Peace of Brze?? Kujawski was a peace treaty signed on December 31, 1435, in Brze?? Kujawski that ended the Polish?Teutonic War (1431?1435) . The treaty was signed in the aftermath of the Livonian Order 's defeat at the hands of the allied Polish-Lithuanian force in the Battle of Wiłkomierz . The Teutonic Knights agreed to cease their support to ?vitrigaila (who tried to break the Polish-Lithuanian union ) and in the future to support only Grand Dukes properly elected jointly by Poland and Lithuania. The treaty did not change borders determined by the Treaty of Melno in 1422. [1] The Peace of Brze?? Kujawski showed that Teutonic Knights lost their universal missionary status. [2] Teutonic and Livonian Order no longer interfered with Polish?Lithuanian affairs; instead Poland and Lithuania involved themselves in the Thirteen Years' War , the civil war in Prussia that tore it in half.
