Poland
Index
The Jagiellons never recovered their hegemony over
Central
Europe, and the ascendancy of the Ottomans foreshadowed
the
eventual subjection of the entire region to foreign rule;
but the
half century that followed the Battle of Mohács marked an
era of
stability, affluence, and cultural advancement unmatched
in
national history and widely regarded by Poles as their
country's
golden age.
Data as of October 1992
