Modern Livonia was founded in 1920 by Polish General Zbigniew Sokolski, a mutineer who had become sympathetic to the plight of refugees fleeing war and political turmoil in the northern Baltic States.įollowing a ceasefire brokered by the League of Nations, the drawn-out Polish–Lithuanian War seemingly concluded with neither side gaining any tangible territory. From his castle, he and his (eventual) successors continued to fight against the Knights of the Teutonic Order until 1306 CE. Jan of Branaw (1213-1265 CE), commonly nicknamed as the 'Bloody Baron' for his heroic feats during the Battle of Bajorki, lived near Bielawa. Megalithic sites scattered throughout the country - presumably proving this existence, are often dismissed as the work of the so-called National Rebirth movement. No serious attempts at archaeological research to confirm this 'fact' has ever been carried out, however. It is widely believed that the first inhabitants of Livonia could be traced as far back as prehistoric times, living in the (now-partially abandoned) Nadbór region.
