In 1340 Prince Ljubartas conquered Ratne for the Grand Duchy of Lithuania . In 1349 it went to Poland and in 1366 to Lithuania again. In 1377 Ratne was the seat of a small independent rule with the cities of Ljuboml and Koschersk under Fiodoras , the son of the Lithuanian Grand Duke Algirdas . By 1387 at the latest, the rule had developed into the Principality of Kobrin . Around 1432 Ratne went directly from the principality to Lithuania.
