The Galician boyars had his mother burned as a witch, forced his father to reinstate his wife (whom Yaroslav Volodimerovich had left in order to take Oleg’s mother), and imprisoned Oleg. Yaroslav Volodimerovich died on 1 October 1187, giving Peremyshl (Przemyśl, Poland) to his only legitimate son, Vladimir Yaroslavich.

After Oleg failed to solicit aid from Ryurik Rostislavich, he went to Duke Casimir II of Poland (1177–1194). Oleg's stepbrother, Vladi ...

Salomea Of Poland
Salomea of Poland (1211/1212 – 1268), also known as Salomea of Cracow or Blessed Salomea ( pl, Błogosławiona Salomea), (1211–1268) was a Polish princess and from 1215 to 1219 the Queen of Halych by virtue of being the wife of Kálmán or Coloman of Galicia. Life Salomea was the daughter of Leszek I the White, who was the Duke of Kraków and thus the High Duke in Poland, and his wife Grzymisława of Łuck (or Lutsk). She was the older sister of Bolesław V the Chaste. Her marriage to Kálmán, who was the son of King András or Andrew II of Hungary, was negotiated when she was about three. Since her mother had ancestral connections to the lands of Galicia, and both her father and King Andrew wanted to dominate that area, this plan seemed to meet the needs of both parties. The marriage of Salomea and Kálmán, who was seven at the time, occurred in 1215. In 1219 their control in Galicia was ended and for a time they were taken as prisoners. After their release they returne ...
