Roman Mstislavich[1] (Russian and Ukrainian: Роман Мстиславич c. 4 April 1152 – 19 June 1205), also known as Roman the Great,[2] was a Rus’ prince and a member of Izyaslavichi of Volhynia clan.[3][4] He founded the Romanovichi dynasty,[3] which would rule Volhynia and Halych until 1340.[5]

He was Prince of Novgorod (1168–1170), Volhynia (1170–1189, 1189–1205), and of Halych (Galicia; 1189, 1198/99–1205).[1] By seizing the throne of Halych, he became the master of all Western Rus’.[6] In the early 13th century, Byzantine chroniclers applied the imperial title "autocrate" (αύτοκράτωρ) to him, but there is no evidence that he assumed it officially.[6]

He waged two successful campaigns against the Cumans, from which he returned with many rescued captives.[3] The effect of Roman's victory was, however, undermined by new divisions among the princes of Rus’.[6]

Roman died in a battle with the Poles at the Battle of Zawichost.[6]
