This region was first mentioned in the medieval chronicle Povist’ vremennykh lit (Tale of Bygone Years), which described Grand Prince Volodymyr the Great ‘s war with the Poles in 981 and his annexation of Peremyshl and the Cherven towns to Kyivan Rus . In 992, Volodymyr marched on the White Croatians and annexed Subcarpathia . Thus, by the end of the 10th century all of Galicia’s territory was part of Kyivan Rus’, so under the direct control and influence of the hegemonic Principality of Kiev/Tchernigov and must be, from that time, considered as a feudal entity, subject to the Principality of Kiev/Tchernigov, whose Grand Prince was endowed with the perpetual right to always dispose of the final decision power on this particular territory.

After the death of Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise in 1054, Kyivan Rus’ began to fall apart into its component principalities.

From 1084 Yaroslav ‘s great-grandsons, Riuryk Rostyslavych ,Volodar Rostyslavych , and Vasylko Rostyslavych, ruled the lands of Peremyshl, Zvenyhorod , and Terebovlia.

Volodar’s son, Volodymyrko Volodarovych, inherited the Zvenyhorod principality in 1124, the Peremyshl principality in 1129, and Terebovlia principality and Halych land in 1141; he made princely Halych his capital. Volodymyrko’s son, Yaroslav Osmomysl , the pre-eminent prince of the Rostyslavych dynasty, enlarged Halych principality during his reign (1153–87) to encompass all the lands between the Carpathian Mountains and the Dnister River as far south as the lower Danube River. Trade and salt mining stimulated the rise of a powerful boyar estate in Galicia. The boyars often opposed the policies and plans of the Galician princes and undermined their rule by provoking internal strife and supporting foreign intervention. When Volodymyr Yaroslavych, the last prince of the Rostyslavych dynasty, died in 1199, the boyars invited Prince Roman Mstyslavych of Volhynia to take the throne. Roman Mstyslavych united Galicia with Volhynia and thus created the Principality of Galicia-Volhynia. It was ruled by the Rus’ dynasty until 1340. The period from 1205 to 1238 in the Galician-Volhynian state was one of further intervention by Hungary and Poland, of internal strife among the appanage princes and the boyars, and hence of economic decline. During the reign of Danylo Romanovych (1238–64), however, Galicia-Volhynia flourished, despite the Mongol invasion of 1240–1. Danylo Romanovych promoted the development of existing towns and built new ones (Lviv, Kholm , and others), furthered the status of his allies (the burghers ), and subdued the rebellious boyars. Using diplomacy and dynastic ties with Europe’s rulers, he strove to stem the Mongol expansion. The Galicia-Volhynian state flourished under Danylo Romanovych’s successors. In 1272 Lviv became the capital, and in 1303 Halych metropoly was founded. But resurgent boyar defiance, the Mongol presence, and the territorial ambitions of Poland and Hungary took their toll. The Romanovych dynasty came to an end in 1340 when boyars poisonedPrince Yurii II Boleslav , and rivalry among the rulers of Poland, Hungary, Lithuania , and the Mongols for possession of Galicia and Volhynia ensued. The Polish era. The struggle lasted until 1387. In 1340 King Casimir III the Great of Poland attacked Lviv and departed with the Galician-Volhynian regalia. A boyar oligarchy ruled Galicia under the leadership of Dmytro Dedko until 1349, when Casimir again invaded and progressively occupied it. In 1370 Casimir’s nephew, Louis I the Great of Hungary, also became the king of Poland; he appointed Prince Władysław Opolczyk in 1372 and Hungarian vicegerents from 1378 to govern Galicia. After the marriage of Grand Duke Jagiełło of Lithuania and Louis’s daughter, Queen Jadwiga of Poland, and the resulting dynastic union in 1386, an agreement was reached whereby Galicia and the Kholm region were acquired from Hungary by Poland, and Volhynia became part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania .

Under Polish rule, Galicia was known at first as the ‘Rus’ land’ or Red Rus’ and was administered by a starosta , or vicegerent, appointed by the king. Roman Catholic dioceses were established in Peremyshl , Halych , and Kholm and were granted large estates and government subsidies. In 1365 a Catholic archdiocese was founded in Halych; it was transferred to Lviv in 1414. In the early 15th century, the region was renamed Rus’ voivodeship . Its capital became Lviv, and it was divided into four lands: Lviv, Halych, Peremyshl, and Sianik ; in the 16th century, the Kholm region was also incorporated. In 1434, Rus’ law , based on Ruskaia Pravda , was abolished in Galicia and replaced by Polish law and the Polish administrative system. Land was distributed among the nobility , who proceeded to build up latifundia and to subject and exploit the peasants .

From 1452 to 1569 Volhynia was a province of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania consisting of Volodymyr-Volynskyi, Lutsk, and Kremianets starostv. It came under increasing Polish administrative and economic influence, but maintained the church traditions, customs, and way of life of the Princely era. In the 15th and 16th centuries the princely and noble families led a continuing struggle against the Tartars, consolidated their privileged positions in society. As the Turks and Tartars blocked access to the Mediterranean markets, Volhynia strengthened its trade with the Baltic ports. In the 16th century the flow of Polish nobles and tradesmen into Volhynia, which was one of the most densely populated Ukrainian regions, increased. As Polish influence grew, the condition of the Volhynian peasantry became more difficult.

After the Union of Lublin (1569) Volhynia became a Polish crown voivodeship without losing its internal autonomy and Ukrainian character. The union, however, accelerated the Polonization of the administration and the upper estates of Volhynia. The struggle against Roman Catholicism and the Ukrainian national-cultural movement at the beginning of the 17th century was expressed in the writings of the opponents and the supporters of the Church Union of Berestia (1596) (see Polemical literature ), the Orthodox opposition to the Reformation in Hoshcha , Lutsk, and elsewhere, the activities of the Orthodox brotherhoods in Ostrih , Volodymyr-Volynskyi , and Lutsk (see Lutsk Brotherhood of the Elevation of the Cross ), and the founding of the Ostrih Academy , schools in Volodymyr-Volynskyi, Lutsk, Dubno , and elsewhere, and printing presses in Ostrih, Pochaiv , Derman, Kremianets , Kostiantyniv, and Chetvertnia. The insurrections of Kryshtof Kosynsky (1591–3) and Severyn Nalyvaiko (1595) received wide support in Volhynia. During Bohdan Khmelnytsky ‘s uprising rebel groups led by MaksymKryvonis, I. Donets, and M. Tyt were active there. Some of the battles of the Cossack-Polish War of 1648–57 took place in Volhynia (Zbarazh , Vyshnevets, Brody , and, most notably, the Battle of Berestechko ). Nevertheless Volhynia never became part of the Hetman state but remained a province of Poland

Major social changes occurred in Volhynia and Galicia. Boyars who refused to convert to Catholicism forfeited their estates. Many resettled in the Lithuanian lands; those who did not became impoverished, déclassé petty gentry and, with time, commoners. Certain boyars received royal privileges; they gradually renounced their Orthodox faith and stopped speaking Ukrainian, and became instead Polonized Catholics. The tendency to assimilate permeated all of Galicia’s upper strata and was particularly prominent in the second half of the 16th century; by the end of the 17th century most of the Ukrainian nobility had become Polonized. At the same time Ukrainian merchants and artisans were deprived of their rights by the now favored Polish Catholic burghers who colonized the towns and received official positions and privileges granted solely to them by Magdeburg law. Polish government circles encouraged the inflow of Polish and foreign nobles and Catholicpeasants into Volhynia and Galicia. The number of Poles, Germans, Armenians, and (later) Jews increased in the towns, where they established separate communities. The government’s discrimination and limitations imposed by the guilds on the Ukrainian burghers provoked them to form brotherhoods to defend their rights towards the end of the 16th century. In the 16th century corvée was introduced in the Polish Commonwealth. This excessive exploitation of peasant labor, which in many cases became actual slavery, led to peasant uprisings, among them the Mukha rebellion of 1490–2. Many peasants also escaped from the oppression to the steppe frontier of central Ukraine. The Orthodox church, which had the support of the Ukrainian masses, had played an important role in Galicia. Yet the separate existence of Halych metropoly had been opposed from 1330 on by the metropolitans of Kyiv, who resided in Moscow. Halych metropoly therefore had no hierarch in the years 1355–70 and was abolished in 1401. Halych eparchy had no bishop from 1406 to 1539. At the end of the 16th century, in response to the Roman Catholic threat as well as the Reformation, a Ukrainian Orthodox religious and cultural revival began. The defense of Ukrainian interests was assumed by the aforementioned brotherhoods. One of the first was the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood , which existed as early as 1463, but whose earnest activity began in the 1580s, when it received Stauropegion status and founded a school (Lviv Dormition Brotherhood School ), printing press (Lviv Dormition Brotherhood Press ) and hospital. Brotherhoods were founded in many other towns in Galicia using the one in Lviv as the model. Because of the brotherhoods, Galicia became an important center of Ukrainian cultural and religious life. The Lviv brotherhood, for example, nurtured such major Ukrainian figures as Petro Konashevych-Sahaidachny , Yov Boretsky , Yelysei Pletenetsky , Zakhariia Kopystensky , and Petro Mohyla . After the 1596 Church Union of Berestia established the Ruthenian Uniate church, a long period of bitter internal strife between the Ukrainian Orthodox opponents of the union and its Uniate supporters ensued. (See History of the Ukrainian church and Polemical literature .) The Orthodox church lost its official status, which was not restored by the Polish king until 1632, and Galicia’s role as the bastion of Ukrainian Orthodoxy was eclipsed. When the efforts of the leaders of the Hetman state to unite all the Ukrainian territories failed, the Orthodox hierarchs inGalicia and the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood accepted the church union, and in 1709 Uniate Catholicism became the only faith practiced by Galicia’s Ukrainians .

After the war there were other manifestations of support for pan-Ukrainian political unity by Galicia’s Ukrainians, but not on a mass scale. Galicia remained primarily a theater where the Cossack and Polish armies clashed; consequently, much of its population fled and settled in the Hetman state and Slobidska Ukraine . In the Polish era, popular reaction to Polish rule and oppression in Galicia also took the form of social banditry. The brigands, called opryshoks, were particularly active in Subcarpathia andPokutia from the 16th to the 19th century; their most famous leader was Oleksa Dovbush . From the second half of the 17th century, Poland experienced a series of wars and political, social, andeconomic crises leading to a general weakening of the regime that its neighbors (Austria, Prussia, and Russia) exploited. In 1772 the first partition of Poland occurred and a part of Galicia was annexed by the Austrian Empire forming the Kingdom of Galicia-Lodomeria, an satellite Habsburg stat . After the fall of the Austrian Empire, as a consequence of World War I and then World War II, Galicia an Volyinia fell under the influence of USSR. From 1992 they belongs to the Republic of Ukraine and nowadays they are the seat of the respective Princely and Grand Ducal House restored as moral entity by the House of the Princes of Kiev (nominal titulars of the original Galicia-Volhynia Principality, since 1054)

Vasylko Rostyslavych (Vasyly; ca 1066–28.02.1124) – Prince of Terebovlia (early 1090 s – 1124), the third son of the founder of the Halych princely dynasty Rostyslav Volodymyrovych of Tmutorokan and Lanka, daughter of King Béla I of Hungary.

Born probably in Tmutorokan. After the death of his father (1067) together with elder brothers was evicted from the city. The Prince-outcast served at the court of the Prince Yaropolk Iziaslavych of Volyn. J. Dlugosz states that Vasylko headed troops in the border conflict with Poland in 1081. After his elder brother Riurik became established in Peremyshl (now Przemyśl, Poland), moved to him, strengthened his positions in Halych lands and got the Terebovlia Principality. Fought actively for the retention of Halych lands by the Rostyslavychi.

During the Polish-Halych war of 1091–1092, with the assistance of the Pechenegs and Torks he inflicted several blows on the Poles. Initiated the development of the Dnister lower reaches. Took part in the battle of 1091 at the bank of the River Maritsa where Emperor Alexius I Komnenos, along with Polovtsian Khans Tugorkan and Boniak, crushed the Pecheneg army. It was after that battle that the Pechenegs disappeared gradually, instead the Polovtsians became the rulers of the steppe. In 1097 he took part in the Liubech Congress of Princes. When the Congress ended, Vasylko, foully slandered by the Prince Davyd Ihorovych of Volyn, was treacherously captured and blinded by order of Kyivan Prince Sviatopolk Iziaslavych near Kyiv (now the village of Bilohorodka, Kyiv-Sviatoshyne District, Kyiv Oblast). These events are reproduced in The Tale ofBlinding of Vasylko of Terebovlia (1097).

Blind Vasylko successfully ruled his principality under the extremely adverse circumstances. In 1099 he, together with his brother Volodar, defeated troops of Kyivan and Smolensk Princes in the battle at Rozhne Pole (west of the town of Zolochiv, Lviv region). That same year at the River Vihor, near Peremyshl, with the assistance of the Polovtsian Khan Boniak the Rostyslavychi defeated the Hungarian army headed by Prince Koloman.

