In the mid-1320s an agreement between the king of Poland, Władysław Łokietek, and Grand Duke of Lithuania, Gediminas, was made. Gedimina's daughter Aldona married Władysław Łokietek's son and future successor, Casimir III of Poland, in 1325, which led to improved relations.

In 1385 the growing threat of the Teutonic Order to both countries led to a firmer alliance - the Polish-Lithuanian union, which was ruled by the Jogailaičiai dynasty.
