Treaty In Polanowo




The peace treaty confirmed the Pre-war Status Quo , with Muscovy paying a large War Indemnity (20,000 Rubles in Gold ), while Wladislaus IV agreed to surrender his claim to the Muscovite throne and return the Royal Insignia to Muscovy.

The treaty ended the almost unbroken series of wars between the Commonwealth waged and its neighbours that took place since the start of the 17th Century . The 14 years of peace that followed were arguably the most prosperous in Commonwealth's history.
