He signed a treaty of mutual defence with Wladysław I "Lokietek" King of Poland 18 Jun 1325, which from Pomerania's viewpoint was aimed at protecting itself from Brandenburg's expansion. However, Duke Wartislaw signed another mutual defence treaty with the Teutonic Knights in Sep 1325 which, from Poland's viewpoint, was incompatible with the earlier treaty because of the king's continuing dispute with the Order over Gdansk[141].

Bogislaw V, Duke of Pomerania, by Wikipedia

Bogislaw V (Polish: Bogusław, Latin: Bogislaus) (c. 1318 – 23 April 1374) was a Duke of Pomerania.

Eldest son of Duke Wartislaw IV and Elisabeth of Silesia, Bogislaw had two brothers, Barnim IV and Wartislaw V. The brothers were joint rulers from their father's death in 1326.

Bogislaw received most of the Farther Pomeranian parts of Pomerania-Wolgast, thence Pomerania-Stolp (named after the town of Stolp, now Słupsk).