Together with the Polovtsians and some Rus princes Vasylko Rostyslavych waged several campaigns against Poland. The chronicle compiled by a Peremyshl burgher in the 16 th c. tells under the year of 1089 that Prince Vasylko Rostyslavych with the Polovtsians invaded Polish lands, burnt down many castles and captured many Poles.

According to the decision of the Vytychiv Congress of 1100, Vasylko Rostyslavych was deprived of Terebovlia, but he did not submit to such decision and remained in the town. In 1118 Vasylko Rostyslavych and Volodar helped the Prince Volodymyr Monomakh of Kyiv to restrain Yaroslav Sviatopolchych; in 1122 Vasylko ransomed Volodar from the Polish captivity.

In 1123 he was an ally of Prince Yaroslav Sviatopolchych, aiding in his struggle against Andriy Volodymyrovych, son of Prince Volodymyr Monomakh, in Volodymyr. Kyivan princes had to reckon with Vasylko Rostyslavych. Rostyslavych Vasylko Rostyslavych Vasylko Prince of Terebovlia 1066—02/28/1124

Volodar Rostislavich of Peremyshl, Prince of Peremyshl, Prince of Zvenigorod (Halych), was born 1065 to Rostislav Vladimirovich of Tmutarakan (c1038-1067) and Anna Lanke of Hungary (1047-1095) and died 19 March 1124 of unspecified causes. Notable ancestors include Charlemagne (747-814). Ancestors are from Russia, Ukraine, Germany, France, Belgium, the Byzantine Empire, Sweden.

Volodar Rostislavich was Prince of Zvenigorod (1085-1092) and Prince of Peremyshl (1092-1124). He was the great-grandson of Yaroslav the Wise and the son of Rostislav Vladimirovich of Tmutarakan. He was the grandfather Yaroslav Vladimirovich Osmomysl. 

On the death of his father in 1067, Volodar and his brothers Rurik and Vasilko were expelled from Tmutarakan. They resided in Vladimir-Volynsky at the court of Yaropolk Izyaslavich. Together with his brothers ran away from him and took possession of the lands in the Carpathian region. In 1086 Yaropolk, entered into an alliance with Vsevolod Yaroslavich and was killed during the campaign against Rostislav.

The Council of Lyubech (1097) secured the Principality of Peremyshl for Volodar. In 1099 is a new attempt of the Grand Prince of Kiev Svyatopolk Izyaslavich) to establish control over the south-western Russian lands, but Volodar and his brothers won, and then, during the invasion of the Hungarians, Volodar defended Peremyshl. The Hungarians were defeated by his allies: Davyd Igorevich and Cumans in the Battle of the Wiar River).

In 1117 Volodar and Vasilko and fought in alliance with Vladimir Monomakh and Davyd Svyatoslavich against Yaroslav Svyatopolchik. The allies besieged Vladimir-Volynsky and forced the prince to surrender.

In 1119 Volodar participated together with the Hungarians in the campaign against Byzantium and returned with a rich booty.

In 1122 Volodar went to war against the Poles, ravaged many areas, took a lot of production, but because of the treachery of its governor Petrona was in Polish captivity. Vasilko had to collect a large ransom in 2000 hryvnia silver to redeem his brother from captivity.

In 1123 Volodar with his brother, Hungarians, Poles and Czechs were on the side of Yaroslav Svyatopolchik and besieged Andrei Vladimirovich in Vladimir-Volynsky. After Yaroslav's death the allies broke the siege.

He was buried in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Przemyśl

How Rostislavich kept their principality

Alas, no better cards were found. All maps of Southwest Russia found on the network are given mainly from the time of the Romanovichs, something that was not bearable in the XI-XII century could not be found

Rostislav Vladimirovich, who was killed in Tmutarakan, had three sons left: Rurik, Volodar and Vasilko. After the death of their father, they grew up at the court of their cousin uncle, Yaropolk Izyaslavich, who from 1078 became prince in Vladimir-Volynsky. The brothers, like their father, were outcasts, did not have real power, did not have their own squads, and if they did, then in quantities clearly insufficient for independent politics. They did not expect anything outstanding under the existing order of things, because they were actively looking for ways to improve their social status, or rather, to get their inheritance in the board and cease to depend on relatives who either rose or fell in the turbulent cauldron of political life in Russia at that time. It was difficult to do this by legal means, because the search was conducted for illegal ways, i.e. just ways to drive out local princes from somewhere and sit down to rule by ourselves.

Just at that time, on the territory of the principality, especially in its southern part, which was called Subcarpathia, later became Przemysl principality, and then Galicia, dissatisfaction began to ripen. Local communities were dissatisfied with the rule of Yaropolk, civil wars, Polish garrisons in large cities, and many others. The factor of weakening the power of the Grand Duke of Kiev also affected, because of which there appeared tendencies for separation or at least isolation of individual principalities. Nevertheless, the legacy of the times of Vladimir the Great and Yaroslav the Wise still affected - the local communities associated their future only with the Rurikovichs and therefore they needed some representative of the ruling dynasty in order to achieve legitimacy and, possibly, strengthen their capabilities in the future struggle for a place under the sun. In the person of the Rostislavichs, the local population acquired three princes at once. Without the support of the communities, Rurik, Volodar, and Cornflower had little chance of success; in addition, there is no information that they would have any other support from outside. The union of three brothers and sub-Carpathian communities became natural and even inevitable.

In 1084, taking advantage of the departure of Yaropolk Izyaslavich from Vladimir, the Rostislavichs went to the Cherven cities and rebelled there against the prince. Przemysl also supported them, as a result of which the backbone of the troops of the three brothers made up the city regiments (otherwise it is almost impossible to explain the appearance of their army). The Polish garrisons were driven out in the face of superior forces, and soon after that Vladimir-Volynsky was taken without much bloodshed, who probably simply opened the gates to the rebels. Yaropolk requested help from the Kiev prince, and he sent his son, Vladimir Monomakh, with the aim of returning the principality to the control of his rightful ruler. It was possible to recapture the capital of the principality, but its southern territories, including the major cities of Przemysl, Zvenigorod and Terebovlyu, showed serious resistance. In the end, Monomakh was forced to go back to Kiev, and Yaropolk continued to struggle with the Rostislavichs, during which he died - in 1086 he was killed by his own warrior Neradts. Since Neradec then found refuge in Przemysl, the Rostislavichs were accused of the murder, but they didn’t care: acting together with the communities of the three large cities of South-Western Russia, the outcast princes gained vast and rich lands in their own possession, establishing their authority there .

Principality of Rostislavich

F. A. Bruni. Blinding Vasilka Terebovlskogo

Since 1086, the Volyn principality, before that one, was divided into two parts. Severnaya, with its capital in Vladimir-Volynsky, was controlled by “legitimate” rulers according to logging law, with the exception of the city of Dorogobuzh, which in 1084 was transferred to Davyd Igorevich by decision of the Kiev prince. In the south, having divided the possessions among themselves, the Rostislavichs began to rule, having founded a separate branch of the Rurikovich, later called the First Galician Dynasty. Rurik as the elder brother became the supreme ruler of the newly formed principality, settling in Przemysl. His younger brothers, Volodar and Vasilko, sat down to rule in Zvenigorod and Terebovle respectively. Inheritance in the principality took place within the framework of this branch of the Rurikovich, in exchange for this the princes received significant support from local communities who regularly put their troops under the command of the Rostislavichs - otherwise it is difficult to explain how they managed to repel the numerous encroachments of neighbors on the lands of Przemysl.

Rurik died in 1092, leaving no children behind. Volodar became the prince in Przemysl, who turned out to be a long-lived prince and ruled there until 1124. His reign turned out to be quite eventful. In 1097, he attended the Lyubech Congress of Princes, where he became close friends with Vladimir Monomakh and achieved recognition of his rights to Przemysl. This did not please Prince Davyd Igorevich, who at that time began to rule Volyn: he considered that the Rostislavichi threatened his position and could challenge him with power over the principality. It is possible that Davyda was supported by the community of Vladimir-Volynsky, which lost part of its power and profits with the loss of Subcarpathia. On the side of Davyd Igorevich stood the Grand Duke of Kiev, Svyatopolk Izyaslavich, who in the same year kidnapped Volodar's younger brother, Vasilka, and blinded him, which provoked the beginning of a new strife.

However, the effect of blinding Vasilk turned out to be completely opposite to what could help the cause of Davyd and Svyatopolk. Volodar Rostislavich news about this abuse of his younger brother caused a storm of indignation. The community also joined the prince - the Rostislavichs were “their own” for her, and therefore the blinding of Vasilka was an insult to all the communes of the principality. In addition, the youngest of Rostislavichi was a fairly popular ruler; in the early 1090s, in alliance with the Polovtsy, he went on long trips, including Poland, had great ambitions and sought to establish himself in Bulgaria. People considered such a prince “their own” and therefore were ready to fit in for him in full.

Davyd, taking with him the blinded Vasilk, invaded the territory of Przemysl principality and besieged Terebovlya, a former border town. However, he soon encountered troubles - Volodar managed to quickly assemble a considerable army and drove the Volyn prince to the city of Buzhsk, where he was forced to sit under siege. The situation of Davyd became hopeless, and in exchange for the release of Vasilk he was allowed to leave the city. Nevertheless, Volodar did not let up and besieged the Volyn prince in his capital, the city of Vladimir. In the end, Davyd was forced to flee to Poland and seek support there, and the Rostislavichs began to catch everyone who somehow participated in the blindness of Vasilka. They didn’t execute them personally, handing over the guilty to the hands of community residents, who themselves punished the criminals by hanging on trees and shooting from bows. The unity of Rostislavich and Subcarpathian communities at that time was absolute.

War again

Russian princes were outraged history with the blinding of Vasilka, and therefore in 1098 they gathered a large army, which approached Kiev and forced Svyatopolk Izyaslavich, a participant in the blinding, to punish the main culprit of the incident, Davyd Igorevich. He did not lose time, having managed to return to his principality with the support of the Poles. Svyatopolk had to negotiate neutrality with them, and then besiege Vladimir-Volynsky in order to punish the Volyn prince. However, when it came to real punishments, no special measures were taken - Davyd Igorevich, in fact, voluntarily left the city, going to rule in Cherven, and the son of Svyatopolk, Mstislav, sat down to rule in Vladimir.

After the assertion of his authority in Volhynia, Svyatopolk did not find a better idea how to ... go on a campaign against the Rostislavichs! Meanwhile, Davyd Igorevich was not going to abandon his claims to Volyn, actively looking for allies. As a result of this, a situation arose in South-Western Russia when military operations were conducted between three separate parties, which could either fight with each other or enter into short-term alliances. The first side was the Rostislavichs, who defended their possessions in the Przemysl principality, the second - Prince Chervensky, Davyd Igorevich, who claimed Vladimir-Volynsky, and the third - the Grand Prince of Kiev Svyatopolk. The latter theoretically had the greatest opportunities, but he put his son Mstislav to reign in Vladimir without taking into account the views of the local community, as a result of which she did not have great love for him. This could not play a role in the future ...

The campaign of Svyatopolk with his sons against the Rostislavichs in 1099 ended with the battle on the Rozhny field. Volodar and Vasilko, accustomed to fighting for their interests together with the community, won the battle. This victory of its kind was the first, for the troops of the Prince of Kiev were defeated for the first time in a battle not for Kiev itself. One of the sons of Svyatopolk, Yaroslav, still did not stop, and therefore soon invaded the territory of the principality from the west, with the support of the Hungarian king Coloman I, his relative. This was the first time in a long series of interventions by Hungarian kings in the affairs of Southwest Russia. The brothers were besieged because they could not resist the large Hungarian army in the field.

The position was saved by the Polovtsian Khan Bonyak, who simultaneously acted as an ally of Rostislavich and Davyd Igorevich. Hungarian troops were ambushed on the Vagra River and suffered a heavy defeat, because of which they were forced to leave the territory of Przemysl principality. After that, Davyd Igorevich and the Polovtsy moved to the capital of Volyn. The city was defended mainly by visiting warriors, which emphasizes the chronicle - the Vladimirites themselves refused to support Mstislav Svyatopolchich, who died during the siege while on the wall. An attempt by supporters of the Kiev prince led by Davyd Svyatoslavich (not to be confused with his namesake!) To unlock the city failed, as a result of which Davyd Igorevich’s control over Volyn was restored.

In 1100, Russian princes gathered in Uvetichi to agree on peace conditions. Davyd Igorevich, despite his achievements, was still deprived of the Volyn principality, which was transferred to Yaroslav Svyatopolchich (the very one who brought the Hungarians to Russia a year ago). However, Davydu still left a number of cities in the possession, the main of which was Buzhsk. The Grand Duke of Kiev himself, Svyatopolk, was still trying to return Subcarpathia to his possession and therefore, together with his allies and supporters, put forward an ultimatum to the Rostislavichs - to give him Terebovlya and remain to rule only Przemysl, which he was ready to hand over to the volost with his lordly hand. How exactly the brothers answered this is unknown, but the fact remains: they did not give anything to the Kiev prince. The separate existence of the Principality of Rostislavich continued.

