Boleslaw II Piast, known variously as the Generous, the Bold or the Cruel. Founded many churches and monasteries and established royal mints in Kraków and Wroclaw. Poland enjoys an easy starting position with plenty of opportunities for expansion against the Baltic pagans.

Duchess Matilda I controlled the duchies of Toscana and Spoleto and was a strong supporter of Pope VII in his conflicts against Emperor Henry IV.
