Grand Prince of Kiev
Details
First monarch
Oleg the Wise (first undisputed "Prince of Kiev")[1] Yaroslav the Wise (first undisputed "Grand Prince of Kiev")[2]
The Grand Prince of Kiev (sometimes grand duke) was the title of the monarch of Kievan Rus', residing in Kiev (modern Kyiv) from the 10th to 13th centuries.[citation needed] In the 13th century, Kiev became an appanage principality first of the grand prince of Vladimir and the Mongol Golden Horde governors, and later was taken over by the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.[citation needed]
Rus' chronicles such as the Primary Chronicle are inconsistent in applying the title "grand prince" to various princes in Kievan Rus'.[3] Although most sources consistently attribute it to the prince of Kiev,[3] there is no agreement which princes were also "grand prince", and scholars have thus come up with different lists of grand princes of Kiev.[4]
