1840 [dated]: Christoph Julius Heinrich Kolberg (surveyor/mapmaker/translator of Polish

Obwodem Wolnego Miasta Krakowa.." (Map of the Kingdom of Poland together with the free
city of Cracow...), Warsaw, in two separate maps: the title map and the one next to it,
"Augustowska" province. In January 1831, the Polish Sejm deposed Nicholas I as King of
Poland in response to his repeated curtailing of its constitutional rights. Nicholas reacted by
sending Russian troops into Poland, resulting in the November Uprising. Following an
11-month military campaign, the Kingdom of Poland lost its semi-independence and was
integrated much more closely with the Russian Empire. This was formalized through the
issuing of the Organic Statute of the Kingdom of Poland by the Emperor in 1832, which
abolished the constitution, army and legislative assembly. Over the next 30 years, a series of
measures bound Congress Poland ever more closely to Russia. In 1863 the January Uprising
broke out but lasted only two years before being crushed. As a direct result, any remaining
separate status of the kingdom was removed and the political entity was directly
incorporated into the Russian Empire. Commentary from wikipedia. Both maps from the National
Library of Poland, via www.mapywig.org
