| Description | The author shows that incorporation of the Silesian Odra valley into the region dominated by the Czech king John of Luxembourg at the end of the 1320s had deep roots stretching back to at least 1250s. That was the time when the Czech kings Wenceslas I, Přemysl Otakar II and Wenceslas II were able to dominate the region through proclaiming protection of the Silesian princes from external enemies (including the Mongols) and by using the feudal system, by which Wenceslas II bound the Upper-Silesian Piasts. |
