  Olga (Russisch en Oekraïens: ?????, ook genoemd: Olga Prekrasa (Cyrillisch: ????? ????????), bijnaamd de Heilige (Pskov, ca. 915 - Kiev, 11 juli 969) uit de dynastie der Ruriken, was van 945 tot en met 969[1] grootvorstin van het Kievse Rijk. Volgens de nestorkroniek is ze in 879 geboren, maar dat zou betekenen dat zij haar zoon Svjatoslav I op 65-jarige leeftijd het leven zou hebben geschonken.
  
  Ze was volgens de overlevering in 903 met de toekomstige grootvorst Igor van Kiev getrouwd maar dat is chronologisch bijna onmogelijk. Omdat Olga na Igors dood in 945 als regentes voor haar zoon optrad, wordt ervan uit gegaan dat die na 930 moet zijn geboren. Igor en Olga zullen niet veel eerder zijn getrouwd. Igor werd vermoord door de Drevljanen. Zijn dood werd door Olga gewroken met verschillende veldtochten. Zo zou zij bij Igors grafheuvel 5000 Drevljanen ter dood brengen en bij andere gelegenheden verscheidene leden van dit volk levend verbranden. Ook zou ze de hoofdstad van de Drevljanen, het huidige Korosten in de as leggen. Na de dood van Igor werd zij regentes voor haar zoon Svjatoslav I
  
  Olga was de eerste heerser van het Kievse Rijk die zich tot het christendom liet bekeren. Omstreeks 955 werd ze in Constantinopel gedoopt en kreeg ze de naam Helena, naar de keizerin Helena Lecapena. De ceremonies rondom haar doop, werden minutieus beschreven door keizer Constantijn VII in zijn boek De cerimoniis aulae byzantinae. In 959 vroeg ze keizer Otto I een bisschop te benoemen voor het Kievse Rijk om zo de christianisering te bespoedigen. Omdat echter alleen de paus een bisschop kan benoemen, kreeg haar verzoek geen gevolg. Toch stuurde Otto de monnik Adalbert van Maagdenburg naar het missiegebied. Echter zonder veel succes. Juist in die tijd herwon het heidendom weer aan grote populariteit. Rond 987 hadden Byzantijnse pogingen meer succes.
  
  In 1547 werd ze door de Russisch-orthodoxe Kerk heilig verklaard vanwege haar pogingen het christendom in haar rijk te verspreiden. Haar feestdag is op 11 juli. Het lukte haar echter niet haar eigen zoon Svjatoslav te bekeren. Olga's kleinzoon Vladimir maakte van het christendom uiteindelijk de staatsreligie.

  Saint Olga (Russian and Ukrainian: ?????, also called Olga Prekrasna (????? ?????????), or Olga the Beauty, hypothetically Old Norse: Helga; in some Scandinavian sources she was called by other names.[1] born c. 890 died 11 July 969, Kiev) was a ruler of Kievan Rus' as regent (945–c. 963) for her son, Svyatoslav.
  
  In 1997 the Order of Princess Olga was established in Ukraine.
  
  Early life
  
  St. Olga was born in c. 890. According to the Primary Chronicle, Olga was born in Pleskov (Pskov) (perhaps in Plisnensk[2] near Lviv), into a family of Varyag origin. By some accounts, she was the daughter of Oleg of Novgorod[3]

  The other hypothesis is that Olga was born in Pliska, Bulgaria. Her father is kn?yz Vladimir of Bulgaria.[4] His first grandson was named Vladimir I the Great named after his grandfather, respectively one of his sons Boris was named after his great-grandfather. Olga was the granddaugther of kan/knyaz Boris I.[5]
  Regency
  
  Princess Olga was the wife of Igor of Kiev, who was killed by the Drevlians. Upon her husband's death, their son, Svyatoslav, was three years old, making Olga the official ruler of Kievan Rus until he reached adulthood. The Drevlians wanted Olga to marry their Prince Mal, making him the ruler of Kievan Rus, but Olga was determined to remain in power and preserve it for her son.
  
