Polnitsa (Polnitsan: Polnitske Wulkowójwodstwo; Gariman: Großherzogtum Polnitsa) is a state of Garima. It is located along Lake Kupalnitsa, and is bordered to the north by Ostrozava. Polnitsa has been in a personal union with the Electorate of Rahdenburg, a neighboring state of Garima, since 1706. Polnitsa became a state of Garima, in 2008, following a popular referendum.
During the Early Medieval period, Polnitsa was established as a tributary to the Kingdom of Livalia. In 1499, a revolt led by local nobleman Boleslaw Lȇsorn succeeded in achieving independence from Livalia, and became the first Grand Duke of Polnitsa. The House of Lȇsorn ruled Polnitsa for the next two centuries until it was followed by the House of Moricia, who ruled the neighboring Duhcy of Rahdenburg, in Garima. A personal union between Rahdenburg and Polnitsa was established in 1706 with the marriage of Maximilian I, Elector of Rahdenburg and Catherine, Duchess of Polnitsa. Various attempts were made to centralize the two realms throughout history, though faced hard resistance from factions in both countries and Garima. Polnitsa's status as an independent realm has long been challenged, and joined neighboring Garima following a successful referendum in the aftermath of the 2005 civil war.
While sharing the same monarch, Rahdenburg and Polnitsa remain two separate states in Garima under a personal union, with the Grand Duke of Polnitsa ruling as the Elector of Rahdenburg under the King of Garima. Its legislature and most ministerial offices have been controlled by a coalition of the League of Democrats and Farmers and the Green-Socialist Alliance, since 2015.