Volodar, Prince Peremyshlsky

After 1100, Volodar could be considered the prince of Przemysl and all the lands of Subcarpathia with even greater right, and even the prince of Kiev could not somehow weaken the power of the Rostislavichs, who acted in close cooperation with local communities. The prince himself turned out to be a pretty good ruler, a skilled diplomat, able to plan ahead and see the benefits of relations with certain of his relatives. In addition, he perfectly understood both his precarious situation and the importance of developing the lands entrusted to him, due to which his policy regarding strife in Russia could be called successful. Rostislavichi took part in them, but rarely enough, without attracting large forces. Everything was done to ensure the rapid development of the principality, its security and independence. Communities of the cities of Subcarpathia highly appreciated this policy and remained selflessly loyal to Volodar throughout his reign.

The prince conducted the "foreign" policy quite flexibly. Sworn enemies or eternal friends did not exist for him. In 1101, Volodar, together with Prince Chernigov, Davyd Svyatoslavich, went on a campaign against the Poles, although only a couple of years ago they were, if not enemies, then certainly fought on opposite sides of the barricades. Relations with Vladimir Monomakh, who were given support during his conflict in 1117 with the Volyn prince, Yaroslav Svyatopolchich, were kept warm enough. This did not prevent Volodar in 1123 from supporting the same Yaroslav Svyatopolchich in the war against the son of Monomakh, Andrei, since the Rostislavichs were seriously afraid of Vladimir Monomakh’s gaining power in Volhynia. In 1119, along with the Polovtsy, Prince Peremyshl went to Byzantium, collecting rich booty, and in 1122, during a raid on the Poles, he was captured due to the betrayal of his governor, as a result of which Vasilk had to redeem his older brother for a large sum of money.

Of the two daughters of Volodar, one was married to the son of Vladimir Monomakh, and the second to the son of the Byzantine emperor Alexei I Komnin.

Volodar died in 1124, showing himself, though not a great ruler, but certainly outstanding among many others. The fact that he acted in the interests of his principality, and also ruled for more than 30 years, allowed Przemysl principality to grow stronger and stronger to a large extent. Moreover, the laws of an ordinary ladder did not apply to the principality of Rostislavich. Three large destinies, Przemysl, Terebovlya and Zvenigorod, from now on could only be in the possession of Rostislavichi. It is from the reign of Prince Volodar that you can count the beginning of the future Galician principality as a separate from the rest of Russia, strong and developed, with great potential.

One cannot but mention the activity of the younger Rostislavich. Vasilko continued to rule Terebovlem until his death in the same 1124. During this time, he managed to significantly strengthen the border with the steppe, settling them with settlers and founding a number of settlements. At the same time, relations with the Polovtsy gradually improved, which even their periodic raids on the Terebovl land could not prevent. In his expansion to the south, he even made claims to the Bulgarian territories and actively used the nomads who wanted to settle as new settlers. Probably, Vasilk belongs to merit in the rapid development of one of the cities of his land, which in the future will become the capital of the whole principality - Galich, in which one of his sons sat down to rule immediately after the death of Vasilk. However, this is already a slightly different time ...

Vladimirko Volodarevich

After the death of Volodar Rostislavich, the ruler in Przemysl became his eldest son, Rostislav. He had not the simplest relations with the Poles - in 1122 he managed to be held hostage, captured after an unsuccessful trip to Poland, while his father was collecting a ransom, and already in 1124 he managed to defend Przemysl from them. He soon also had a chance to fight with his younger brother, Vladimir Volodarevich, who, with the help of the Hungarians, tried to become the supreme ruler of the whole principality. The war did not lead to anything, since the cousins ​​and Mstislav of Kiev supported the prince. However, in 1128, for an unknown reason, Rostislav died without leaving any heirs, and the very Vladimir became the prince in Przemysl.

Vladimir Volodarevich was an energetic, purposeful and domineering man, not counting natural duplicity, cynicism and unprincipledness. He wanted to create a centralized and strong principality, capable of not only defending itself against external enemies, but also going on the offensive. He inherited a good inheritance from his father, and in 1128 he combined under himself two of the four inheritances of the principality - Przemysl and Zvenigorod. In his actions, Vladimir relied on the support of the communities, but he made a special emphasis on the boyars, which at that time had almost become a separate aristocracy and began to emerge as a new political force. Together with the boyars, Vladimir possessed sufficient power, resources and troops to realize his main aspirations.

In 1140, Vladimir took part in another feud in Russia, speaking in support of Vsevolod Olgovich of Kiev against Izyaslav Mstislavich Volynsky. Here again, the factor of Rostislavich’s fear of strengthening someone in Volhynia played its role, but there was another reason: Prince Peremyshlsky sought to expand his own possessions, primarily at the expense of Volhynia. Nothing came of this venture, since Izyaslav Mstislavich turned out to be a more skilled commander and politician, which he will demonstrate in the future, having earned one of the first tsar’s title in Russia, so far only in correspondence. Despite the insignificant scope of this conflict, it will prove to be a prologue to a rather serious confrontation between these two Rurikovich in the future.

Prince Vasilko Rostislavich left behind his two sons - Ivan and Rostislav, who ruled in Galich and Terebovl respectively. The latter died before the 1140s, and his brother inherited his possessions, Ivan. Ivan himself died in 1141, leaving no heirs, as a result of which all lands, with the exception of Zvenigorod, were inherited by Vladimir Volodarevich. This was a great success, as it allowed for the first time in all time to unite almost all of Subcarpathia in one hand. Immediately after that, Vladimir thought about moving the capital: constant conflicts with the Poles over the border Przemysl caused a lot of problems. It required a capital, quite remote from the borders, but at the same time developed and rich. At that moment only Galich could become such a capital. The move there was made in the same year, and from that moment the history of the Principality of Galician principality begins with the capital in the city of the same name.

O 58ovi Volodarovi Rurikidu, knížovi Zvenigorodu-Peremyslovi (čeština)


https://en.topwar.ru/171611-kak-rostislavichi-svoe-knjazhestvo-uder...

Rostislavovi Vladimirovičovi, který byl zabit v Tmutarakanu, zbyli tři synové: Rurik, Volodar a Vasilko. Po smrti svého otce vyrůstali na dvoře svého strýce Yaropolka Izyaslaviče, který se od roku 1078 stal knížetem ve Vladimiru-Volynském. Bratři, stejně jako jejich otec, byli vyhnanci, neměli skutečnou moc, neměli vlastní jednotky, a pokud ano, pak v množství zjevně nedostatečné pro nezávislou politiku. Za stávajícího řádu věcí neočekávali nic výjimečného, ​​protože aktivně hledali způsoby, jak zlepšit své společenské postavení, respektive získat své dědictví v radě a přestat být závislí na příbuzných, kteří v bouřlivých situacích povstali nebo padli kotel politického života v té době v Rusku. Bylo obtížné to udělat legálními prostředky, protože hledání bylo prováděno nezákonnými způsoby, tj. Jen způsoby, jak odněkud vyhnat místní knížata a posadit se, abychom vládli sami.

Právě v té době se na území knížectví, zejména v jeho jižní části, které se říkalo Podkarpatsko, později stalo knížectví przemyslské a poté v Haliči začala vzrůstat nespokojenost. Místní komunity nebyly spokojeny s vládou Yaropolku, občanskými válkami, polskými posádkami ve velkých městech a mnoha dalšími. Ovlivnil také faktor oslabení moci kyjevského velkovévody, kvůli kterému se objevily tendence k oddělení nebo alespoň izolaci jednotlivých knížectví. Dědictví dob Vladimíra Velikého a Jaroslava Moudrého však stále bylo ovlivněno - místní komunity spojovaly svou budoucnost pouze s Rurikoviči, a proto potřebovali nějakého zástupce vládnoucí dynastie, aby dosáhli legitimity a případně posílili své schopnosti v budoucím boji o místo pod sluncem. V osobě Rostislavichů získalo místní obyvatelstvo tři knížata najednou. Bez podpory komunit měli Rurik, Volodar a Chrpa malou šanci na úspěch; navíc neexistují žádné informace o tom, že by měli jinou podporu zvenčí. Spojení tří bratrů a subkarpatských komunit se stalo přirozeným a dokonce nevyhnutelným.

V roce 1084, s využitím odchodu Yaropolka Izyaslaviče od Vladimíra, Rostislavičové odešli do měst Cherven a vzbouřili se tam proti princi. Podporoval je i Przemysl, v důsledku čehož páteř vojsk tří bratrů tvořila městské pluky (jinak je téměř nemožné vysvětlit vzhled jejich armády). Polské posádky byly vyhnány tváří v tvář nadřazeným silám a brzy nato byl Vladimir-Volynskij odvezen bez velkého krveprolití, který pravděpodobně jednoduše otevřel brány povstalcům. Yaropolk požádal o pomoc kyjevského prince a poslal svého syna Vladimíra Monomacha s cílem vrátit knížectví pod kontrolu jeho právoplatného vládce. Bylo možné znovu získat hlavní město knížectví, ale jeho jižní území, včetně velkých měst Przemysl, Zvenigorod a Terebovlyu, projevila vážný odpor. Nakonec byl Monomakh nucen vrátit se do Kyjeva a Yaropolk pokračoval v boji s Rostislavichy, během nichž zemřel - v roce 1086 byl zabit svým vlastním válečníkem Neradtsem. Vzhledem k tomu, že Neradec poté našel útočiště v Przemyslu, byli Rostislavičové obviněni z vraždy, ale bylo jim to jedno: spolu s komunitami tří velkých měst jihozápadního Ruska získali vydědění knížata ve svých vlastních rozlehlých a bohatých zemích jejich vlastnictví.

Rostislavičovo knížectví

Od roku 1086 bylo volynské knížectví, před tím, rozděleno na dvě části. Severnaya s hlavním městem Vladimir-Volynsky byla podle zákona o těžbě ovládána „legitimními“ vládci, s výjimkou města Dorogobuzh, které bylo v roce 1084 rozhodnutím kyjevského knížete převedeno na Davyda Igoreviče. Na jihu, poté, co si rozdělili majetky mezi sebou, začali vládnout Rostislavičové, kteří založili samostatnou větev Rurikovichů, později nazvanou První galicijská dynastie. Rurik jako starší bratr se stal nejvyšším vládcem nově vzniklého knížectví a usadil se v Przemysl. Jeho mladší bratři Volodar a Vasilko se posadili, aby vládli ve Zvenigorodu a Terebovle. Dědičnost v knížectví se odehrála v rámci této větve Rurikovičů, výměnou za to knížata získala významnou podporu od místních komunit, které pravidelně podřizovaly svá vojska pod velením Rostislavichů - jinak je těžké vysvětlit, jak se jim podařilo odrazit četné zásahy sousedů do zemí Przemysl.

Rurik zemřel v roce 1092 a nezanechal po sobě žádné děti. Volodar se stal knížetem v Przemysli, který se ukázal jako kníže s dlouhým životem a vládl tam až do roku 1124. Ukázalo se, že jeho vláda byla docela rušná. V roce 1097 se zúčastnil Lyubechského kongresu knížat, kde se stal blízkým přítelem Vladimíra Monomacha a dosáhl uznání jeho práv na Przemysl. To se nelíbilo princi Davydu Igorevičovi, který v té době začal vládnout Volyni: měl za to, že Rostislaviči ohrožuje jeho postavení a může ho vyzvat mocí nad knížectvím. Je možné, že Davydu podpořila komunita Vladimíra-Volynského, která ztrátou Podkarpatska ztratila část své moci a zisků.

Na straně Davyda Igoreviče stál kyjevský velkovévoda Svyatopolk Izyaslavich, který ve stejném roce unesl Volodarova mladšího bratra Vasilku a oslepil ho, což vyvolalo začátek nového sporu.

Ukázalo se však, že účinek oslepení Vasilka byl zcela opačný k tomu, co by mohlo pomoci příčině Davyda a Svyatopolka. Zprávy Volodara Rostislaviče o tomto zneužívání jeho mladšího bratra způsobily bouři rozhořčení. Komunita se také připojila k princi - Rostislavičové pro ni byli „vlastní“, a proto bylo oslepení Vasilky urážkou všech komun knížectví. Navíc nejmladší z Rostislaviči byl docela populární vládce; na počátku 90. let 20. století podnikl ve spojenectví s Poloveckými dlouhé cesty, včetně Polska, s velkými ambicemi a snažil se etablovat v Bulharsku. Lidé považovali takového prince za „svého“, a proto byli připraveni zapadnout do něj v plném rozsahu.

