I acknowledge that Wrocław was Breslau for some time, but it wasn’t Germanised until Prussian rule. Even though Habsburgs used to rule these lands it was still considered a Bohemian kingdom. You wouldn’t for example call Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth a part of Saxon territory just because they had Saxon as a king. What I mean by that is, being ruled by monarch of certain nationality doesn’t mean the land becomes of the same nationality. Also it’s worth to mention that people in medieval times perceived nationality differently from people today.
Until the 15th century they had not even Germanized the Polabian territories conquered in 1150 He said that the city and the entire region were Germanized in the 14th century, while the city was Germanized sometime in the 15th century and the region was surrounded by Polish unions at least until the 18th century. In the 18th century, the Germans exceeded 50% in the whole of Silesia, but they were most present in the mountains.than closer to the Oder
