Yaroslav was a son of [[Vladimir the Great]] and [[Rogneda of Polotsk]]. Yaroslav ruled the northern lands around [[Rostov, Yaroslavl Oblast|Rostov]] before being transferred to [[Veliky Novgorod|Novgorod]] in 1010. He had a strained relationship with his father and refused to pay tribute to Kiev in 1014. Following Vladimir's death in 1015, Yaroslav waged a complicated war for the Kievan throne against his half-brother [[Sviatopolk I of Kiev|Sviatopolk]], ultimately emerging victorious in 1019.
