In 1793, King Friedrich Wilhelm II annexed the areas around Danzig and Thorn (Torun). In 1793 and 1795, larger areas of Veneda were added, which were organized into the Provinces of South Prussia and New East Prussia.
New king was able to hold off serious invasion until 1795, when the alliance of those threatened by Prussia - Bohemia, Veneda and Scandinavia - was formed, decided to get back their territories from Kingdom of Prussia.
