Abstract

The Golden Horde ruler regarded the military action of Casimir III as violating his political interests and sent his army against the Polish monarch. Thus, the first attempt to take possession of the Halychian land was unsuccessful and Casimir III was able to begin re-conquest only nine years later. This time, at the end of a four-year conflict with Lithuanian princes, Halychyna became part of the Kingdom of Poland. Moreover, Daniil Romanovich even allowed himself to enter into open conflict with Batu’s nephew, Qurumshi, when the latter tried to occupy the southern regions of the Halychian land centred in the town of Bakota in 1252. In addition, the Swiss Franciscan added to the description of large-scale battles the equally implausible mention of the Mongol invasion of the Margraviate of Brandenburg. In particular, according to the Sochaczew Notes, in the spring of 1350, the Lithuanians invaded Masovia, but they were defeated by Polish troops near the Sochaczew castle on 20 May.
