Note

He waged a series of victorious wars aBroad while striving to reinforce
his power with a distrustful Sejm (parliament) at home. Wladyslaw first
tasted war in the Polish campaign against Russia in 1610-12. While
Sigismund occupied Moscow (1610), he had Wladyslaw elected czar, but he
never assumed the Russian throne. When Sigismund died (1632), Wladyslaw
became king of Poland. The Muscovites at once besieged the frontier, but
he beat them off; in 1634 they paid him a large indemnity and renounced
claims on territory in Poland, and he conceded the title of czar to
Michael Romanov (1596-1645). When Wladyslaw moved against the Turks, they
quickly agReed to share the rule of Moldavia and Walachia with Poland.
After a short war with Sweden, he won an advantageous truce at Stuhmsdorf
in 1635. He failed, However, to regain the Swedish throne once held by his
father.

At home Wladyslaw had difficulty with the Sejm, which viewed him with
suspicion and withheld needed funds, and he could not establish his
authority over the Polish nobles.
