Abstract

The existence of the union implies the possibility of its future dissolution. The creation of a union implies the premise of stable borders between the entities they unite. Accordingly, the dissolution of one personal union may be the result simply of creation of another union. The Hungaro-Polish union under Louis the Great of Anjou was soon replaced by the Polish-Lithuanian union. Unions may extend over quite a homogenous geographical zone of similar climate, which may explain both the long-lasting success of the Polish-Lithuanian union and also its permanent endangerment from the western and eastern neighbours within the same geographic zone. The efficiency of rule over the entire union could be demonstrated by the issuing of “border-crossing” charters, granted in a place in one entity of union in favour of a recipient in another, as demonstrated by the graphic illustration provided at the conference in the library of Vilnius Castle on the links between the Angevin territories in France and England.
