Dear Polish Culture Fans,

For those who are interested in history of Poland, I prepared an article about its legendary and historical ruler, Mieszko I. There are many things that one may say (or know) about this ruler. However, the most important and known fact is that Mieszko I brought Christianity to Poland. I hope you will all find the article interesting!

Mieszko I, the founder of Poland
The first ruler of newly formed Poland has never got the title of a king. As a prince he managed, however, to strengthen united tribes. He is also the monarch who brought Christianity to the nation, introducing at the same time Latin culture.
