1244 CE

The Teutonic Knights manage to gather a coalition against Swietopolk: Dukes of Masovia are given territories in Prussia, Dukes of Greater Poland receive Nakel, and Dukes of Pomerellia, brothers of Swietopolk, hope to regain their inheritance.

Swietopolk builds a castle at Zantyr, where Nogat separated from the Vistula, and launched a blockade of Elbing and Balga.

While the castle withstands Teutonic attacks, the blockade is smashed by cogs.
