A Song of Hope & Sacrifice (ASOIAF/GOT)

It is the year of 1492 King Casimir IV Jagiellon has just died,his son Augustine Jagiellon is going to be crowned king of the Polish Lithuanian commonwealth.Many were mourning the passing of the old king,becouse under his leadership the commonwealth defeated the teutonic knights and recovered pomerania and gained east prussia also becouse of him poland narrowed the distance seperating it from the western europe technologicly.For the next few years poland should have been at peace,but something unexpected happened the polish lithuanian commonwealth completely disappeared from the europe. And it appeared in a completely different world. (I took my inspiration from Chill_ean_Guy) (english is not my native language so there will be mistakes,its also my first fanfic) (also some things arent historically accurate,for example the commonwealth wasn't formed yet and the next king should have been john albert and there won't be a sejm(it's an nobility thing and it really limited the power of the king)the commonwealth will be a autocratic monarchy) (I don't own asoiaf or game of thrones they belong to George rr Martin)

Cavalry:

(Mainly there will be only the winged hussars)

The winged hussars is a heavy cavalry formation active in Poland and in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. Their epithet is derived from large rear wings, which were intended to demoralize the enemy during a charge.

Their armor and weapons:

The hussar dress was ostentatious and comprised plated body armour (cuirass, spaulders, bevors, and arm bracers) adorned by gold ornaments, a burgonet or lobster-tailed pot helmet and jackboots as well as versatile weaponry such as lances, koncerz, sabres, backswords, maces, and hatchets. It was customary to maintain a red-and-white colour scheme, and to be girded with tanned animal hide. The wings were traditionally assembled from the feathers of raptors, and the angel-like frame was fastened onto the armour or saddle.

There are around 20000 thousand hussars in the commonwealth
