Birth
Yuri was the sixth son of Vladimir Monomakh. It is unclear when Yuri was born. Some chronicles report that Yuri's elder brother, Viacheslav, said to him: "I am much older than you; I was already bearded when you were born."[citation needed] Since Viacheslav was born in 1083, this supposedly pushes Yuri's birth to c. 1099/1100.[citation needed] However, the Primary Chronicle records the first marriage of Yuri – on 12 January 1108. It means that Yuri was born before c. 1099/1100 (as he could no...
Activities in Rostov and Suzdal
In 1108 Vladimir Monomakh sent his young son Yuri to govern in his name the vast Vladimir-Suzdal principality in the north-east of Kievan Rus'. In 1121 Yuri quarreled with the boyars of Rostov and moved the capital of his lands from that city to Suzdal. As the area was sparsely populated, Yuri founded many fortresses there. He established the towns of Ksniatin (in 1134), Pereslavl-Zalesski and Yuriev-Polski (in 1152), and Dmitrov (in 1154). The establishment of Tver, Kostroma, and Vologda is...

Yuri instantaneously declared war on the princes of Chernigov, the reigning Grand Prince and his brother Yaropolk II of Kiev, enthroned his son in Novgorod, and captured h...

Essor. Originellement liés aux Kimeks, ils se séparent vers le milieu du XIe siècle. Ils s'étendent alors vers l'ouest, chassent les Petchénègues et s'établissent de l' Irtych jusqu'à la mer Noire, leur territoire étant délimité au sud par le lac Balkhach, le Syr-Daria, la mer d'Aral, la mer Caspienne et le Kouban.
As a consequence, groups of the Cumans and the Tatars settled and mingled with the local population in various regions of the Balkans. The Cumans were the founders of three successive Bulgarian dynasties (Asenids, Terterids and Shishmanids), and the Wallachian dynasty (Basarabids).
