The '''Principality of Odoyev''' ({{langx|ru|Одоевское княжество}}) was a late medieval [[Russian principality]].{{sfn|Wieczynski|1976|p=197}} It was one of the [[Upper Oka Principalities]] and it existed from 1376 to 1573. The town of [[Odoyev]] was the center of the principality.{{sfn|Boguslavsky|Kuksina|2001|p=78}}
From 1407, it was under the political authority of the [[Grand Duchy of Lithuania]]. During the 15th century, it disintegrated into a number of [[appanage]]s belonging to the princes [[Vorotynsky]] and [[Odoyevsky family|Odoyevsky]]. By the end of the century, it had passed to the Russian state, and the appanage princes finally lost their independence in 1573.{{sfn|Wieczynski|1976|p=197}}{{sfn|Boguslavsky|Kuksina|2001|p=78}}
== History == The {{ill|Principality of Novosil|ru|Новосильское княжество}} disintegrated into a number of [[appanage]]s in the 14th century, one of which was Odoyev. The prince of [[Novosil]], Roman Semyonovich, took part in the campaign against [[Principality of Tver|Tver]] in 1375, along with Grand Prince [[Dmitry Donskoy|Dmitry of Moscow]]. In December, the [[Golden Horde]] devasted Novosil and the rest of the principality. The following year, Roman Semyonovich settled in [[Odoyev]], although the principality may have separated after his death around 1402.<ref>Беспалов Р. А.

The princes of Odoyev called themselves princes of Novosil, and sometimes princes of Novosil and Odoyev until the late 14th century. They began to call themselves princes of Odoyev by the mid-16th century.<ref>Беспалов Р. А.
