The Second Partition of Poland occurred in 1793, when the Russian Empire and Prussia aqcuired more land from Poland-Lithuania in the aftermath of the War of the Second Partition a year earlier. The coerced Polish Sejm ceded Kiev, Braclaw, Podole, Minsk, Vilnius, Nowogrodek, Brest-Litovsk, and Volhynia to Russia, while Gdansk (Danzig), Torun (Thorn), Gniezno (Gnesen), Poznan (Posen), Sieradz, Kalisz (Kalisch), Plock, Brzesc Kujawski, Inowroclaw (Hohensalza), Dobrzyn Land (Dobrin an der Weichsel), Krakow, Rawa, and Mazovia were ceded to Prussia. The Polish agreed to the partition with the goal of preventing the inevitable Third Partition of Poland, which occurred in 1795.
