I think you`ve messed up something. The Polish Kings ruled over Prussia for over 200 years.

See:

that guy on his knees in front of the Polish King Zygmunt I - that`s Albert Hohentzollern - the duke of Prussia.

LOL - you`ll just have to check your coat of arms on your website to know who`s your master

The same Albert Hohentzollern painted by Bacciarelli

I guess that guy just loved spending time on his knees.

Well I think that everyone who`s interested in Polish history has knows everything about the Prussian Homage. What I find interesting though is something that I found out only some time ago while browsing thru the Wikipedia. It seems that Konigsberg before 1700 had had a Polish coat of arms

Well, I had no idea about that. I wonder also if the Germans hated the Poles becaouse of all of that kneeing their monarh had to endure during the XVI and XVII centuries, after all it was under the Hohentzollerns when the Germans got their idea about their "superiority", "Kulturkampf" ect. A Hohentzollern also rulled Germany when WWI had started...

Merged: Does Poland have King or Queen?

Ok you might think im stupid here but i was laying in bed thinking, does Poland have a King or Queen as such like the UK, and what roles do they play. Or like most is it al about politics.

Stanislaw August Poniatowski was the last King (1764-1795) of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. :)
