Between 1772 and 1815, the Russian Empire seized about four-fifths ofPoland-Lithuania, wherePolish was the leading official language.Polish remained the official language of the incorporated Polish-Lithuanian territories until the late 1830s. Later, it was fullyreplaced with Russian in the mid-1860s. A middle stage for the transition was the use of theRussian-style Cyrillic for writing Polish.[1]
