The Battle of Koniecpol was an encounter in November 1708 during the Great Northern War.
== History == Near Koniecpol in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, pro-Swedish forces under Stanisław Leszczyński of the Warsaw Confederation met with anti-Swedish forces of the Sandomierz Confederation, loyal to Augustus the Strong and allied with Russia. Both armies had a strength of about 10,000 men. The anti-Swedish Sandomierz Confederation won. Leszczyński was defeated, and thus unable to aid Charles XII of Sweden in the Russian campaign. The Warsaw Confederation would soon collapse, and the Sandomierz Confederation would reunite the Commonwealth under the reign of Augustus.
