Ostrog Ordynacja Ostrogskaya - an ancestral coordinationin the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, founded in 1609 by Janusz Ostrogski. Dissolved by the decision of the Sejm in 1766, the Ostrog Ordynacja was founded at the beginning of the 17th century to honor the power of the family of Ostrogski dukes. At the time of its establishment, it was the largest estate of its kind in the Republic. It included 24 towns and 592 villages. After the death of the founder in 1620, the fideikomis passed to the related Ostrogski- Zaslavsky dukes, and then to the Lubomirski and Sanguszko dukes. The acquisition of the latifundium by the Sanguszko family became the cause of their long-standing dispute with the Lubomirski family.
In 1753 Janusz Aleksander Sanguszko, at the instigation of the Czartoryski princes, concluded the Kolbuszow settlement. On its strength, the Ostrog Ordynacja was dissolved, and its property was parceled out among the largest magnate families of the Crown of the Polish Kingdom: Potocki, Lubomirski, Jabłonowski, Malachowski, Czacki, Sapieha, Szydlowski and Czartoryski. The division of the ordynacja later served the Familia to recruit partisans in favor of the Republic's political reforms and brought an increase in the importance of the Lubomirski princes. On the other hand, it contributed to the notorious 18th-century political scandal mentioned by Kitowicz in his Description of customs during the reign of August III. The cancellation of the ordinance was approved by the 1766 Sejm. [source: Wikipedia].
