018-19). Boleslav continued his father's support of Christianity and
    made the Polish church independent under the papacy, establishing Gniezno as an
    archbishopric. Crowned king in the year of his death, he left Poland one of the
    strongest states in Europe.
