What would be the most likely (and useful) location for a hereditary Duchy that could ensure election of a dynasty and how would this alter the country’s growth? Would this lead to more dynastic struggles or a more stable Commonwealth? The POD should be after the Union of Lublin as before then the hereditary Jagiellon kings of Lithuania were mostly guaranteed to be elected.
I’m thinking that either Mazovia or Prussia is most likely as one is centrally located within Poland and the the Prussian lands were desired by Polish kings for centuries. Maybe a more successful Great Northern War for the Poland-Russian-Danish alliance could allow for a hereditary Wettin state in Livonia.
