On 1282, Traidenis would be replaced by the youngest son of Boleslaw Rogatka who is the son Anna of Lithuania, he would style himself as Traidenis II, his sister, Sophia would marry Wladyslaw of Kuyavia, Sophia have accompanied her mother to Silesia prior to her marrying her husband, Anna of Lithuania was not a person who is unexperienced in men since she had married Shvarn of Galicia as her husband for a few months in 1255 until he succumbed to disease.
Traidenis II would fight against the Teutonic Knights in Lithuania despite his own known Christian background and would succeed against the Teutons in Lithuania and allied with Pskov.
On 1290 on the death of Henry of Silesia, the duke of Krakow, Wenceslaus II would claim the throne of Krakow, while Jadwiga of Greater Poland would marry Traidenis II of Lithuania, Henry Probus would will Krakow and Wroclaw to Traidenis II or Konrad of Wroclaw.

A Song for Song
A Song for Song
On 1277, Kublai Khan would meet an accident falling in a horse causing the Mongols to retreat from the Song Empire.
This was said to be a lucky event for the Song Dynasty in general, since the Song Empire would have a chance to improve their military against the mongols, now under the regents of Emperor Zhao Shi and they would be able to repel the mongols for a decade until the mongols would start to decline.

The fact that the Mongols were not able to conquer that means the Song Empire would recover.

Meanwhile, Islam would reach the islands in the other side of Hainan and Annam particularly, Sanfotsi and the lands of the Pisheya.
 
Why would Bolesław Rogatka marry Lithuanian princess? He was Silesian Duke, his lands had no connection with neither Teutonic Order State nor with Lithuania, and his main problem was his younger brother Henryk Biały, with whom he fought over their father's inheritance. Lithuanians were neither possible allies nor se threat to him to justify such marriage. IOTL only Mazovian-Cuiavian Piasts intermarried with Lithuanian dynasties.

Such a person did not exist.

Mindaugas only had one unnamed daughter, wife of Shvarn.


This TL is of the same vein as Kingdom of Poland in Silesia I did earlier..this is not ASB just implausible.
 
Yes, I killed him off and forgot to mention it..
Then Traidenis would not be the Grand Duke of Lithuania, because he only came to power after the defeat of the Orthodox Shvarn-Vaišvilkas-Vasilka trio, Vaišvilkas's resignation and Shvarn's death. Without Shvarn, Vaišvilkas either does not have the power to claim the Lithuanian throne from Treniota or, if he does, he does not resign to a monastery.
