History
Reign
When Roman the Great seized the principality of Halych in 1187, Valdimir fled to Bela's court. Bela ordered the invasion of Halych but placed his son Andrew in power, and imprisoned Vladimir instead. Bela thereafter claimed the title king of Galicia.
Validmir escaped captivity in 1190, fled to the court of Casimir II, and organized a new invasion to expel Hungary from Galicia.