Davyd, který s sebou vzal oslepeného Vasilka, vtrhl na území Przemyslského knížectví a oblehl Terebovlyu, bývalé příhraniční město. Brzy však narazil na potíže - Volodarovi se podařilo rychle shromáždit značnou armádu a odvedl volynského prince do města Buzhsk, kde byl nucen obléhat. Situace Davyda se stala beznadějnou a výměnou za propuštění Vasilka mu bylo umožněno opustit město. Volodar to však nedovolil a oblehl volynského prince ve svém hlavním městě, městě Vladimir. Nakonec byl Davyd donucen uprchnout do Polska a hledat tam podporu. Rostislavičové začali chytat každého, kdo se nějakým způsobem podílel na slepotě Vasilky. Osobně je nepopravili, předali vinu do rukou obyvatel komunity, kteří sami trestali zločince věšením na stromech a střelbou z luků. Jednota rostislavičských a podkarpatských komunit v té době byla absolutní.

Válka znovu

Ruská knížata pobouřila historii oslepením Vasilky, a proto v roce 1098 shromáždili velkou armádu, která se přiblížila ke Kyjevu a donutila Svyatopolka Izyaslaviče, účastníka oslepování, potrestat hlavního viníka incidentu, Davyda Igoreviče. Neztratil čas, protože se s podporou Poláků dokázal vrátit do svého knížectví. Svyatopolk s nimi musel vyjednat neutralitu a poté obléhat Vladimira-Volynského, aby volynského prince potrestal. Pokud však došlo ke skutečným trestům, nebyla přijata žádná zvláštní opatření - Davyd Igorevič ve skutečnosti dobrovolně opustil město a rozhodl se vládnout v Chervenu a syn Svyatopolka Mstislav se posadil, aby vládl ve Vladimíru.

Po uplatnění své autority na Volyni nenašel Svyatopolk lepší nápad, jak ... pokračovat v kampani proti Rostislavichům! Mezitím se Davyd Igorevič nehodlal vzdát svých nároků vůči Volyni a aktivně hledal spojence. V důsledku toho došlo v jihozápadním Rusku k situaci, kdy byly vojenské operace vedeny mezi třemi samostatnými stranami, které mohly buď bojovat mezi sebou, nebo uzavírat krátkodobé spojenectví. První strana byla Rostislavičové, kteří hájili svůj majetek v knížectví Przemysl, druhá - princ Červenskij, Davyd Igorevič, který si nárokoval Vladimíra-Volynského, a třetí - velký princ Kyjeva Svyatopolk. Ten měl teoreticky největší příležitosti, ale dal svému synovi Mstislavovi vládnout ve Vladimiře, aniž by zohlednil názory místní komunity, v důsledku čehož k němu neměla velkou lásku. To v budoucnu nemohlo hrát roli ...

Kampaň Svyatopolka se svými syny proti Rostislavichům v roce 1099 skončila bitvou na poli Rozhny. Volodar a Vasilko, zvyklí bojovat za své zájmy společně s komunitou, zvítězili. Toto vítězství svého druhu bylo první, protože vojska kyjevského knížete byla poprvé poražena v bitvě ne o samotný Kyjev. Jeden ze synů Svyatopolka, Yaroslav, se stále nezastavil, a proto brzy zaútočil na území knížectví ze západu s podporou maďarského krále Colomana I., jeho příbuzného. Bylo to poprvé v dlouhé sérii intervencí maďarských králů do záležitostí jihozápadního Ruska. Bratři byli obležení, protože nemohli odolat velké maďarské armádě v poli.

Pozici zachránil Polovtsian Khan Bonyak, který současně působil jako spojenec Rostislaviče a Davyda Igoreviče. Maďarská vojska byla přepadena na řece Vagře a utrpěla těžkou porážku, kvůli které byli nuceni opustit území Przemyslského knížectví. Poté se Davyd Igorevič a Polovtsy přestěhovali do hlavního města Volyně. Město bylo bráněno hlavně navštěvujícími válečníky, což zdůrazňuje kroniku - samotní vladimané odmítli podporovat Mstislava Svyatopolchicha, který během obléhání zahynul na zdi. Pokus příznivců kyjevského prince pod vedením Davyda Svyatoslaviče (nezaměňovat s jeho jmenovkou!) Odemknout město se nezdařilo, v důsledku čehož byla obnovena kontrola Davyda Igoreviče nad Volynem.

V roce 1100 se v Uvetiči shromáždili ruská knížata, aby se dohodli na mírových podmínkách. Davyd Igorevič byl navzdory svým úspěchům stále zbaven Volynského knížectví, které bylo převedeno na Yaroslava Svyatopolchicha (ten, který před rokem přivedl Maďary do Ruska). Davydu však stále vlastnil řadu měst, z nichž hlavní byl Buzhsk. Samotný velkovévoda z Kyjeva, Svyatopolk, se stále pokoušel vrátit Podkarpatskou republiku do svého držení, a proto společně se svými spojenci a příznivci předložil Rostislavichům ultimátum - dát mu Terebovlju a zůstat vládnout pouze Przemyslovi, kterým byl připraven předat svou pánskou ruku volostovi. Jak přesně na to bratři odpověděli, není známo, ale faktem zůstává: Kyjevskému princi nic nedali. Samostatná existence Rostislavičova knížectví pokračovala.

Volodar, princ Peremyshlsky

Po roce 1100 mohl být Volodar považován za knížete Przemysla a všech zemí Podkarpatska s ještě větším právem, a ani princ z Kyjeva nemohl nějak oslabit moc Rostislavichů, kteří jednali v úzké spolupráci s místními komunitami. Ukázalo se, že princ je docela dobrý vládce, zručný diplomat, schopný plánovat dopředu a vidět výhody vztahů s některými z jeho příbuzných. Kromě toho dokonale chápal jak svou nejistou situaci, tak důležitost rozvoje jemu svěřených zemí, díky čemuž by jeho politika týkající se sporů v Rusku mohla být označena za úspěšnou. Rostislavichi se jich zúčastnil, ale dost zřídka, aniž by přilákal velké síly. Bylo učiněno vše pro zajištění rychlého rozvoje knížectví, jeho bezpečnosti a nezávislosti. Komunita měst Podkarpatska tuto politiku velmi ocenila a po celou dobu jeho vlády zůstala Volodarovi nezištně loajální.

Princ prováděl „zahraniční“ politiku poměrně pružně. Pro něj neexistovali zapřísáhlí nepřátelé ani věční přátelé. V roce 1101 se Volodar spolu s princem Černigovem Davydem Svyatoslavičem vydali na tažení proti Polákům, i když jen před pár lety byli, ne-li nepřáteli, jistě bojovali na opačných stranách barikád. Vztahy s Vladimírem Monomachem, který dostal podporu během jeho konfliktu v roce 1117 s volyňským princem Yaroslavem Svyatopolchichem, byly udržovány dostatečně teplé. To nezabránilo Volodarovi v roce 1123 podporovat stejného Jaroslava Svjatopolčiče ve válce proti synovi Monomacha Andreji, protože Rostislavičové se vážně obávali získání moci Vladimíra Monomacha na Volyni. V roce 1119, spolu s Polovtsy, princ Peremyshl šel do Byzance, sbírat bohatou kořist, a v roce 1122, během nájezdu na Poláky, byl zajat kvůli zradě svého guvernéra, v důsledku čehož musel Vasilk vykoupit starší bratr za velkou sumu peněz. Ze dvou Volodarových dcer byla jedna vdaná za syna Vladimíra Monomacha a druhá za syna byzantského císaře Alexeje I. Komnina.

Volodar zemřel v roce 1124 a ukázal se, i když nebyl velkým vládcem, ale určitě vynikajícím mezi mnoha dalšími. Skutečnost, že jednal v zájmu svého knížectví, a také vládl více než 30 let, umožnil Przemyslovskému knížectví do značné míry zesílit. Zákony obyčejného žebříku navíc neplatily pro Rostislavičovo knížectví. Tři velké osudy, Przemysl, Terebovlya a Zvenigorod, mohly být od nynějška pouze v držení Rostislavichiho. Z doby vlády knížete Volodara můžete počítat začátek budoucího galicijského knížectví jako samostatný od zbytku Ruska, silný a rozvinutý, s velkým potenciálem.

Nelze se zmínit o činnosti mladšího Rostislaviče. Vasilko nadále vládl Terebovlem až do své smrti ve stejném roce 1124. Během této doby se mu podařilo výrazně posílit hranici se stepí, usadit je s osadníky a založit řadu osad. Zároveň se postupně zlepšovaly vztahy s Polovci, kterým nemohly zabránit ani jejich pravidelné nájezdy na terebovskou zemi. Při expanzi na jih si dokonce udělal nároky na bulharská území a aktivně využíval nomády, kteří se chtěli usadit jako noví osadníci. Vasilk pravděpodobně patří k zásluhám v rychlém rozvoji jednoho z měst jeho země, které se v budoucnu stane hlavním městem celého knížectví - Galich, ve kterém se jeden z jeho synů posadil, aby vládl ihned po smrti Vasilka . Toto je však už trochu jiná doba ...

Vladimirko Volodarevič Po smrti Volodara Rostislaviče se vládcem v Przemysli stal jeho nejstarší syn Rostislav. Neměl nejjednodušší vztahy s Poláky - v roce 1122 se mu podařilo držet rukojmí, zajat po neúspěšné cestě do Polska, zatímco jeho otec sbíral výkupné, a již v roce 1124 se mu podařilo Przemysl bránit. Brzy měl také příležitost bojovat se svým mladším bratrem Vladimírem Volodarevičem, který se s pomocí Maďarů pokusil stát nejvyšším vládcem celého knížectví. Válka nevedla k ničemu, protože bratranci a Mstislav z Kyjeva podporovali prince. V roce 1128 však z neznámého důvodu Rostislav zemřel, aniž by zanechal dědice, a samotný Vladimír se stal knížetem v Przemyslu.

Vladimir Volodarevič byl energický, cílevědomý a panovačný člověk, nepočítaje přirozenou duplicitu, cynismus a bezzásadovost. Chtěl vytvořit centralizované a silné knížectví, schopné se nejen bránit před vnějšími nepřáteli, ale také útočit. Zdědil dobré dědictví po svém otci a v roce 1128 spojil pod sebou dva ze čtyř dědictví knížectví - Przemysl a Zvenigorod. Při svých činech se Vladimír spoléhal na podporu komunit, ale zvláštní důraz kladl na bojary, které se v té době téměř staly samostatnou aristokracií a začaly se objevovat jako nová politická síla. Spolu s bojary disponoval Vladimir dostatečnou mocí, zdroji a jednotkami k uskutečnění svých hlavních aspirací.

V roce 1140 se Vladimir zúčastnil dalšího sváru v Rusku, když hovořil na podporu Kyjeva Vsevoloda Olgovicha proti Izyaslavovi Mstislaviči Volynskému. I zde zde hrál roli Rostislavichův strach z posílení někoho na Volyni, ale měl to i další důvod: princ Peremyshlsky se snažil rozšířit svůj vlastní majetek, především na úkor Volyně. Z tohoto podniku se nic nestalo, protože Izyaslav Mstislavich se ukázal být zručnějším velitelem a politikem, což v budoucnu předvede, když získal jeden z prvních carských titulů v Rusku, zatím pouze v korespondenci. Navzdory nevýznamnému rozsahu tohoto konfliktu se v budoucnu ukáže, že je to prolog k poměrně vážné konfrontaci mezi těmito dvěma Rurikoviči.

Kníže Vasilko Rostislavič po sobě zanechal své dva syny - Ivana a Rostislava, kteří vládli v Galichu a Terebovlu. Ten zemřel před 40. lety 11. století a jeho bratr zdědil jeho majetek Ivan. Ivan sám zemřel v roce 1141 a nezanechal žádné dědice, v důsledku čehož všechny země, s výjimkou Zvenigorod, zdědil Vladimir Volodarevič. To byl velký úspěch, protože to poprvé v historii umožnilo spojit téměř celou Podkarpatskou republiku do jedné ruky. Bezprostředně po tom Vladimír přemýšlel o přesunu hlavního města: neustálé konflikty s Poláky přes hranice Przemysl způsobovaly mnoho problémů. Vyžadovalo to kapitál, docela vzdálený od hranic, ale zároveň rozvinutý a bohatý. V tu chvíli se takovým kapitálem mohl stát jen Galich. Tento krok byl proveden ve stejném roce a od té chvíle začíná historie knížectví galicijského knížectví u hlavního města ve městě stejného jména.

Počátky

Základy raně Lendian Grod a z Latinské kaple rotunda a Palatium komplexu postaveném Boleslav Chrabrý Polska v 11. století, spolu s pravoslavnou Tserkva postaven ve 12. století.

Przemyśl je druhým nejstarším městem (po Kraków ) v jižním Polsku, sahající až do přinejmenším 8. století, kdy byl pozemek opevněné Grod patřícího do Lendians ( Lendizi ), v západní slovanský kmen. V 9. století se hradiště a okolní region staly součástí Velké Moravy . Název města s největší pravděpodobností pochází z moravského období. Archeologické pozůstatky také svědčí o přítomnosti křesťanského klášterního osídlení již v 9. století.

