History edit
The Principality's history was closely linked with its place between the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Moscow and the Golden Horde.
Prince of Novosil Roman Semyonovich took part with Prince of Moscow Dmitry Donskoy in the campaign of Tver in 1375. In December, the Horde wiped out most of Novosil and the principality's land. The Odoyevsky Principality arose in the next year when Roman Semyonovich settled in Odoyev or possibly after his death in about 1402.[1]
Princes of Odoyev called themselves princes of Novosil, and sometimes princes of Novosil and Odoyev up to the late 1400 and began name themselves only princes of Odoyev by the mid-1500s.[2] The House of Odoyev died out in the 19th Century.
In 1407, Lithuanians burned down Odoyev.[3] The principality was ceded to them in 1427.[4] The Princes of Odoyev were granted extensive lands in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, but Lithuanians collected tribute from them annually.[5]
In the late 1400s — early 1500s, the Principality of Odoyev was torn between the Crimean Khanate, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Duchy of Moscow.[6]
In 1494, the principality was absorbed by the Grand Duchy of Moscow.[7] and in 1573 the last prince, Nikita Romanovich, was beheaded by the oprichnina of Ivan the Terrible.[8]
