シロンスク公爵は、ポーランド公ボレスワフ3世ヴリモスの息子および子孫の称号である。ボレスワフの遺言に従い、彼の死後、彼の領土は4つまたは5つの世襲州に分割され、息子たちに分配された。また、クラクフの王領は、全ポーランドの高位公となる長男のために留保された。これはポーランドの分裂として知られている。その後の展開により、公国はさらに分裂した。
14世紀初頭、シロンスクには14の独立した公国が存在した。下シロンスクにはブジェク、ヴロツワフ、シフィドニツァ、ヤヴォル、ジェンビツェ、グウォグフ、シチナヴァ、ジャガン、オレシニツァ、上シロンスクにはコジレ、チェシン、ビトム、ニェモドリン、オポーレ、シュトシェリツェ、ラチブシュ、オパヴァ、および教会領のニサ公国があった。1327年から1329年の間に、ほとんどの公爵はボヘミア王イオアン1世の君主権を受け入れ、イオアンはこれらすべての公国の継承権を獲得した。その後の数世紀でシロンスク・ピャスト家のすべての家系は断絶し、リーグニッツ公ゲオルク・ヴィルヘルムの死とともに王朝は消滅した。
シレジア公国

ポーランドの世襲制の州の一つであるシロンスク公国は、ボレスワフ3世の長男であるヴワディスワフ2世亡命公に与えられ、その後、その息子であるボレスワフ1世長男(ヴロツワフ/下シロンスク)、ミェシュコ1世タングルフット(ラチブシュ/上シロンスク) 、コンラト・スピンドルシャンクス(グウォグフ)に分割されました。コンラトの死後、グウォグフは再びヴロツワフ/下シロンスク公国と統合されました。
シレジア分割
1173年にボレスワフが帰国し、ミェシュコとボレスワフにシロンスク公国から分離した独自の公国を統治させることに同意した。これにより、ミェシュコ1世のラチブシュ公国、ヤロスワフのオポーレ公国が創設され、シロンスク公国の分裂が始まった。ミェシュコ1世とヤロスワフが支配していた領土は、おおよそ上シロンスクと呼ばれている地域に相当し、ボレスワフ1世が残した領土はおおよそ下シロンスクに相当する。

下シレジア
下シロンスク公国はシロンスク公国の直接の継承であったが、上シロンスクにほぼ相当する領土を持たなかったため、下シロンスクにほぼ相当する領土で構成されていた。いくつかの資料ではシロンスク公国、下シロンスク公国、さらにはヴロツワフ公国(ブレスラウ)と呼んでいる。ヴロツワフはシロンスク公国の首都であったが、この初期(1172年 - 1248年)のシロンスク公国を、1248年にさらに分割されて作られたより小さなヴロツワフ公国と混同すべきではない。公国はその後数年間にさまざまな国境変更を経験し、時には領土を失い、時には獲得した。1248年、ボレスワフ2世がヴロツワフ公国を弟のハインリヒ3世に譲り渡したため、下シロンスクは分割された。

上シレジア
上シロンスクはチェシン公国とオポーレ=ラチブシュ公国に分割された。1340年にラチブシュ公国はボヘミアの領地であるオパヴァと統合された。
