Mikhail Vsevolodovich[1][a] (c. 1185 – 20 September 1246), known as Michael or Mikhail of Chernigov,[2][3][b] was Grand Prince of Kiev (1236–1240; 1240; 1241–1243); he was also Prince of Pereyaslavl (1206), Novgorod-Seversk (1219–1226), Chernigov (1223–1235; 1242–1246), Novgorod (1225–1226; 1229–1230), and Galicia (1235–1236).[1]
Archaeological evidence reveals that Chernigov towns enjoyed an unprecedented degree of prosperity during his period which suggests that promoting trade was a priority for him.[1] Commercial interests, in part, also motivated him to seize control of Halych and Kiev because they were channels through which goods from the Rhine valley and Hungary passed to Chernigov.[1] He also negotiated commercial treaties and political alliances with the Poles and the Hungarians.[1] He alleviated the tax burden of the Novgorodians and granted their boyars greater political freedom from the prince.[1]
During the Mongol invasion of Kievan Rus' (1237–1242), Mikhail was defeated and had to flee;[4] in 1246, he was executed by Batu Khan.[5]
