Pronsk
The Principality of Pronsk was a Ryazan appanage centered on the fortified town of Pronsk. In 1337 Prince Michael of the Ryazan branch of the Rurik dynasty held it under Ryazan.
The princes pursued their own alliances: in 1427 Ivan Vladimirovich entered Lithuanian service. After prolonged friction, Ryazan reabsorbed Pronsk in 1483 under the regent Anna, with the agreement of her brother Ivan III of Moscow. In the early sixteenth century the remaining Pronsk princes entered Muscovite service, and their lands became part of the Russian state.
