(E) Before Wladyslaw II converted to Christianity and married Jadwiga, the second of Poland's Angevin rulers, thereby becoming King of Poland, he was Grand Duke of Lithuania, Jogaila.

I too choose D but upon observation I feel usage " he was Jogaila" is not correct rather it should be "he was known as Jogaila".In A subject is delayed for a very long time but its ok.

Before converting to Christianity and marrying Jadwiga, the second of Poland's Angevin rulers, thereby becoming King of Poland, Wladyslaw II was known as Jogaila, Grand Duke of Lithuania.
(A) Before converting to Christianity and marrying Jadwiga, the second of Poland's Angevin rulers, thereby becoming King of Poland, Wladyslaw II was known as Jogaila, Grand Duke of Lithuania.
(B) Before he converted to Christianity, married Jadwiga, the second ruler of Poland's Angevin, and became King of Poland, Wladyslaw II was known as Jogaila, Grand Duke of Lithuania.

(E) Before Wladyslaw II converted to Christianity and married Jadwiga, the second of Poland's Angevin rulers, thereby becoming King of Poland, he was Grand Duke of Lithuania, Jogaila.

Elimination:
B: Second ruler of Poland's Angevin is not matching with second of Poland's Angevin rulers. Secondly, too many breaks in the sentence is losing the clarity.
C: Before marying Jadwiga and converting to christianity,...... thereby becoming king ... changes the order and meaning
D: It sounds like King of Poland was Jogaila
E: same as D

hence, IMO A !
