Statehood remains were saved as Galicia-Volyn principality for some period after mongol and tatar destruction of Kyivan Russ’s principalities. Galicia-Volyn principality continued state tradition of Russ and became one of the most powerful European nation with the help of Danylo’s attempts. He also stopped the expansion of eastern neighbours and increased his own areas at their expense. At the same time prince conducted important reforms, that approximated Galicia-Volyn principality to European state legal type of government organization. Reforms also strengthen Ukrainian cities of those times. Besides that, they provided prince with the protection of land from mongol and tatar destruction. However, prince’s descendants could not maintain the power of state and it degraded after his death in 1264. The last representatives of ruling Ruirikovytch dynasty died and nobles invited Romanovych distant relative Boleslav Mazovetskiy to take the throne in 1323. It was the last prince of Galicia-Volyn principality. Ukrainian principalities became dependent on their eastern neighbours after his death in 1340.
