In the times of the crusades and the Golden Horde a power came to rise in Central Europe, a power so great that it couldn't be ignored. Prince Roman the Great united the surrounding lands. The Teutonic knights called it the Principality of Ruthenia. At the height of his reign Roman was killed in an ambush.The Boyars seized this opportunity to divide the power amongst themselves. Yefrosinia, the prince Roman's wife, daughter to the Emperor of Constantinople,used her influence to save her children. Ruthenian lands drowned in the bloodshed of internecine war until the Prince's sons, Danylo and Vasylko, stepped forward and reclaimed their father's legacy.
