Черниговское княжество
Most of the Principality of Chernigov was located on the left bank of the river Dnieper, within the basins of the Desna and Seim rivers. The principality was supposedly populated by mostly Slavic tribes of Siverians and partially by the Dnieper Polans. Later the territory of the principality extended to the lands of Radimichs and partially the Vyatichs and Drehovichs. The capital of the principality was the city of Chernigov. Other important cities were Novgorod-Seversky, Starodub-Seversky, Trubchevsk, Kozelsk, Bryansk, Putivl, Kursk, Karachev, Lubech, Glukhov, Chechersk, Gomel, Belgorod, Vyr, and others. Ownership and influence of the Chernigov Principality reached far to the North (to the Murom-Ryazan Land) and to the South-East (Tmutorokan Principality).
