Ryazan Principality

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ryazan Principality existed from 1129 when it was separated from the Murom-Ryazan Principality. In 1521 Principality became a part of Muscovy. The first ruler of Ryazan was supposedly Yaroslav Sviatoslavich, Prince of Chernigov (a city of Kievan Rus'), later Prince of Murom-Ryzan.

In 1213 the Principality became independent (the Great Principality). In Decemeber 1237 Ryazan was ravaged by Mongols of Batu Khan and the old capital waqs destroyed. In 1301 Prince Daniel of Moscow taked Ryazan due the Boyars betrayal and taked Prince Konstantin in prison. In 1305 Daniel's son Prince Yury of Moscow ordered to kill him. Two next successors of Konstantin were killed in the Golden Horde. In 1380 Prince Oleg Ivanovich was an ally of Mamai but not took part in the Battle of Kulikovo.

During almost all the its history Ryazan Principality quarreled with the Pronsk Principality until the latter was annexed to Ryazan in 1483.

In 1516 Grand Prince Vasili III of Russia captured and prisoned in Moscow the last Grand Prince of Ryazan because of his relations with Crimean Khan Mehmed I Giray. In 1521 Prince Ivan Ivanovich fled into the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. After that the Ryazan Principality was merged with the Muscovy.