Po invazi maďarských kmenů do srdce Velkomoravské říše kolem roku 899 místní Lendians deklarovali věrnost Maďarům. Tento region se poté stal místem sporu mezi Polskem , Rusem a Maďarskem počínaje přinejmenším v 9. století, přičemž Przemyśl spolu s dalšími Cherven Grods spadal pod kontrolu Polanů ( Polanie ), kteří by v 10. století byli pod vládou of Měška I založit polský stát. Město bylo zmíněno Nestorem Kronikářem , když ho v roce 981 zajal Vladimír I. z Ruska. V roce 1018 se Przemyśl vrátil do Polska a v roce 1031 jej znovu obsadil Rus. Kolem roku 1069 se Przemyśl znovu vrátil do Polska, poté, co Bolesław II. Velkorysý znovu obsadil město a dočasně z něj učinil své bydliště. V roce 1085 se město stalo hlavním městem Peremyshlského polosamostatného knížectví pod panstvím Rus .

Palatium komplex zahrnující Latinské rotunda byla postavena za vlády polského krále Boleslav Chrabrý v 11. století. Někdy před rokem 1218 byla ve městě založena pravoslavná eparchie . Przemyśl se později stal součástí království Haliče – Volyně .

This region was first mentioned in the medieval chronicle Povist’ vremennykh lit (Tale of Bygone Years), which described Grand Prince Volodymyr the Great ‘s war with the Poles in 981 and his annexation of Peremyshl and the Cherven towns to Kyivan Rus . In 992, Volodymyr marched on the White Croatians and annexed Subcarpathia . Thus, by the end of the 10th century all of Galicia’s territory was part of Kyivan Rus’, so under the direct control and influence of the hegemonic Principality of Kiev/Tchernigov and must be, from that time, considered as a feudal entity, subject to the Principality of Kiev/Tchernigov, whose Grand Prince was endowed with the perpetual right to always dispose of the final decision power on this particular territory.

After the death of Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise in 1054, Kyivan Rus’ began to fall apart into its component principalities.

From 1084 Yaroslav ‘s great-grandsons, Riuryk Rostyslavych ,Volodar Rostyslavych , and Vasylko Rostyslavych, ruled the lands of Peremyshl, Zvenyhorod , and Terebovlia.

Volodar’s son, Volodymyrko Volodarovych, inherited the Zvenyhorod principality in 1124, the Peremyshl principality in 1129, and Terebovlia principality and Halych land in 1141; he made princely Halych his capital. Volodymyrko’s son, Yaroslav Osmomysl , the pre-eminent prince of the Rostyslavych dynasty, enlarged Halych principality during his reign (1153–87) to encompass all the lands between the Carpathian Mountains and the Dnister River as far south as the lower Danube River. Trade and salt mining stimulated the rise of a powerful boyar estate in Galicia. The boyars often opposed the policies and plans of the Galician princes and undermined their rule by provoking internal strife and supporting foreign intervention. When Volodymyr Yaroslavych, the last prince of the Rostyslavych dynasty, died in 1199, the boyars invited Prince Roman Mstyslavych of Volhynia to take the throne. Roman Mstyslavych united Galicia with Volhynia and thus created the Principality of Galicia-Volhynia. It was ruled by the Rus’ dynasty until 1340. The period from 1205 to 1238 in the Galician-Volhynian state was one of further intervention by Hungary and Poland, of internal strife among the appanage princes and the boyars, and hence of economic decline. During the reign of Danylo Romanovych (1238–64), however, Galicia-Volhynia flourished, despite the Mongol invasion of 1240–1. Danylo Romanovych promoted the development of existing towns and built new ones (Lviv, Kholm , and others), furthered the status of his allies (the burghers ), and subdued the rebellious boyars. Using diplomacy and dynastic ties with Europe’s rulers, he strove to stem the Mongol expansion. The Galicia-Volhynian state flourished under Danylo Romanovych’s successors. In 1272 Lviv became the capital, and in 1303 Halych metropoly was founded. But resurgent boyar defiance, the Mongol presence, and the territorial ambitions of Poland and Hungary took their toll. The Romanovych dynasty came to an end in 1340 when boyars poisonedPrince Yurii II Boleslav , and rivalry among the rulers of Poland, Hungary, Lithuania , and the Mongols for possession of Galicia and Volhynia ensued. The Polish era. The struggle lasted until 1387. In 1340 King Casimir III the Great of Poland attacked Lviv and departed with the Galician-Volhynian regalia. A boyar oligarchy ruled Galicia under the leadership of Dmytro Dedko until 1349, when Casimir again invaded and progressively occupied it. In 1370 Casimir’s nephew, Louis I the Great of Hungary, also became the king of Poland; he appointed Prince Władysław Opolczyk in 1372 and Hungarian vicegerents from 1378 to govern Galicia. After the marriage of Grand Duke Jagiełło of Lithuania and Louis’s daughter, Queen Jadwiga of Poland, and the resulting dynastic union in 1386, an agreement was reached whereby Galicia and the Kholm region were acquired from Hungary by Poland, and Volhynia became part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania .

Under Polish rule, Galicia was known at first as the ‘Rus’ land’ or Red Rus’ and was administered by a starosta , or vicegerent, appointed by the king. Roman Catholic dioceses were established in Peremyshl , Halych , and Kholm and were granted large estates and government subsidies. In 1365 a Catholic archdiocese was founded in Halych; it was transferred to Lviv in 1414. In the early 15th century, the region was renamed Rus’ voivodeship . Its capital became Lviv, and it was divided into four lands: Lviv, Halych, Peremyshl, and Sianik ; in the 16th century, the Kholm region was also incorporated. In 1434, Rus’ law , based on Ruskaia Pravda , was abolished in Galicia and replaced by Polish law and the Polish administrative system. Land was distributed among the nobility , who proceeded to build up latifundia and to subject and exploit the peasants .

From 1452 to 1569 Volhynia was a province of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania consisting of Volodymyr-Volynskyi, Lutsk, and Kremianets starostv. It came under increasing Polish administrative and economic influence, but maintained the church traditions, customs, and way of life of the Princely era. In the 15th and 16th centuries the princely and noble families led a continuing struggle against the Tartars, consolidated their privileged positions in society. As the Turks and Tartars blocked access to the Mediterranean markets, Volhynia strengthened its trade with the Baltic ports. In the 16th century the flow of Polish nobles and tradesmen into Volhynia, which was one of the most densely populated Ukrainian regions, increased. As Polish influence grew, the condition of the Volhynian peasantry became more difficult.

After the Union of Lublin (1569) Volhynia became a Polish crown voivodeship without losing its internal autonomy and Ukrainian character. The union, however, accelerated the Polonization of the administration and the upper estates of Volhynia. The struggle against Roman Catholicism and the Ukrainian national-cultural movement at the beginning of the 17th century was expressed in the writings of the opponents and the supporters of the Church Union of Berestia (1596) (see Polemical literature ), the Orthodox opposition to the Reformation in Hoshcha , Lutsk, and elsewhere, the activities of the Orthodox brotherhoods in Ostrih , Volodymyr-Volynskyi , and Lutsk (see Lutsk Brotherhood of the Elevation of the Cross ), and the founding of the Ostrih Academy , schools in Volodymyr-Volynskyi, Lutsk, Dubno , and elsewhere, and printing presses in Ostrih, Pochaiv , Derman, Kremianets , Kostiantyniv, and Chetvertnia. The insurrections of Kryshtof Kosynsky (1591–3) and Severyn Nalyvaiko (1595) received wide support in Volhynia. During Bohdan Khmelnytsky ‘s uprising rebel groups led by MaksymKryvonis, I. Donets, and M. Tyt were active there. Some of the battles of the Cossack-Polish War of 1648–57 took place in Volhynia (Zbarazh , Vyshnevets, Brody , and, most notably, the Battle of Berestechko ). Nevertheless Volhynia never became part of the Hetman state but remained a province of Poland

Major social changes occurred in Volhynia and Galicia. Boyars who refused to convert to Catholicism forfeited their estates. Many resettled in the Lithuanian lands; those who did not became impoverished, déclassé petty gentry and, with time, commoners. Certain boyars received royal privileges; they gradually renounced their Orthodox faith and stopped speaking Ukrainian, and became instead Polonized Catholics. The tendency to assimilate permeated all of Galicia’s upper strata and was particularly prominent in the second half of the 16th century; by the end of the 17th century most of the Ukrainian nobility had become Polonized. At the same time Ukrainian merchants and artisans were deprived of their rights by the now favored Polish Catholic burghers who colonized the towns and received official positions and privileges granted solely to them by Magdeburg law. Polish government circles encouraged the inflow of Polish and foreign nobles and Catholicpeasants into Volhynia and Galicia. The number of Poles, Germans, Armenians, and (later) Jews increased in the towns, where they established separate communities. The government’s discrimination and limitations imposed by the guilds on the Ukrainian burghers provoked them to form brotherhoods to defend their rights towards the end of the 16th century. In the 16th century corvée was introduced in the Polish Commonwealth. This excessive exploitation of peasant labor, which in many cases became actual slavery, led to peasant uprisings, among them the Mukha rebellion of 1490–2. Many peasants also escaped from the oppression to the steppe frontier of central Ukraine. The Orthodox church, which had the support of the Ukrainian masses, had played an important role in Galicia. Yet the separate existence of Halych metropoly had been opposed from 1330 on by the metropolitans of Kyiv, who resided in Moscow. Halych metropoly therefore had no hierarch in the years 1355–70 and was abolished in 1401. Halych eparchy had no bishop from 1406 to 1539. At the end of the 16th century, in response to the Roman Catholic threat as well as the Reformation, a Ukrainian Orthodox religious and cultural revival began. The defense of Ukrainian interests was assumed by the aforementioned brotherhoods. One of the first was the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood , which existed as early as 1463, but whose earnest activity began in the 1580s, when it received Stauropegion status and founded a school (Lviv Dormition Brotherhood School ), printing press (Lviv Dormition Brotherhood Press ) and hospital. Brotherhoods were founded in many other towns in Galicia using the one in Lviv as the model. Because of the brotherhoods, Galicia became an important center of Ukrainian cultural and religious life. The Lviv brotherhood, for example, nurtured such major Ukrainian figures as Petro Konashevych-Sahaidachny , Yov Boretsky , Yelysei Pletenetsky , Zakhariia Kopystensky , and Petro Mohyla . After the 1596 Church Union of Berestia established the Ruthenian Uniate church, a long period of bitter internal strife between the Ukrainian Orthodox opponents of the union and its Uniate supporters ensued. (See History of the Ukrainian church and Polemical literature .) The Orthodox church lost its official status, which was not restored by the Polish king until 1632, and Galicia’s role as the bastion of Ukrainian Orthodoxy was eclipsed. When the efforts of the leaders of the Hetman state to unite all the Ukrainian territories failed, the Orthodox hierarchs inGalicia and the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood accepted the church union, and in 1709 Uniate Catholicism became the only faith practiced by Galicia’s Ukrainians .

After the war there were other manifestations of support for pan-Ukrainian political unity by Galicia’s Ukrainians, but not on a mass scale. Galicia remained primarily a theater where the Cossack and Polish armies clashed; consequently, much of its population fled and settled in the Hetman state and Slobidska Ukraine . In the Polish era, popular reaction to Polish rule and oppression in Galicia also took the form of social banditry. The brigands, called opryshoks, were particularly active in Subcarpathia andPokutia from the 16th to the 19th century; their most famous leader was Oleksa Dovbush . From the second half of the 17th century, Poland experienced a series of wars and political, social, andeconomic crises leading to a general weakening of the regime that its neighbors (Austria, Prussia, and Russia) exploited. In 1772 the first partition of Poland occurred and a part of Galicia was annexed by the Austrian Empire forming the Kingdom of Galicia-Lodomeria, an satellite Habsburg stat . After the fall of the Austrian Empire, as a consequence of World War I and then World War II, Galicia an Volyinia fell under the influence of USSR. From 1992 they belongs to the Republic of Ukraine and nowadays they are the seat of the respective Princely and Grand Ducal House restored as moral entity by the House of the Princes of Kiev (nominal titulars of the original Galicia-Volhynia Principality, since 1054)

Vasylko Rostyslavych (Vasyly; ca 1066–28.02.1124) – Prince of Terebovlia (early 1090 s – 1124), the third son of the founder of the Halych princely dynasty Rostyslav Volodymyrovych of Tmutorokan and Lanka, daughter of King Béla I of Hungary.

