Rastislav ("Rastic", in modern Czech Rostislav) (died after 870) was the second prince of Great Moravia between 846 and 870.
After Mojmír's death in 846 was Rastislav designated by Eastern Francia king Louis the German to become the head of Great Moravia.
Eastern Francia was spreading it's influence through priests, who preached in German so in 862 Rastislav asked Byzantine emperor Michael III to send a bishop and teachers, who would bring the Evangelium to Slavic people in their own language.
