The Act of November 5th of 1916 was a declaration of Emperors Wilhelm II of Germany and Franz Joseph of Austria. It proclaimed the creation of the Kingdom of Poland, a puppet state allied to and controlled by the Central Powers. The origin of that document was the dire need to draft new recruits from German-occupied Poland for the war with Russia.
