Greater Poland Uprising (1846) Totally Explained

Everything about Greater Poland Uprising 1846 totally explained

The 1846 Wielkopolska Uprising was a planned military insurrection by Poles in the land of Greater Poland against the occupying Prussian forces, designed to be part of a general Polish uprising in all three partitions of Poland, against the Russians, Austrians and Prussians. Because the other insurrections failed and the leaders of the Wielkopolska underground organization were arrested by Prussian authorities, no serious hostilities occurred that year except for minor fighting in Poznań and Górczyn.
