Bishops of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth : ウィキペディア英語版 | Bishops of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth Bishops of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth were one of the highest ranking officials who could sit in the Senate of Poland. They sat first in the Senate, before the secular officials. Only Roman Catholic bishops sat in the Senate (see Senatorial offices for details). ==Competences== The most important official among the bishops was the Primate — the Archbishop of Gniezno. From 1572, the first time that Poland had been without a king (the Jagiellon Dynasty having died out with King Zygmunt II August), the Archbishop of Gniezno served as ''interrex'' — interim head of state until a new king could be elected. He represented the country and prepared elections for a new king. In addition, the Archbishop of Gniezno had the power to call a new Senate session, if he deemed it important to do so, even in the absence of the King. He could also invoke the "''de non praestanda obedientia''" article, giving the country the right to legally depose the King. From among other senators, he chose his own court marshal (often a castellan). That person acted as the Archbishop's messenger during Senate meetings, giving signs (by moving a cross) that conveyed how the Archbishop wished his allies to vote. The Archbishop of Gniezno had two deputies — the bishops of Wrocław and Poznań.
