1. About the names of the provinces: in 1177 three sons of Wladyslaw II, duke of Slask (Silesia) and Poland, received sovereign duchies - Glogowskie, Wroclawskie and Raciborskie. So I suggest changing the names of three provinces: Lower Silesia (Dolny Slask) to Glogowskie, Upper Silesia (Gorny Slask) to Wroclawskie and Cieszynskie to Raciborskie. Admittedly Wroclaw is situated in Dolny Slask (so as Glogow) and Gorny Slask is absolutely other region of Poland, but Wroclaw lies more on east than Glogow, but more on northwest than Cieszyn, which after 1177 was merged into duchy of Raciborskie, part of Slask (Silesia). I also suggest changing the german name Danzig to polish Gdansk. But it isn't most important at the moment.
2. Poland absolutely shouldn't be a kingdom, Poland should be a vassal of Germany, although it will causes many problems with all duchies, which should be changed into counties with one liege...
3. Partition of country:
a)
Kingdom of Poland =>
Kazimierz II the Just Piast: Chelminskie (369), Krakowskie (capital, 527), Sandomierskie (531) Sacz (532), Czersk (530); titles: king of Poland, duke of Mazowsze. Vassals:
-
county of Kujawy (Kujawskie) => Bolesław: Kujawy (428)
-
county of Gdansk (Danzig) => Sambor Subisławowic: Gdansk (368)
-
archbishopric (solution likewise in 1066B) of Krakowskie => Gedko Gryfita (date of birth unknown, but ca. 1130 would be alright, I believe): Sieradzko-Leczyckie (528)
-
bishopric of Plock => Wit z Chotela (date of birth unknown, but dead in 1206 - I don't believe he lived longer than 60 years): Płock (529)
b)
Duchy of Slask (Silesia) => Boleslaw the Tall Piast: Upper Silesia (Wroclawskie, 435)
- county of Glogowskie => Konrad Piast: Lower Silesia (Glogowskie, 434)
- county of Raciborskie (Cieszynskie) => Mieszko the Tandleleg: Cieszynskie (Raciborskie, 526)
c)
Duchy of Wielkopolska => Mieszko III the Old Piast: Gnieznienskie (429), Kaliskie (capital, 432)
- county of Poznanskie => Odon: Lubusz (430), Poznań (capital, 431).
