Since Daniel was a child, the Moscow Principality had been governed by tiuns (deputies), appointed by the Grand Prince of Vladimir and Tver Yaroslav Yaroslavich, Daniel's uncle.
Daniel took part in his brothers' - Dmitry Pereyaslavsky and Andrey Gorodetsky - struggle for the absolute right to govern Vladimir and Novgorod. In 1282, together with the Prince of Tver Svyatoslav Yaroslavich, Daniel turned against Dmitry. Since 1283, however, Daniel had been fighting on Dmitry's side, who would eventually become the Prince of Vladimir.
After Dmitry's death in 1294, Daniel became the leader of the Moscow-Pereyaslavl-Tver alliance against Andrey Gorodetsky. Daniel's participation in the struggle for Novgorod in 1296 indicated Moscow's increasing political influence.
In 1300, Daniel fought with Ryazan' and conquered Kolomna. After the death of Ivan Dmitryevich (Prince of Pereyaslavl) in 1302, Daniel made Pereyaslavl a part of the Moscow Principality.
During Daniel's reign, they built Bogoyavlensky monastery and Danilov monastery in late 1290s. Daniil Aleksandrovich has been canonized by the Russian Orthodox Church.

Daniil took part in his brothers' - Dmitri of Pereslavl and Andrey of Gorodets - struggle for the right to govern Vladimir and Novgorod.
Daniil's participation in the struggle for Novgorod in 1296 indicated Moscow's increasing political influence.
Daniil Andreev, born in 1906, was the son of Leonid Andreev (1871 - 1919), an eminent prose writer and dramatist, who fearlessly investigated the darkest depths of the human soul.
Daniil confessed that the writings of his father remained alien to him: the latter was a neo-realist skeptic, partly inclined to a decadent version of Satanism and Nietzscheanism, whereas Daniil received a Christian upbringing and searched for religious revelations throughout his intellectual development.
Daniil Andreev identified this feminine essence as Zventa-Sventana, whose approximate meaning he conveys as "the lightest of the light, the holiest of the holy" (6,3, 124).
