Sviatopolk II of Kiev

Sviatopolk II Iziaslavich (1050 – April 16, 1113) is supreme ruler of the Kievan Rus for 20 years, from 1093 to 1113.

He is not a popular prince, and his reign is marked by incessant rivalry with his cousin Vladimir Monomakh.

Upon his death the Kievan citizens raise a rebellion against the Jewish merchants and Varangian officials who speculate in grain and salt.
