Identify key figures, dates, and locations associated with the Mongol conquest and the development of the Kingdom of Galicia-Volhynia (e.g., King Danylo of Halych, the Siege of Kyiv in 1240, battle of the Kalka River, Sarai, Yaroslav).
-
Define core institutional terms governing Mongol-Rus relations, such as yarlyk, baskak, dan', yam, and the Golden Horde.
2. Understanding and application (levels 2-3)

Summarize the diplomatic strategy of King Danylo of Halych in balancing relations between the Golden Horde, the Papacy, and Western European monarchies.
-
Analyze primary source excerpts (e.g., The Galician-Volhynian Chronicle or accounts by Giovanni da Pian del Carpine) to extract evidence about 13th-century siege warfare and diplomatic protocol under Mongol suzerainty.

Map the geopolitical shifts in East-Central Europe following the fall of Kyiv, tracing the territorial borders, trade routes, and urban developments of Galicia-Volhynia.
4. Analysis (Level 4)

Examine the structural causes behind the ultimate decline of the Kingdom of Galicia-Volhynia in the mid-14th century and its subsequent partition between Poland and Lithuania.
5. Evaluation and Creating (Levels 5-6)

Assess the historical significance of Danylo’s royal coronation in 1253 by Papal legate, evaluating whether his Western orientation was a diplomatic success or a strategic failure.
