What the year holds
What happened next, if nothing in play changes it. Each event carries what it depends on and what would stop it.
- not pinned (before 1207)Dies; Ilovaisky's damaged text may place a Prince Vladimir's death on 18 December 1203 (identity not certain); his sons take his place.Depends on: natural death
- 20 July 1217 (after this year)His son Gleb Vladimirovich, with his brother Konstantin, has six kinsmen killed at Isady near Old Ryazan.
Where the sources disagree
- Ilovaisky has Vladimir and Vsevolod quarrelling with Roman about 1180 but Vladimir on Roman's side in the 1186 division; the damaged text does not settle the sides.
Evidence: Named at the 1196 wedding and in the 1180s quarrels.
