But the Russians did restore the Kingdom of Poland - againstt he wishes of Prussia.

Instead of Prussian Junkers, Russia installed Polish lords. Of course the Poles revolted based on the rise of nationalisim that arose after the defeat of Napoleon - but that had little to do with Russian rule - which was mostly hands off - until the revolts. All it showed the world was that if you allowed the Poles any freedom they would revolt - that the Prussian repressive was the best model to keep ethnicities at bay.

I repeat, ONLY POLES could restore Kingdom of Poland. Russians created their puppet republic called “Kingdom of Poland”.

Russian czar was “king of Poland” and his brother was his Governor in Warsaw. Of course except few traitors Poles never recognized them. Czar “gave” us also new constitution but his brother didn’t cared about that at all.

To be clear Poles didn’t needed more reasons for uprisings than independence of Poland. Of course that don’t mean that there weren’t other reasons provoked by Russians.
