The principality emerges was apportioned as the inheritance of Vsevolod I of Kiev(Kyiv, son of Yaroslav the Wise; his brother Sviatoslav received Chernigov, while Smolensk went to Viacheslav and Volodymyr to Igor; this ladder of succession is related to the seniority order mentioned above. Vsevolod's appanage included the northern lands of Rostov and the lightly colonised north-eastern zone of Rus (see Vladimir-Suzdal). The ''Primary Chronicle'' recorded that in 988 Vladimir had assigned the northern lands (later associated with Pereyaslavl) to Yaroslav. The town was destroyed by the Mongols in March 1239, the first of the great Rus cities to fall. Certainly from ...

Monomakhovichi Family
Monomakhovichi or House of Monomakh was a major princely branch of the Rurik dynasty, descendants of which managed to inherit practically all princely titles in the Grand Duchy of Kiev. The progenitor of the house is Vladimir II Monomakh (son of Vsevolod). The name derived from the grandfather of Vladimir, Constantine IX Monomachos. Due to its dominance and conflicts within itself, the branch was subdivided into three major factions: the sons of Mstislav I of Kiev, Izyaslavichi and Rostislavichi; and the sons of Yuri Dolgorukiy, Yurievichi. The split occurred in the 12th century. By that time, Rus has already lost its control over the Duchy of Polotsk and the Duchy of Halych which were self-governed by other Rurik-branched dynasties. The Monomakhovichi were in conflict also with other branches of the Rurik Dynasty such as the Olgovichi, Rostialvichi (Galicia) and Polotsk line. Main branches * Mstislavichi (Mstislav I of Kiev) **Shakhovskoy (Dmitry Shakhovskoy) * Volhynia (Izias ...

1083 Births
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by  2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following  0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is the s ...

He was the son of Mstislav I of Kiev and Christina Ingesdotter of Sweden. After Yaroslav II of Kiev was driven out of Novgorod, Rostislav was invited to become the ruler of Novgorod. He accepted, and became the prince on April 17, 1154. Then, learning that Iziaslav II had died, Rostislav left Novgorod to take the Kievan throne. Indignant that their prince had abandoned them and angered that "''he did not make order among them, but tore them more apart''", the citizens of Novgorod drove out Rostislav's son, David, who was their governor. They replaced him with Mstislav Yurievich, the son of Yury Dolgoruky. Rostislav ruled Kiev for one week before Iziaslav III of Kiev forced him to flee to Chernigov. He left four sons, princes David Rostislavich of ...
