The author raises the question of the unification of the Kingdom of Poland at the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries. The main problem discussed in literature was to what degree and if at all the succeeding monarchs managed to unify Polish lands during the years 1295-1320. The author attempts to show that the rule of Wacław II from the Czech Přemyslid dynasty was not a breakthrough in the process of unifying Polish lands. The Czech king concentrated his energy on seizing the Hungarian crown, leaving the Kingdom of Poland on the margins of his political activities. This resulted in maintaining particularisms in Polish society, especially in Great Poland. After the downfall of Czech rule in 1306, duke Władysław the Short was forced to try to rebuild the Kingdom for over a dozen years. Finally he succeeded in 1320. Stabilization of the monarch rule during the times of Władysław and his son Kazimierz the Great was the period of building the foundations of the unity of Piast monarchy.
