   Biography
   A son of Vladimir Sviatoslavich "The Great", the first Christian Prince of Novgorod, and Rogneda Polotsk*. Yaroslav acted as vice-regent of Novgorod at the time of his father's death in 1015. Subsequently his eldest surviving brother, Sviatopolk I of Kiev, killed three of his other brothers and seized power in Kiev. Yaroslav, with the active support of the Novgorodians and the help of Varangian mercenaries, defeated Svyatopolk and became the Grand Prince of Kiev in 1019. In 1019 Yaroslav married Ingegerd Olofsdotter, daughter of the King of Sweden, and gave Staraya Ladoga to her as a marriage gift. Saint Sophia's Cathedral in Kiev houses a fresco representing the whole family: Yaroslav, Irene (as Ingegerd was known in Rus), their four daughters and six sons. Yaroslav had three of his daughters married to foreign princes who lived in exile at his court: Elisiv of Kiev to Harald Harðráði (who attained her hand by his military exploits in the Byzantine Empire); Anastasia of Kiev to the future Andrew I of Hungary; Anne of Kiev to Henry I of France and was the regent of France during their son's minority; (she was Yaroslav the Wise's most beloved daughter). and possibly: Agatha to Edward the Exile, of the royal family of England; the mother of Edgar the Ætheling and Saint Margaret of Scotland.* Rogneda (Ragnhild) of Polotsk (962–1002) was the daughter of Ragnvald who came from Scandinavia and established himself at Polotsk in the mid-10th century. It has been speculated that Rogneda belonged to the Ynglings royal family of Norway. In or about 980 Vladimir, on learning that she was betrothed to his half-brother Yaropolk I of Kiev, took Polotsk and forced Rogneda to marry him. Having raped Rogneda in the presence of her parents he ordered them to be killed, along with two of Rogneda's brothers. Rogneda gave him several children including Iaroslav. After Vladimir converted to Christianity and took Anna Porphyrogeneta as his wife he had to divorce all his previous wives, including Rogneda. After that, she entered a convent and took the name Anastasia.Wikipedia 2018