Born probably in Tmutorokan. After the death of his father (1067) together with elder brothers was evicted from the city. The Prince-outcast served at the court of the Prince Yaropolk Iziaslavych of Volyn. J. Dlugosz states that Vasylko headed troops in the border conflict with Poland in 1081. After his elder brother Riurik became established in Peremyshl (now Przemyśl, Poland), moved to him, strengthened his positions in Halych lands and got the Terebovlia Principality. Fought actively for the retention of Halych lands by the Rostyslavychi.

During the Polish-Halych war of 1091–1092, with the assistance of the Pechenegs and Torks he inflicted several blows on the Poles. Initiated the development of the Dnister lower reaches. Took part in the battle of 1091 at the bank of the River Maritsa where Emperor Alexius I Komnenos, along with Polovtsian Khans Tugorkan and Boniak, crushed the Pecheneg army. It was after that battle that the Pechenegs disappeared gradually, instead the Polovtsians became the rulers of the steppe. In 1097 he took part in the Liubech Congress of Princes. When the Congress ended, Vasylko, foully slandered by the Prince Davyd Ihorovych of Volyn, was treacherously captured and blinded by order of Kyivan Prince Sviatopolk Iziaslavych near Kyiv (now the village of Bilohorodka, Kyiv-Sviatoshyne District, Kyiv Oblast). These events are reproduced in The Tale ofBlinding of Vasylko of Terebovlia (1097).

Blind Vasylko successfully ruled his principality under the extremely adverse circumstances. In 1099 he, together with his brother Volodar, defeated troops of Kyivan and Smolensk Princes in the battle at Rozhne Pole (west of the town of Zolochiv, Lviv region). That same year at the River Vihor, near Peremyshl, with the assistance of the Polovtsian Khan Boniak the Rostyslavychi defeated the Hungarian army headed by Prince Koloman.

Together with the Polovtsians and some Rus princes Vasylko Rostyslavych waged several campaigns against Poland. The chronicle compiled by a Peremyshl burgher in the 16 th c. tells under the year of 1089 that Prince Vasylko Rostyslavych with the Polovtsians invaded Polish lands, burnt down many castles and captured many Poles.

According to the decision of the Vytychiv Congress of 1100, Vasylko Rostyslavych was deprived of Terebovlia, but he did not submit to such decision and remained in the town. In 1118 Vasylko Rostyslavych and Volodar helped the Prince Volodymyr Monomakh of Kyiv to restrain Yaroslav Sviatopolchych; in 1122 Vasylko ransomed Volodar from the Polish captivity.

In 1123 he was an ally of Prince Yaroslav Sviatopolchych, aiding in his struggle against Andriy Volodymyrovych, son of Prince Volodymyr Monomakh, in Volodymyr. Kyivan princes had to reckon with Vasylko Rostyslavych. Rostyslavych Vasylko Rostyslavych Vasylko Prince of Terebovlia 1066—02/28/1124

Volodar Rostislavich of Peremyshl, Prince of Peremyshl, Prince of Zvenigorod (Halych), was born 1065 to Rostislav Vladimirovich of Tmutarakan (c1038-1067) and Anna Lanke of Hungary (1047-1095) and died 19 March 1124 of unspecified causes. Notable ancestors include Charlemagne (747-814). Ancestors are from Russia, Ukraine, Germany, France, Belgium, the Byzantine Empire, Sweden.

Volodar Rostislavich was Prince of Zvenigorod (1085-1092) and Prince of Peremyshl (1092-1124). He was the great-grandson of Yaroslav the Wise and the son of Rostislav Vladimirovich of Tmutarakan. He was the grandfather Yaroslav Vladimirovich Osmomysl. 

On the death of his father in 1067, Volodar and his brothers Rurik and Vasilko were expelled from Tmutarakan. They resided in Vladimir-Volynsky at the court of Yaropolk Izyaslavich. Together with his brothers ran away from him and took possession of the lands in the Carpathian region. In 1086 Yaropolk, entered into an alliance with Vsevolod Yaroslavich and was killed during the campaign against Rostislav.

The Council of Lyubech (1097) secured the Principality of Peremyshl for Volodar. In 1099 is a new attempt of the Grand Prince of Kiev Svyatopolk Izyaslavich) to establish control over the south-western Russian lands, but Volodar and his brothers won, and then, during the invasion of the Hungarians, Volodar defended Peremyshl. The Hungarians were defeated by his allies: Davyd Igorevich and Cumans in the Battle of the Wiar River).

In 1117 Volodar and Vasilko and fought in alliance with Vladimir Monomakh and Davyd Svyatoslavich against Yaroslav Svyatopolchik. The allies besieged Vladimir-Volynsky and forced the prince to surrender.

In 1119 Volodar participated together with the Hungarians in the campaign against Byzantium and returned with a rich booty.

In 1122 Volodar went to war against the Poles, ravaged many areas, took a lot of production, but because of the treachery of its governor Petrona was in Polish captivity. Vasilko had to collect a large ransom in 2000 hryvnia silver to redeem his brother from captivity.

In 1123 Volodar with his brother, Hungarians, Poles and Czechs were on the side of Yaroslav Svyatopolchik and besieged Andrei Vladimirovich in Vladimir-Volynsky. After Yaroslav's death the allies broke the siege.

He was buried in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Przemyśl

Volodar Rostyslavych, Volodar Rostislavich (Ukrainian: Володар Ростиславич, Russian: Володарь Ростиславич) (died 1124) was Prince of Zvenyhorod (1085–92) and Peremyshl' (1092–97).

Zvenyhorod depicted on the map (of 1190) as Zvenyhorod in P. of Halicz (light green). He actively was involved in the Polish internal affairs. Volodar also waged a war against the Grand Prince of Kiev Sviatopolk II of Kiev and his son Yaroslav.

His father was Rostislav of Tmutarakan; his son was Volodymyrko of Halych, father of Yaroslav Osmomysl.

Today there is confusion between two localities of former Zvenyhorod city, one being located in Pustomyty Raion near Lviv and another in Borshchiv or Buchach Raion (2 in Ternopil Oblast). The map on the left shows one east of Halych (pol. Halicz), which is one in the Ternopil Oblast, while the official Ukrainian historiography claims the one near Lviv, which would be located north of Halych.

Od roku 1138 - Halych:

První (sporná) písemná zmínka z maďarské kroniky pochází z roku 898, údaje slovanského Ipaťjevského letopisu pocházejí z roku 1138. Od roku 1144 zde sídlilo Haličské knížectví, v letech 1238–1272 pak bylo město sídlem celého Haličsko-volyňského knížectví. Město Halyč tak dalo název celému regionu Halič (ukrajinsky Halyčyna), který je dnes rozdělen mezi Polsko a Ukrajinu. Během 14. století se místo vylidnilo a současné městečko Halyč vzniklo o zhruba 5 km dále.

Původ názvu je nejasný; někteří slavisté jej dávají do souvislosti se slovem halka (kavka), což by odpovídalo vyobrazení kavky na znaku města. Kavka figurovala ve znaku Haličského království až do roku 1918.

This region was first mentioned in the medieval chronicle Povist’ vremennykh lit (Tale of Bygone Years), which described Grand Prince Volodymyr the Great ‘s war with the Poles in 981 and his annexation of Peremyshl and the Cherven towns to Kyivan Rus . In 992, Volodymyr marched on the White Croatians and annexed Subcarpathia . Thus, by the end of the 10th century all of Galicia’s territory was part of Kyivan Rus’, so under the direct control and influence of the hegemonic Principality of Kiev/Tchernigov and must be, from that time, considered as a feudal entity, subject to the Principality of Kiev/Tchernigov, whose Grand Prince was endowed with the perpetual right to always dispose of the final decision power on this particular territory.

After the death of Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise in 1054, Kyivan Rus’ began to fall apart into its component principalities.

From 1084 Yaroslav ‘s great-grandsons, Riuryk Rostyslavych ,Volodar Rostyslavych , and Vasylko Rostyslavych, ruled the lands of Peremyshl, Zvenyhorod , and Terebovlia.

Volodar’s son, Volodymyrko Volodarovych, inherited the Zvenyhorod principality in 1124, the Peremyshl principality in 1129, and Terebovlia principality and Halych land in 1141; he made princely Halych his capital. Volodymyrko’s son, Yaroslav Osmomysl , the pre-eminent prince of the Rostyslavych dynasty, enlarged Halych principality during his reign (1153–87) to encompass all the lands between the Carpathian Mountains and the Dnister River as far south as the lower Danube River. Trade and salt mining stimulated the rise of a powerful boyar estate in Galicia. The boyars often opposed the policies and plans of the Galician princes and undermined their rule by provoking internal strife and supporting foreign intervention. When Volodymyr Yaroslavych, the last prince of the Rostyslavych dynasty, died in 1199, the boyars invited Prince Roman Mstyslavych of Volhynia to take the throne. Roman Mstyslavych united Galicia with Volhynia and thus created the Principality of Galicia-Volhynia. It was ruled by the Rus’ dynasty until 1340. The period from 1205 to 1238 in the Galician-Volhynian state was one of further intervention by Hungary and Poland, of internal strife among the appanage princes and the boyars, and hence of economic decline. During the reign of Danylo Romanovych (1238–64), however, Galicia-Volhynia flourished, despite the Mongol invasion of 1240–1. Danylo Romanovych promoted the development of existing towns and built new ones (Lviv, Kholm , and others), furthered the status of his allies (the burghers ), and subdued the rebellious boyars. Using diplomacy and dynastic ties with Europe’s rulers, he strove to stem the Mongol expansion. The Galicia-Volhynian state flourished under Danylo Romanovych’s successors. In 1272 Lviv became the capital, and in 1303 Halych metropoly was founded. But resurgent boyar defiance, the Mongol presence, and the territorial ambitions of Poland and Hungary took their toll. The Romanovych dynasty came to an end in 1340 when boyars poisonedPrince Yurii II Boleslav , and rivalry among the rulers of Poland, Hungary, Lithuania , and the Mongols for possession of Galicia and Volhynia ensued. The Polish era. The struggle lasted until 1387. In 1340 King Casimir III the Great of Poland attacked Lviv and departed with the Galician-Volhynian regalia. A boyar oligarchy ruled Galicia under the leadership of Dmytro Dedko until 1349, when Casimir again invaded and progressively occupied it. In 1370 Casimir’s nephew, Louis I the Great of Hungary, also became the king of Poland; he appointed Prince Władysław Opolczyk in 1372 and Hungarian vicegerents from 1378 to govern Galicia. After the marriage of Grand Duke Jagiełło of Lithuania and Louis’s daughter, Queen Jadwiga of Poland, and the resulting dynastic union in 1386, an agreement was reached whereby Galicia and the Kholm region were acquired from Hungary by Poland, and Volhynia became part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania .

Under Polish rule, Galicia was known at first as the ‘Rus’ land’ or Red Rus’ and was administered by a starosta , or vicegerent, appointed by the king. Roman Catholic dioceses were established in Peremyshl , Halych , and Kholm and were granted large estates and government subsidies. In 1365 a Catholic archdiocese was founded in Halych; it was transferred to Lviv in 1414. In the early 15th century, the region was renamed Rus’ voivodeship . Its capital became Lviv, and it was divided into four lands: Lviv, Halych, Peremyshl, and Sianik ; in the 16th century, the Kholm region was also incorporated. In 1434, Rus’ law , based on Ruskaia Pravda , was abolished in Galicia and replaced by Polish law and the Polish administrative system. Land was distributed among the nobility , who proceeded to build up latifundia and to subject and exploit the peasants .

From 1452 to 1569 Volhynia was a province of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania consisting of Volodymyr-Volynskyi, Lutsk, and Kremianets starostv. It came under increasing Polish administrative and economic influence, but maintained the church traditions, customs, and way of life of the Princely era. In the 15th and 16th centuries the princely and noble families led a continuing struggle against the Tartars, consolidated their privileged positions in society. As the Turks and Tartars blocked access to the Mediterranean markets, Volhynia strengthened its trade with the Baltic ports. In the 16th century the flow of Polish nobles and tradesmen into Volhynia, which was one of the most densely populated Ukrainian regions, increased. As Polish influence grew, the condition of the Volhynian peasantry became more difficult.

