Michael or Mikhail of Chernigov (Russian: Михаи́л Черни́говский, romanized: Mikhail Chernigovskij; Ukrainian: Миха́йло Чернігівський, romanized: Mykhailo Chernihivs'kyj) or Mikhail Vsevolodovich (Russian: Михаил Всеволодович; Ukrainian: Михайло Всеволодович); c. 1185 – 20 September 1246) was Grand Prince of Kiev (1236–1240; 1240; 1241–1243); he was also Prince of Pereyaslavl (1206), Prince of Novgorod-Seversk (1219–1226), Prince of Chernigov (1223–1235; 1242–1246), Prince of Novgorod (1225–1226, 1229–1230), and Prince of Galicia (1235–1236).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. 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. He also negotiated commercial treaties and political alliances with the Poles and the Hungarians. Read more on Wikipedia
