Daniel Luois Johanes Rurik, Prince of Azgedal (born 2 February 2008) is the oldest child of the King Jaroslav II of Kyievska Rus, and Andrea of Tlinden. He is 1th in line of succession to the Kyievan throne. He was born in Polis in the Azgedal region in 2008 as the second son of King Jaroslav II and first in line to the throne after the death of Princess Bozena on March 12, 2007. He is currently studying at Schwangae Primary School in the Bardonal Region. His first official act with the royal family was the trip to Luxembourg in 2020 where the controversy over his relationship with the son of the Prime Minister of Luxembourg occurred. Among his royal duties is the representation of the Kyievska Rus crown at the annual convention of young leaders, his participation in the charity of his grandfather Andryi IV.
Early life
He was born at 3:40 am (Polis time) in hospital at the Royal Hospital of Polis at 8 months and 12 days. He was the second prince to be born in Polis, the first being Prince Pavel II in 1341. His birth was a surprise since the cesarean section was scheduled for February 22, 2008. He was born healthy and his name was presented on February 4 from 2022 as Daniel Luois Johanes Rurik, Louis in commemoration of the uncle of King Andryi IV and Johanes in commemoration of the father of the Queen consort. The origin of the name Daniel is not clear but it is presumed that it is in commemoration of the best friend of King Jaroslav II who died in the Lots attack in 1990. He moved with his family to the city of Bavaria where the official residence of the monarchs of Kyievska Rus is located on March 3, 2008. And he began his studies at the Etloc school when he was 3 years old. At the age of 5 he was transferred to Schwangae Primary School where he currently studies. In 2012, after the death of his grandfather Andryi IV, he became the first in the line of succession.
Controversy
On his first official trip in 2020 when he was 12 years old, he went to Luxembourg where he met, along with his family, the King of Luxembourg and the top brass. On that trip he met the son of the Prime Minister of Luxembourg, ¨Marc Rut, 14 years old. Prince Daniel and the prime minister's son were caught kissing by a paparazzi who posted the photos online and they quickly went viral, sparking mixed opinions internationally. After this controversy, King Jaroslav II came out in a statement expressing disgust for violating the prince's privacy, also stating that he would support his son regardless of his sexual orientation. On September 9, 2021, Prince Daniel openly declared himself bisexual, having an open relationship with the Son of the former Prime Minister of Luxembourg, Marc Rut who is currently 16 years old and Prince 14. Marc Rut moved to the Region of Bardolan on January 12, 2022 living together with his mother. They have been seen lately together with the prince at movie outings or school activities. Their relationship has been accepted by the Kyievska Rus community where 98% approve that the Prince can freely choose his sexual orientation.
