Turov
Turov was a Rus' principality centred on Turov in Polesia. It joined Lithuania peacefully early in the fourteenth century, while local Rurikid princes retained Turov; in 1337 its prince was Daniel.
In 1430 Turov became the private town of Grand Duke Švitrigaila. Tatars damaged it in 1502 and destroyed it again in 1521, after the Ostrogski family had begun rebuilding it. The town passed to Russia in the Second Partition of Poland in 1793.
