Editing Pope Clement VI (section)

===Poland and Bohemia===
Clement also had warned King [[Casimir III of Poland]], who was already under an interdict laid against him by the bishop of Kraków and the Apostolic See, because he had oppressed the Church of Kraków with intolerable burdens and then harassed the clergy who observed the interdict, that he was attracting more severe penalties to himself.<ref>Baronio, ''Annales ecclesiastici'', Year 1344, § 66; pp. 354–355.</ref>  In 1345 Clement sent a nuncio to King Casimir and King John of Bohemia, soliciting them to make peace between themselves, and threatening that, if they rejected his pleas, he would anathematize them and bar them from the sacraments.<ref>Baronio, ''Annales ecclesiastici'', Year 1345, § 14; pp. 362–363.</ref>

Responding to numerous complaints against the highhanded behavior of the [[archbishop of Mainz]], Prague's [[metropolitan bishop|metropolitan]], Clement made Prague an archbishopric on 30 April 1344, and assigned the [[Bishopric of Olomouc]] as its suffragan.  The [[archbishop of Prague]] acquired the right to crown the [[king of Bohemia]].<ref>Baronio, ''Annales ecclesiastici'', Year 1344, § 64–65, 353–354.</ref>
