Ivan II of Moscow

Ivan II Ivanovich, called the Fair (30 March 1326 – 13 November 1359), was a son of Ivan I Kalita. After his brother Simeon died of the Black Death in 1353, he succeeded as prince of Moscow and grand prince of Vladimir.

A passive ruler, he let Algirdas of Lithuania take Bryansk and Oleg of Riazan raid his lands; yet aided by Metropolitan Alexius he annexed Borovsk and Vereya. His second wife bore him Dmitry Donskoy, and he died in 1359.
