What happens
When Jan Sobieski became king in 1674 he was already a renowned and glorious military leader. In fact, he started out as a general and ended up as a king. His reform of the Polish army thus started long before he became king, but it was under his Royal leadership that the strong effects of the reforms made a lasting impression on history. The New Polish Army saved Vienna from the onslaught of the Ottomans and forever stopped their advance. Unfortunately in the long run it helped Austria more than it helped Poland.
