Princes of Smolensk

The Smolensk princedom - the principality in the Kievan Rus, then independent, existed before it was included in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in 1404.

The first known Smolensk prince - Stanislav Vladimirovich, the youngest son of the great prince of Kiev Vladimir Svyatoslavovich , was on the Smolensk reign during his father's life. In the 1050s, the younger sons of Yaroslav the Wise reigned on the Smolensk table, Yaroslav 's grandson Vladimir Monomakh in the 1070s. Since the 1090s, Smolensk has become a permanent place of reign. Until 1125 (with a brief break), he was ruled by the sons of Vladimir Monomakh. In 1125 the grandson of Monomakh Rostislav Mstislavich became the prince. He and his descendants ruled the Smolensk Principality up to the complete loss of independence by the Principality at the beginning of the 15th century.

Below is the most complete list of princes during the entire existence of the Smolensk Principality.

XIV century. └─> Descendants without princely titles. The origin of Tatishchevs from the Grand Duke Gleb Svyatoslavovich, from his grandson Ivan Dmitrievich "Shah", is extremely doubtful [3] : chronologically and territorially. Also, with such attributed origin, the loss of the princely title is completely inexplicable. The origin of Field and Eropkin from Grand Duke Yuri Svyatoslavovich, from his son Fedor, is impossible chronologically [4]. The origin of the princes of Fominsky from Grand Prince Yuri Svyatoslavovich, from the allegedly his son Konstantin Fominsky and Berezuisky, is impossible chronologically [5]. Consequently, the position of princes Kozlovsky among the Smolensk princes is unknown.

Perhaps, Fields, Eropkins and princes of Fominsk are the descendants of Yuri Svyatoslavovich, from Svyatoslav Glebovich, Prince Mozhaisky, and after Briansk, (for example, from his first wife), and not the Grand Duke of Smolensk. [ source not specified 2479 days ] The error is probably due to the fact that Fedor Svyatoslavovich reigned for some time in Smolensk.