After the Union of Lublin (1569) Volhynia became a Polish crown voivodeship without losing its internal autonomy and Ukrainian character. The union, however, accelerated the Polonization of the administration and the upper estates of Volhynia. The struggle against Roman Catholicism and the Ukrainian national-cultural movement at the beginning of the 17th century was expressed in the writings of the opponents and the supporters of the Church Union of Berestia (1596) (see Polemical literature ), the Orthodox opposition to the Reformation in Hoshcha , Lutsk, and elsewhere, the activities of the Orthodox brotherhoods in Ostrih , Volodymyr-Volynskyi , and Lutsk (see Lutsk Brotherhood of the Elevation of the Cross ), and the founding of the Ostrih Academy , schools in Volodymyr-Volynskyi, Lutsk, Dubno , and elsewhere, and printing presses in Ostrih, Pochaiv , Derman, Kremianets , Kostiantyniv, and Chetvertnia. The insurrections of Kryshtof Kosynsky (1591–3) and Severyn Nalyvaiko (1595) received wide support in Volhynia. During Bohdan Khmelnytsky ‘s uprising rebel groups led by MaksymKryvonis, I. Donets, and M. Tyt were active there. Some of the battles of the Cossack-Polish War of 1648–57 took place in Volhynia (Zbarazh , Vyshnevets, Brody , and, most notably, the Battle of Berestechko ). Nevertheless Volhynia never became part of the Hetman state but remained a province of Poland

Major social changes occurred in Volhynia and Galicia. Boyars who refused to convert to Catholicism forfeited their estates. Many resettled in the Lithuanian lands; those who did not became impoverished, déclassé petty gentry and, with time, commoners. Certain boyars received royal privileges; they gradually renounced their Orthodox faith and stopped speaking Ukrainian, and became instead Polonized Catholics. The tendency to assimilate permeated all of Galicia’s upper strata and was particularly prominent in the second half of the 16th century; by the end of the 17th century most of the Ukrainian nobility had become Polonized. At the same time Ukrainian merchants and artisans were deprived of their rights by the now favored Polish Catholic burghers who colonized the towns and received official positions and privileges granted solely to them by Magdeburg law. Polish government circles encouraged the inflow of Polish and foreign nobles and Catholicpeasants into Volhynia and Galicia. The number of Poles, Germans, Armenians, and (later) Jews increased in the towns, where they established separate communities. The government’s discrimination and limitations imposed by the guilds on the Ukrainian burghers provoked them to form brotherhoods to defend their rights towards the end of the 16th century. In the 16th century corvée was introduced in the Polish Commonwealth. This excessive exploitation of peasant labor, which in many cases became actual slavery, led to peasant uprisings, among them the Mukha rebellion of 1490–2. Many peasants also escaped from the oppression to the steppe frontier of central Ukraine. The Orthodox church, which had the support of the Ukrainian masses, had played an important role in Galicia. Yet the separate existence of Halych metropoly had been opposed from 1330 on by the metropolitans of Kyiv, who resided in Moscow. Halych metropoly therefore had no hierarch in the years 1355–70 and was abolished in 1401. Halych eparchy had no bishop from 1406 to 1539. At the end of the 16th century, in response to the Roman Catholic threat as well as the Reformation, a Ukrainian Orthodox religious and cultural revival began. The defense of Ukrainian interests was assumed by the aforementioned brotherhoods. One of the first was the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood , which existed as early as 1463, but whose earnest activity began in the 1580s, when it received Stauropegion status and founded a school (Lviv Dormition Brotherhood School ), printing press (Lviv Dormition Brotherhood Press ) and hospital. Brotherhoods were founded in many other towns in Galicia using the one in Lviv as the model. Because of the brotherhoods, Galicia became an important center of Ukrainian cultural and religious life. The Lviv brotherhood, for example, nurtured such major Ukrainian figures as Petro Konashevych-Sahaidachny , Yov Boretsky , Yelysei Pletenetsky , Zakhariia Kopystensky , and Petro Mohyla . After the 1596 Church Union of Berestia established the Ruthenian Uniate church, a long period of bitter internal strife between the Ukrainian Orthodox opponents of the union and its Uniate supporters ensued. (See History of the Ukrainian church and Polemical literature .) The Orthodox church lost its official status, which was not restored by the Polish king until 1632, and Galicia’s role as the bastion of Ukrainian Orthodoxy was eclipsed. When the efforts of the leaders of the Hetman state to unite all the Ukrainian territories failed, the Orthodox hierarchs inGalicia and the Lviv Dormition Brotherhood accepted the church union, and in 1709 Uniate Catholicism became the only faith practiced by Galicia’s Ukrainians .

After the war there were other manifestations of support for pan-Ukrainian political unity by Galicia’s Ukrainians, but not on a mass scale. Galicia remained primarily a theater where the Cossack and Polish armies clashed; consequently, much of its population fled and settled in the Hetman state and Slobidska Ukraine . In the Polish era, popular reaction to Polish rule and oppression in Galicia also took the form of social banditry. The brigands, called opryshoks, were particularly active in Subcarpathia andPokutia from the 16th to the 19th century; their most famous leader was Oleksa Dovbush . From the second half of the 17th century, Poland experienced a series of wars and political, social, andeconomic crises leading to a general weakening of the regime that its neighbors (Austria, Prussia, and Russia) exploited. In 1772 the first partition of Poland occurred and a part of Galicia was annexed by the Austrian Empire forming the Kingdom of Galicia-Lodomeria, an satellite Habsburg stat . After the fall of the Austrian Empire, as a consequence of World War I and then World War II, Galicia an Volyinia fell under the influence of USSR. From 1992 they belongs to the Republic of Ukraine and nowadays they are the seat of the respective Princely and Grand Ducal House restored as moral entity by the House of the Princes of Kiev (nominal titulars of the original Galicia-Volhynia Principality, since 1054)

Vasylko Rostyslavych (Vasyly; ca 1066–28.02.1124) – Prince of Terebovlia (early 1090 s – 1124), the third son of the founder of the Halych princely dynasty Rostyslav Volodymyrovych of Tmutorokan and Lanka, daughter of King Béla I of Hungary.

Born probably in Tmutorokan. After the death of his father (1067) together with elder brothers was evicted from the city. The Prince-outcast served at the court of the Prince Yaropolk Iziaslavych of Volyn. J. Dlugosz states that Vasylko headed troops in the border conflict with Poland in 1081. After his elder brother Riurik became established in Peremyshl (now Przemyśl, Poland), moved to him, strengthened his positions in Halych lands and got the Terebovlia Principality. Fought actively for the retention of Halych lands by the Rostyslavychi.

During the Polish-Halych war of 1091–1092, with the assistance of the Pechenegs and Torks he inflicted several blows on the Poles. Initiated the development of the Dnister lower reaches. Took part in the battle of 1091 at the bank of the River Maritsa where Emperor Alexius I Komnenos, along with Polovtsian Khans Tugorkan and Boniak, crushed the Pecheneg army. It was after that battle that the Pechenegs disappeared gradually, instead the Polovtsians became the rulers of the steppe. In 1097 he took part in the Liubech Congress of Princes. When the Congress ended, Vasylko, foully slandered by the Prince Davyd Ihorovych of Volyn, was treacherously captured and blinded by order of Kyivan Prince Sviatopolk Iziaslavych near Kyiv (now the village of Bilohorodka, Kyiv-Sviatoshyne District, Kyiv Oblast). These events are reproduced in The Tale ofBlinding of Vasylko of Terebovlia (1097).

Blind Vasylko successfully ruled his principality under the extremely adverse circumstances. In 1099 he, together with his brother Volodar, defeated troops of Kyivan and Smolensk Princes in the battle at Rozhne Pole (west of the town of Zolochiv, Lviv region). That same year at the River Vihor, near Peremyshl, with the assistance of the Polovtsian Khan Boniak the Rostyslavychi defeated the Hungarian army headed by Prince Koloman.

Together with the Polovtsians and some Rus princes Vasylko Rostyslavych waged several campaigns against Poland. The chronicle compiled by a Peremyshl burgher in the 16 th c. tells under the year of 1089 that Prince Vasylko Rostyslavych with the Polovtsians invaded Polish lands, burnt down many castles and captured many Poles.

According to the decision of the Vytychiv Congress of 1100, Vasylko Rostyslavych was deprived of Terebovlia, but he did not submit to such decision and remained in the town. In 1118 Vasylko Rostyslavych and Volodar helped the Prince Volodymyr Monomakh of Kyiv to restrain Yaroslav Sviatopolchych; in 1122 Vasylko ransomed Volodar from the Polish captivity.

In 1123 he was an ally of Prince Yaroslav Sviatopolchych, aiding in his struggle against Andriy Volodymyrovych, son of Prince Volodymyr Monomakh, in Volodymyr. Kyivan princes had to reckon with Vasylko Rostyslavych. Rostyslavych Vasylko Rostyslavych Vasylko Prince of Terebovlia 1066—02/28/1124

https://familypedia.wikia.org/wiki/Volodar_Rostislavich_of_Peremyshl_(1065-1124)

Volodar Rostislavich of Peremyshl, Prince of Peremyshl, Prince of Zvenigorod (Halych), was born 1065 to Rostislav Vladimirovich of Tmutarakan (c1038-1067) and Anna Lanke of Hungary (1047-1095) and died 19 March 1124 of unspecified causes. Notable ancestors include Charlemagne (747-814). Ancestors are from Russia, Ukraine, Germany, France, Belgium, the Byzantine Empire, Sweden.

Volodar Rostislavich was Prince of Zvenigorod (1085-1092) and Prince of Peremyshl (1092-1124). He was the great-grandson of Yaroslav the Wise and the son of Rostislav Vladimirovich of Tmutarakan. He was the grandfather Yaroslav Vladimirovich Osmomysl. 

On the death of his father in 1067, Volodar and his brothers Rurik and Vasilko were expelled from Tmutarakan. They resided in Vladimir-Volynsky at the court of Yaropolk Izyaslavich. Together with his brothers ran away from him and took possession of the lands in the Carpathian region. In 1086 Yaropolk, entered into an alliance with Vsevolod Yaroslavich and was killed during the campaign against Rostislav.

The Council of Lyubech (1097) secured the Principality of Peremyshl for Volodar. In 1099 is a new attempt of the Grand Prince of Kiev Svyatopolk Izyaslavich) to establish control over the south-western Russian lands, but Volodar and his brothers won, and then, during the invasion of the Hungarians, Volodar defended Peremyshl. The Hungarians were defeated by his allies: Davyd Igorevich and Cumans in the Battle of the Wiar River).

In 1117 Volodar and Vasilko and fought in alliance with Vladimir Monomakh and Davyd Svyatoslavich against Yaroslav Svyatopolchik. The allies besieged Vladimir-Volynsky and forced the prince to surrender.

In 1119 Volodar participated together with the Hungarians in the campaign against Byzantium and returned with a rich booty.

In 1122 Volodar went to war against the Poles, ravaged many areas, took a lot of production, but because of the treachery of its governor Petrona was in Polish captivity. Vasilko had to collect a large ransom in 2000 hryvnia silver to redeem his brother from captivity.

In 1123 Volodar with his brother, Hungarians, Poles and Czechs were on the side of Yaroslav Svyatopolchik and besieged Andrei Vladimirovich in Vladimir-Volynsky. After Yaroslav's death the allies broke the siege.

How Rostislavich kept their principality

Alas, no better cards were found. All maps of Southwest Russia found on the network are given mainly from the time of the Romanovichs, something that was not bearable in the XI-XII century could not be found

Rostislav Vladimirovich, who was killed in Tmutarakan, had three sons left: Rurik, Volodar and Vasilko. After the death of their father, they grew up at the court of their cousin uncle, Yaropolk Izyaslavich, who from 1078 became prince in Vladimir-Volynsky. The brothers, like their father, were outcasts, did not have real power, did not have their own squads, and if they did, then in quantities clearly insufficient for independent politics. They did not expect anything outstanding under the existing order of things, because they were actively looking for ways to improve their social status, or rather, to get their inheritance in the board and cease to depend on relatives who either rose or fell in the turbulent cauldron of political life in Russia at that time. It was difficult to do this by legal means, because the search was conducted for illegal ways, i.e. just ways to drive out local princes from somewhere and sit down to rule by ourselves.

Just at that time, on the territory of the principality, especially in its southern part, which was called Subcarpathia, later became Przemysl principality, and then Galicia, dissatisfaction began to ripen. Local communities were dissatisfied with the rule of Yaropolk, civil wars, Polish garrisons in large cities, and many others. The factor of weakening the power of the Grand Duke of Kiev also affected, because of which there appeared tendencies for separation or at least isolation of individual principalities. Nevertheless, the legacy of the times of Vladimir the Great and Yaroslav the Wise still affected - the local communities associated their future only with the Rurikovichs and therefore they needed some representative of the ruling dynasty in order to achieve legitimacy and, possibly, strengthen their capabilities in the future struggle for a place under the sun. In the person of the Rostislavichs, the local population acquired three princes at once. Without the support of the communities, Rurik, Volodar, and Cornflower had little chance of success; in addition, there is no information that they would have any other support from outside. The union of three brothers and sub-Carpathian communities became natural and even inevitable.

In 1084, taking advantage of the departure of Yaropolk Izyaslavich from Vladimir, the Rostislavichs went to the Cherven cities and rebelled there against the prince. Przemysl also supported them, as a result of which the backbone of the troops of the three brothers made up the city regiments (otherwise it is almost impossible to explain the appearance of their army). The Polish garrisons were driven out in the face of superior forces, and soon after that Vladimir-Volynsky was taken without much bloodshed, who probably simply opened the gates to the rebels. Yaropolk requested help from the Kiev prince, and he sent his son, Vladimir Monomakh, with the aim of returning the principality to the control of his rightful ruler. It was possible to recapture the capital of the principality, but its southern territories, including the major cities of Przemysl, Zvenigorod and Terebovlyu, showed serious resistance. In the end, Monomakh was forced to go back to Kiev, and Yaropolk continued to struggle with the Rostislavichs, during which he died - in 1086 he was killed by his own warrior Neradts. Since Neradec then found refuge in Przemysl, the Rostislavichs were accused of the murder, but they didn’t care: acting together with the communities of the three large cities of South-Western Russia, the outcast princes gained vast and rich lands in their own possession, establishing their authority there .

