1772 CE

To Austria falls Zator and Auschwitz (Oświęcim), part of Little Poland embracing parts of the counties of Kraków and Sandomir and the whole of Galicia, less the City of Kraków.

Austrian diplomat Wenzel Anton, Prince of Kaunitz-Rietberg, is proud of wresting as large a share as he has, with the rich salt mines of Bochnia and Wieliczka, despite token criticism of the partition from Austrian Empress Maria Theresa.
