Timeline

1. 1675–1676Right-bank Ukraine · UkraineDuring 1675–1676 both sides attacked and defended but neither could achieve a decisive breakthrough; Poland's new king Sobieski, after consolidating royal power, sought to end the protracted war against the Ottomans through diplomacy.
2. 1676Zhuravno · UkraineThe two sides reached an agreement at Zhuravno: Poland retained Kyiv and other right-bank Ukrainian territories, ceded Podolia and the Bratslav Voivodeship, resumed an annual tribute of 22,000 ducats, and adjusted arrangements for governing the Cossacks.
3. 1677–1683Eastern border of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth · Eastern EuropeOnce both sides executed the treaty, the Polish-Ottoman eastern border was largely stabilized; although Poland lost Podolia, it avoided greater territorial losses, creating conditions for relative peace before the Battle of Vienna in 1683.