  The Drevlians sent twenty of their best men to convince Olga to marry their Prince Mal and give up her rule of Kievan Rus. She had them buried alive. Then she sent word to Prince Mal that she accepted the proposal, but required their most distinguished men to accompany her on the journey in order for her people to accept the offer of marriage. The Drevlians sent their best men who governed their land. Upon their arrival, she offered them a warm welcome and an invitation to clean up after their long journey in a bathhouse. After they entered, she locked the doors and set fire to the building, burning them alive.
  
  With the best and wisest men out of the way, she planned to destroy the remaining Drevlians. She invited them to a funeral feast so she could mourn over her husband's grave, where her servants waited on them. After the Drevlians were drunk, Olga's soldiers killed over 5,000 of them. She returned to Kiev and prepared an army to attack the survivors. The Drevlians begged for mercy and offered to pay for their freedom with honey and furs. She asked for three pigeons and three sparrows from each house, since she did not want to burden the villagers any further after the siege. They were happy to comply with such a reasonable request.
  
  Now Olga gave to each soldier in her army a pigeon or a sparrow, and ordered them to attach by thread to each pigeon and sparrow a piece of sulfur bound with small pieces of cloth. When night fell, Olga bade her soldiers release the pigeons and the sparrows. So the birds flew to their nests, the pigeons to the cotes, and the sparrows under the eaves. The dove-cotes, the coops, the porches, and the haymows were set on fire. There was not a house that was not consumed, and it was impossible to extinguish the flames, because all the houses caught on fire at once. The people fled from the city, and Olga ordered her soldiers to catch them. Thus she took the city and burned it, and captured the elders of the city. Some of the other captives she killed, while some she gave to others as slaves to her followers. The remnant she left to pay tribute.[6]
  
  Olga remained Regent ruler of Kievan Rus with the support of the army and her people. She changed the system of tribute gathering (poliudie) in the first legal reform recorded in Eastern Europe. She continued to evade proposals of marriage, and saved the power of the throne for her son.
  Christianity
  
  She was the first Rus' ruler to convert to Christianity, either in 945 or in 957. The ceremonies of her formal reception in Constantinople were minutely described by Emperor Constantine VII in his book De Ceremoniis. Following her baptism she took the Christian name Yelena, after the reigning Empress Helena Lekapena. The Slavonic chronicles add apocryphal details to the account of her baptism, such as the story how she charmed and "outwitted" Constantine and how she spurned his matrimonial proposals. In truth, at the time of her baptism, Olga was an old woman, while Constantine had a wife.
  
  Olga was one of the first people of Rus' to be proclaimed a saint, for her efforts to spread the Christian religion in the country. Because of her proselytizing influence, the Orthodox Church calls St. Olga by the honorific Isapóstolos, "Equal to the Apostles". However, she failed to convert Svyatoslav, and it was left to her grandson and pupil Vladimir I to make Christianity the lasting state religion. During her son's prolonged military campaigns, she remained in charge of Kiev, residing in the castle of Vyshgorod together with her grandsons. She died soon after the city's siege by the Pechenegs in 969.[7][8]
  Relations with the Holy Roman Emperor
  
  Seven Latin sources document Olga's embassy to Holy Roman Emperor Otto I in 959. The continuation of Regino of Prüm mentions that the envoys requested the Emperor to appoint a bishop and priests for their nation. The chronicler accuses the envoys of lies, commenting that their trick was not exposed until later. Thietmar of Merseburg says that the first archbishop of Magdeburg, Saint Adalbert of Magdeburg, before being promoted to this high rank, was sent by Emperor Otto to the country of the Rus' (Rusciae) as a simple bishop but was expelled by pagan allies of Svyatoslav I. The same data is duplicated in the annals of Quedlinburg and Hildesheim, among others.
