In the Shadows of Poland and Russia~The Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Sweden in the European Crisis of the mid-17th Century
This book examines and analyses the Union between the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Sweden signed in 1655 at K?dainiai and the political crisis that followed. The union was a result of strong separatist dreams among the Lithuanian-Ruthenian Protestant elite led by the Radziwi?? family, and if implemented it would radically change the balance of power in the Baltic Sea region. The main legal point of the Union was the breach of Lithuanian federation with Poland and the establishment of a federation with Sweden.
In 2003, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, comprised of the two republics that had chosen to remain within the Yugoslav Federation, was renamed Serbia and Montenegro.
