The Gediminids - the birth of the best Lithuanian dynasty [ History of Lithuania, part I ] Telegram - https://t.me/veritas_vincit The death of Mindaugas - the first prince and king of Lithuania entailed a bloody struggle for his inheritance. The situation seemed to stabilize after the actions of his son Voishelk, who, being influenced by Russian culture, wanted to introduce the Duchy of Lithuania into the Galician-Russian possessions. In 1267, he gave the princely throne to Shvarn Danilovich, which ended my previous, and also the first video about the history of Lithuania. Today we will talk about subsequent events up to the reign of Viten and Gediminas.