Principality of Rostislavich

F. A. Bruni. Blinding Vasilka Terebovlskogo

Since 1086, the Volyn principality, before that one, was divided into two parts. Severnaya, with its capital in Vladimir-Volynsky, was controlled by “legitimate” rulers according to logging law, with the exception of the city of Dorogobuzh, which in 1084 was transferred to Davyd Igorevich by decision of the Kiev prince. In the south, having divided the possessions among themselves, the Rostislavichs began to rule, having founded a separate branch of the Rurikovich, later called the First Galician Dynasty. Rurik as the elder brother became the supreme ruler of the newly formed principality, settling in Przemysl. His younger brothers, Volodar and Vasilko, sat down to rule in Zvenigorod and Terebovle respectively. Inheritance in the principality took place within the framework of this branch of the Rurikovich, in exchange for this the princes received significant support from local communities who regularly put their troops under the command of the Rostislavichs - otherwise it is difficult to explain how they managed to repel the numerous encroachments of neighbors on the lands of Przemysl.

Rurik died in 1092, leaving no children behind. Volodar became the prince in Przemysl, who turned out to be a long-lived prince and ruled there until 1124. His reign turned out to be quite eventful. In 1097, he attended the Lyubech Congress of Princes, where he became close friends with Vladimir Monomakh and achieved recognition of his rights to Przemysl. This did not please Prince Davyd Igorevich, who at that time began to rule Volyn: he considered that the Rostislavichi threatened his position and could challenge him with power over the principality. It is possible that Davyda was supported by the community of Vladimir-Volynsky, which lost part of its power and profits with the loss of Subcarpathia. On the side of Davyd Igorevich stood the Grand Duke of Kiev, Svyatopolk Izyaslavich, who in the same year kidnapped Volodar's younger brother, Vasilka, and blinded him, which provoked the beginning of a new strife.

However, the effect of blinding Vasilk turned out to be completely opposite to what could help the cause of Davyd and Svyatopolk. Volodar Rostislavich news about this abuse of his younger brother caused a storm of indignation. The community also joined the prince - the Rostislavichs were “their own” for her, and therefore the blinding of Vasilka was an insult to all the communes of the principality. In addition, the youngest of Rostislavichi was a fairly popular ruler; in the early 1090s, in alliance with the Polovtsy, he went on long trips, including Poland, had great ambitions and sought to establish himself in Bulgaria. People considered such a prince “their own” and therefore were ready to fit in for him in full.

Davyd, taking with him the blinded Vasilk, invaded the territory of Przemysl principality and besieged Terebovlya, a former border town. However, he soon encountered troubles - Volodar managed to quickly assemble a considerable army and drove the Volyn prince to the city of Buzhsk, where he was forced to sit under siege. The situation of Davyd became hopeless, and in exchange for the release of Vasilk he was allowed to leave the city. Nevertheless, Volodar did not let up and besieged the Volyn prince in his capital, the city of Vladimir. In the end, Davyd was forced to flee to Poland and seek support there, and the Rostislavichs began to catch everyone who somehow participated in the blindness of Vasilka. They didn’t execute them personally, handing over the guilty to the hands of community residents, who themselves punished the criminals by hanging on trees and shooting from bows. The unity of Rostislavich and Subcarpathian communities at that time was absolute.

War again

Russian princes were outraged history with the blinding of Vasilka, and therefore in 1098 they gathered a large army, which approached Kiev and forced Svyatopolk Izyaslavich, a participant in the blinding, to punish the main culprit of the incident, Davyd Igorevich. He did not lose time, having managed to return to his principality with the support of the Poles. Svyatopolk had to negotiate neutrality with them, and then besiege Vladimir-Volynsky in order to punish the Volyn prince. However, when it came to real punishments, no special measures were taken - Davyd Igorevich, in fact, voluntarily left the city, going to rule in Cherven, and the son of Svyatopolk, Mstislav, sat down to rule in Vladimir.

After the assertion of his authority in Volhynia, Svyatopolk did not find a better idea how to ... go on a campaign against the Rostislavichs! Meanwhile, Davyd Igorevich was not going to abandon his claims to Volyn, actively looking for allies. As a result of this, a situation arose in South-Western Russia when military operations were conducted between three separate parties, which could either fight with each other or enter into short-term alliances. The first side was the Rostislavichs, who defended their possessions in the Przemysl principality, the second - Prince Chervensky, Davyd Igorevich, who claimed Vladimir-Volynsky, and the third - the Grand Prince of Kiev Svyatopolk. The latter theoretically had the greatest opportunities, but he put his son Mstislav to reign in Vladimir without taking into account the views of the local community, as a result of which she did not have great love for him. This could not play a role in the future ...

The campaign of Svyatopolk with his sons against the Rostislavichs in 1099 ended with the battle on the Rozhny field. Volodar and Vasilko, accustomed to fighting for their interests together with the community, won the battle. This victory of its kind was the first, for the troops of the Prince of Kiev were defeated for the first time in a battle not for Kiev itself. One of the sons of Svyatopolk, Yaroslav, still did not stop, and therefore soon invaded the territory of the principality from the west, with the support of the Hungarian king Coloman I, his relative. This was the first time in a long series of interventions by Hungarian kings in the affairs of Southwest Russia. The brothers were besieged because they could not resist the large Hungarian army in the field.

The position was saved by the Polovtsian Khan Bonyak, who simultaneously acted as an ally of Rostislavich and Davyd Igorevich. Hungarian troops were ambushed on the Vagra River and suffered a heavy defeat, because of which they were forced to leave the territory of Przemysl principality. After that, Davyd Igorevich and the Polovtsy moved to the capital of Volyn. The city was defended mainly by visiting warriors, which emphasizes the chronicle - the Vladimirites themselves refused to support Mstislav Svyatopolchich, who died during the siege while on the wall. An attempt by supporters of the Kiev prince led by Davyd Svyatoslavich (not to be confused with his namesake!) To unlock the city failed, as a result of which Davyd Igorevich’s control over Volyn was restored.

In 1100, Russian princes gathered in Uvetichi to agree on peace conditions. Davyd Igorevich, despite his achievements, was still deprived of the Volyn principality, which was transferred to Yaroslav Svyatopolchich (the very one who brought the Hungarians to Russia a year ago). However, Davydu still left a number of cities in the possession, the main of which was Buzhsk. The Grand Duke of Kiev himself, Svyatopolk, was still trying to return Subcarpathia to his possession and therefore, together with his allies and supporters, put forward an ultimatum to the Rostislavichs - to give him Terebovlya and remain to rule only Przemysl, which he was ready to hand over to the volost with his lordly hand. How exactly the brothers answered this is unknown, but the fact remains: they did not give anything to the Kiev prince. The separate existence of the Principality of Rostislavich continued.

Volodar, Prince Peremyshlsky

After 1100, Volodar could be considered the prince of Przemysl and all the lands of Subcarpathia with even greater right, and even the prince of Kiev could not somehow weaken the power of the Rostislavichs, who acted in close cooperation with local communities. The prince himself turned out to be a pretty good ruler, a skilled diplomat, able to plan ahead and see the benefits of relations with certain of his relatives. In addition, he perfectly understood both his precarious situation and the importance of developing the lands entrusted to him, due to which his policy regarding strife in Russia could be called successful. Rostislavichi took part in them, but rarely enough, without attracting large forces. Everything was done to ensure the rapid development of the principality, its security and independence. Communities of the cities of Subcarpathia highly appreciated this policy and remained selflessly loyal to Volodar throughout his reign.

The prince conducted the "foreign" policy quite flexibly. Sworn enemies or eternal friends did not exist for him. In 1101, Volodar, together with Prince Chernigov, Davyd Svyatoslavich, went on a campaign against the Poles, although only a couple of years ago they were, if not enemies, then certainly fought on opposite sides of the barricades. Relations with Vladimir Monomakh, who were given support during his conflict in 1117 with the Volyn prince, Yaroslav Svyatopolchich, were kept warm enough. This did not prevent Volodar in 1123 from supporting the same Yaroslav Svyatopolchich in the war against the son of Monomakh, Andrei, since the Rostislavichs were seriously afraid of Vladimir Monomakh’s gaining power in Volhynia. In 1119, along with the Polovtsy, Prince Peremyshl went to Byzantium, collecting rich booty, and in 1122, during a raid on the Poles, he was captured due to the betrayal of his governor, as a result of which Vasilk had to redeem his older brother for a large sum of money.

Of the two daughters of Volodar, one was married to the son of Vladimir Monomakh, and the second to the son of the Byzantine emperor Alexei I Komnin.

Volodar died in 1124, showing himself, though not a great ruler, but certainly outstanding among many others. The fact that he acted in the interests of his principality, and also ruled for more than 30 years, allowed Przemysl principality to grow stronger and stronger to a large extent. Moreover, the laws of an ordinary ladder did not apply to the principality of Rostislavich. Three large destinies, Przemysl, Terebovlya and Zvenigorod, from now on could only be in the possession of Rostislavichi. It is from the reign of Prince Volodar that you can count the beginning of the future Galician principality as a separate from the rest of Russia, strong and developed, with great potential.

One cannot but mention the activity of the younger Rostislavich. Vasilko continued to rule Terebovlem until his death in the same 1124. During this time, he managed to significantly strengthen the border with the steppe, settling them with settlers and founding a number of settlements. At the same time, relations with the Polovtsy gradually improved, which even their periodic raids on the Terebovl land could not prevent. In his expansion to the south, he even made claims to the Bulgarian territories and actively used the nomads who wanted to settle as new settlers. Probably, Vasilk belongs to merit in the rapid development of one of the cities of his land, which in the future will become the capital of the whole principality - Galich, in which one of his sons sat down to rule immediately after the death of Vasilk. However, this is already a slightly different time ...

Vladimirko Volodarevich

After the death of Volodar Rostislavich, the ruler in Przemysl became his eldest son, Rostislav. He had not the simplest relations with the Poles - in 1122 he managed to be held hostage, captured after an unsuccessful trip to Poland, while his father was collecting a ransom, and already in 1124 he managed to defend Przemysl from them. He soon also had a chance to fight with his younger brother, Vladimir Volodarevich, who, with the help of the Hungarians, tried to become the supreme ruler of the whole principality. The war did not lead to anything, since the cousins ​​and Mstislav of Kiev supported the prince. However, in 1128, for an unknown reason, Rostislav died without leaving any heirs, and the very Vladimir became the prince in Przemysl.

Vladimir Volodarevich was an energetic, purposeful and domineering man, not counting natural duplicity, cynicism and unprincipledness. He wanted to create a centralized and strong principality, capable of not only defending itself against external enemies, but also going on the offensive. He inherited a good inheritance from his father, and in 1128 he combined under himself two of the four inheritances of the principality - Przemysl and Zvenigorod. In his actions, Vladimir relied on the support of the communities, but he made a special emphasis on the boyars, which at that time had almost become a separate aristocracy and began to emerge as a new political force. Together with the boyars, Vladimir possessed sufficient power, resources and troops to realize his main aspirations.

In 1140, Vladimir took part in another feud in Russia, speaking in support of Vsevolod Olgovich of Kiev against Izyaslav Mstislavich Volynsky. Here again, the factor of Rostislavich’s fear of strengthening someone in Volhynia played its role, but there was another reason: Prince Peremyshlsky sought to expand his own possessions, primarily at the expense of Volhynia. Nothing came of this venture, since Izyaslav Mstislavich turned out to be a more skilled commander and politician, which he will demonstrate in the future, having earned one of the first tsar’s title in Russia, so far only in correspondence. Despite the insignificant scope of this conflict, it will prove to be a prologue to a rather serious confrontation between these two Rurikovich in the future.

Prince Vasilko Rostislavich left behind his two sons - Ivan and Rostislav, who ruled in Galich and Terebovl respectively. The latter died before the 1140s, and his brother inherited his possessions, Ivan. Ivan himself died in 1141, leaving no heirs, as a result of which all lands, with the exception of Zvenigorod, were inherited by Vladimir Volodarevich. This was a great success, as it allowed for the first time in all time to unite almost all of Subcarpathia in one hand. Immediately after that, Vladimir thought about moving the capital: constant conflicts with the Poles over the border Przemysl caused a lot of problems. It required a capital, quite remote from the borders, but at the same time developed and rich. At that moment only Galich could become such a capital. The move there was made in the same year, and from that moment the history of the Principality of Galician principality begins with the capital in the city of the same name.
