In early 1240 the rest of the Mongol troops close to Kyiv. How to notify the chronicler, the Mongol warlord Menhuhan sent to the Prince of Kiev - Kiev then on the table sat Michael Vsevolodovich Chernihiv - ambassadors from the requirement to hand over the city.
Prince Michael commanded to kill the messengers, and he - or afraid of their own act, or understanding that does not have adequate support, - went to Hungary.

very same prince went to Poland and Hungary, with the intention to organize neighbors to collective action against aggressors.

3. Defense Kyiv

For a list of chronicles, taking Mongols held in Kyiv Mykolyn Day, or December 6, 1240
Otherwise do not list any given date and only states that the city stuck to 10 weeks and four days.
Considering that Kyiv had a very strong fortress, scientists tend to believe that the siege was protracted, and assault - hardened.
brunt Batu directed from the south near Lyadsky gate.
continuously, day and night Mongols beat rams gate and walls, until the plot took a shaft and broke into the limits "of Yaroslav.
Resistance Kiev was so desperate, and invaders such large losses that Batu had to order the cease fighting and gave respite to his forces.
defenders Kyiv. He went away on the border "city of Vladimir, they overnight ukripylysya on new positions.
next day battle began again. Kiyani zealously defending every street, every house, but the forces were too unequal.
Mongols broke through the fortifications around St. Sophia gate - because they then started calling Batyyevymy.
Conqueror Desiatynna surrounded the church and attacked its walls murolomnymy machines.
temple collapsed, buried under the ruins of its heroic defenders. Thousands of Kiev were killed in an unequal struggle.
Almost all residential and commercial buildings, palaces and cathedrals Kyiv turned to the still smoldering.
P-40 masonry temples that had to Kyiv Mongolian trampling, according to scientists remained, and even the very damaged, some 5-6.
of over 8 thousand yards, in the words of Plano Carpini, about 200 survived. Thus, residents' Mother of all Rus cities "decreased from 50 - 60 to two thousand.

4. Hike the Mongol hordes of Galicia and Volhynia

From Kyiv main force went to the Batu Vladimir and Galich, while others remained Mongolian troops plunder Kyiv region.
With fire and sword the Mongols were in the Kyiv, Volyn and Galicia lands.
Vishgorod and Belgorod, hillforts on Teteriv happened, Horyn, Southern Bug rivers and other paintings reflect heroic defense and destruction of these cities.
protracted and fierce battle was for Vladimir.
enemy with much difficulty took the city.
Under Mongol hordes came Galich connected by a three-day siege and after they took him by storm.
Year 1241 the Mongols came to the western frontiers of Russia.
part of the Mongol army vderlasya in Poland.
same Mongol forces entered the border of Hungary and the Czech Republic went on.
However in 1242 Batu stop trip to the West and through Bosnia, Serbia, Bulgaria and Russia withdrew its troops in the lower course of the Volga.
reason for this was the death of the chief Mongol Khan Uhedeya, Batu, and wanted to take an active part in the election of a new one.
However, reasons for discontinuation were intense campaign: Batu had no forces to keep in subjection all the conquered countries of Eastern and Central Europe, too suffered heavy losses of its army.

5. Golden yoke

Mongol Empire was redistributed into four parts (ulus).
Batu possession constituted the westernmost part - ulus Dzhuchi: there was a state Golden Horde.
Under the rule of the country, covering territory from the Urals and Western Siberia to the Black Sea, appeared all Rus-Ukraine.
unrecognizably Mongol invasion changed the Russians land. The most devastation suffered Kyiv, Chernihiv and Pereyaslavskoe-Sivers'k principality.
Batu they were dependent on the Golden Horde.
Power princes in these lands remained, but the right to reign the Mongol Khan confirmed his label - Diploma, permits to own land - in exchange for recognition of their superiority and commitment to provide troops and pay tribute .
According to sources, the Mongols demanded payment of the total population tenth - both products and property and their own people.
to terrible "human Tithes fell and those who could not settle in the normal way. Removed people caught in slavery, they were mostly handed over to the Mongolian army.
for calculating and collecting tribute watched Mongolian officials. Senior government officials in the conquered lands called baskakom .
In his possession were the troops that were continually in the citadel - baskatskomu town. Researchers believe that one of these towns was located not far from Kyiv, in the tract Batyyevomu - where stored and still interprets the name.
conquered land by Mongol tradition, was redistributed in part (ulus) between subordinates Batu less powerful khans.
Yes, the Dnieper was redistributed between khans and Mautsi Kuremsoyu: first kochuvav Zadniprov'yi in the second - the Right Bank across the steppes.
Golden rulers constantly interfering in the internal affairs of the principalities, hyping intestine wars between princes, and not stopping before the destruction of the princes who came to horde capital.
So, when Prince Michael Vsevolodovich Chernihiv attempted to establish itself in Kiev, he had to appeal to Hanoi.
chronicler tells you that Prince Michael went in for the Mongol Horde label , where the September 20, 1246 for refusing to perform pagan rituals on the orders of Batu was executed along with his boyar Fedor.
In 1243 the first of the princes acknowledged the supremacy of the Mongols and took out a shortcut to the city of Kyiv and Vladimir Yaroslav Vsevolodovich.
destroyed Kyiv prince did not go and sent the governor there.
After the death of Prince Yaroslav Vsevolodovich right "to Kyiv and all Rus land" was his son Alexander Nevsky named. But he refused and the capital.
Pereiaslavs'ka hit the earth even more dependent on the Horde. In the second half of 40's of 13 century. here was his prince.
lost their grandeur and Chernihiv principality. At the end of 13 - 14 during the first half century. rozpadalosya on it and new portions.

6. Mongolian supremacy over the Galicia-Volyn principality

Compared with other Ruthenian lands less devastation of the Mongol invasion suffered Galicia-Volyn principality.
It was not redistributed to the administrative district of the Mongols, the other principalities, not in it and the governors-baskakiv.
in Galicia and Volhynia ruled by their own rulers are able to extend the deal to unite the Ukrainian principalities.
Not role played here and a prominent figure of the ruler of Galicia and Volyn State - Prince Daniel Romanovich.
His actions caused resentment Batu Khan, who made the request before the prince to visit the Horde.
In October 1245 Daniel went to the Horde.
journey was long. According to chronicle, Daniel spent 25 days in the Horde.
Mongols adopted its Galician-Volyn prince:
Payment of tribute was not envisaged, and the dependence of Galicia-Volyn principality from the Golden Horde was to participate in the prince's army campaigns Mongol army.

So, while Daniel R. was in a relationship of Batu Khan Mongolian high and mighty were still far from complete conquest of the Galician-Volyn land.

7. Implications Golden Yoke

To fully assess the impact of Mongol invasion on the Ukrainian land, remember that it is not only destructive campaigns of 1238-1242 biennium, but also - and mainly it! - Stay on the centuries under the rule of the Mongol khans.
huge human and material losses they suffered Ukrainian principality during the first - the most powerful blow, grew over the years since the Mongol hordes from time to time nakochuvalys waves on land conquered by predatory raids.
The researchers note that during such raids Ukrainian lands lost princes, priests, artisans, warriors, which inflicted great damage sustained development of the nation, impeded economic and cultural life.
loss of political independence, the princes of the role of men 'Golden captains will prytlumlyuvaly the state traditions dalosya felt over the next centuries.
After weakening Russia as a result of the Mongol invasion rushed to take western neighbors, especially Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Teutonic Order, and bleeding Ukrainian lands were not doable due to resistance.

This ultimately led to division of Ukrainian lands among several states - and in this tragic consequence Golden hardship.
