Congress Poland: All Data
This page is about the data available for this polity, the chronology of the events of the polity is available here.
Was a polity created in 1815 by the Congress of Vienna as a semi-autonomous Polish state, a successor to Napoleon's Duchy of Warsaw. De facto, it was little more than a puppet state in a personal union with the Russian Empire. The autonomy was severely curtailed following uprisings in 1830-31 as the country became governed by viceroys, and later divided into governorates. Due to this limited autonomy we consider Congress Poland as part of Russia from 1832.
