Question

the first partition was an agrement between these countries

Answer 1

The first partition agreement between countries is often referred to as the Partitions of Poland. It took place in the late 18th century and involved the partitioning of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth between neighboring powers, particularly the Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Prussia, and the Habsburg Monarchy (Austria). The agreement resulted in the division of Polish territory and the weakening of Poland as a sovereign state. The first partition occurred in 1772, with subsequent partitions taking place in 1793 and 1795. This partitioning was mainly driven by the ambitions of the neighboring powers to expand their own territories and influence within the region.
