…Meissen in 1002.
In refusing to pay the tribute to the Empire from the conquered territories, Boleslaw claims a hereditary right to Meissen as a relative of its former ruler Margrave Rikdag (only through marriage; he is the former husband of his daughter).
Henry II has accepted Boleslaw's gains and allowed the Polish Duke to keep Lusatia as a fief.
The one exception is Meissen, which Boleslaw has not been not allowed to keep.
At this point Polish–German relations are normalized, although soon thereafter Henry II organizse a failed assassination attempt on Boleslaw's life and relations between the two countries are severed.
