Dawn of Man

Noble Stephen Bathory, Prince of Transylvania and jure uxoris King of Poland. The Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth was a dualistic state of Poland and Lithuania ruled by a common king of Poland. It was one of the largest and one of the most populous countries of 16th- and 17th-century Europe, established at the Union of Lublin in July 1569. The Union possessed features unique among contemporary states. Its political system was characterized by strict checks upon monarchical power. These checks were enacted by a legislature controlled by the nobility . This idiosyncratic system was a precursor to modern concepts of democracy, constitutional monarchy, and federation. After several centuries of prosperity, it entered a period of protracted political, military and economic decline. Its growing weakness led to its partitioning among its neighbors, Austria, Prussia and the Russian Empire, during the late 18th century. Shortly before its demise, the Commonwealth adopted a massive reform effort and enacted the Constitution, the first codified constitution in modern European history.

Your mayesty! Weak neighbours tremble in fear before the power of your army. Will you rule them with an iron hand or bring liberty and equality to oppressed nations? Can you build a civilization that will stand test of time?
