Kievan Rus: the Origin of East Slavic Civilization (gravity Book Series)

About This Novel

Sorting out the historical origins of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and other countries, the encyclopedia shows the ancient civilization of Eastern Europe. The Rus' Principality was a multi-ethnic country centered on Kiev and dominated by East Slavs from the 9th to the 13th century. Its ruling area is roughly equivalent to today's Ukraine, Belarus and parts of Europe in Russia. Rus is considered to be the common origin of civilization among Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. Historians customarily refer to this country as "Kievan Rus". With detailed research and vivid writing, it restores the ups and downs of the legendary lives and heroic stories of the grand dukes and ladies of Kievan Rus. In the 300-year history of the Rus' Principality, there have been constant collisions of war, commerce, diplomacy, and culture, and countless heroes and legendary stories were born. Rurik founded a dynasty named after him. Oleg and Igor went on an expedition to Byzantium. Mrs. Olga avenged her husband and opened the Regency Era of the Qingming Dynasty. Vladimir the "Red Sun", Yaroslav the Wise and Monomakh developed the country. At its most prosperous stage... However, the chaotic and bloody civil war and foreign aggression eventually caused Rus to fall apart. After 1169, the center of Rus' rule gradually moved from Kiev to the Principality of Vladimir in the northeast, and the unified Rus no longer existed. As the Mongolian cavalry set foot on the plains of Eastern Europe, Rus was permanently sealed in the treasures of history. However, the disintegration of the Rus' Principality established the main historical territory of today's three important Eastern European countries: Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. The light of East Slavic civilization still shines to this day.
