The Kievan-Rus: Ukraine's Viking Founders - DOCUMENTARY
In this documentary, we look at the origins of the Kievan Rus. The Vikings who assailed the shores of Britain and France were mostly Norwegian or Danish. But Viking adventurers from Sweden were drawn east, to the Baltic Sea and beyond. What drove their wanderlust was the dirhem, a high-grade silver coin. In the 9th century, the Caliphate’s wealthy markets teemed with luxury goods. These coins found their way to Sweden, and sparked the curiosity of enterprising chiefs. On the Swedish island of Gotland, vast silver hoards filled with dirhems confirm the activity of Swedish Vikings trading and plundering in the Baltic.

Russia, the Kievan Rus, and the Mongols: Crash Course World History #20
If you're interested in learning more about the Russian government's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, check out this vlogbrothers video published on 3/15/2022: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMZYKxgc9TE
In which John Green teaches you how Russia evolved from a loose amalgamation of medieval principalities known as the Kievan Rus into the thriving democracy we know today. As you can imagine, there were a few bumps along the road. It turns out that our old friends the Mongols had quite a lot to do with unifying Russia. In yet another example of how surprisingly organized nomadic raiders can be, the Mongols brought the Kievan Rus together under a single leadership and concentrated power in Moscow. This set the stage for the various Ivans (the Great and the Terrible) to throw off the yoke and form ...

This set the stage for the various Ivans (the Great and the Terrible) to throw off the yoke and form a pan-Russian nation ruled by an autocratic leader. More than 500 years later, we still have autocratic leadership in Russia. All this, plus a rundown of some of our favorite atrocities of Ivan the Terrible, and a visit from Putin!

If you're interested in learning more about the Russian government's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, check out this vlogbrothers video published on 3/15/2022: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMZYKxgc9TE
In which John Green teaches you how Russia evolved from a loose amalgamation of medieval principalities known as the Kievan Rus into the thriving democracy we know today. As you can imagine, there were a few bumps along the road. It turns out that our old friends the Mongols had quite a lot to do with unifying Russia. In yet another example of how surprisingly organized nomadic raiders can be, the Mongols brought the Kievan Rus together under a single leadership and concentrated power in Moscow. This set the stage for the various Ivans (the Great and the Terrible) to throw off the yoke and form a pan-Russian nation ruled by an autocratic leader. More than 500 years later, we still have autocratic leadership in Russia. All this, plus a rundown of some of our favorite atrocities of Ivan the Terrible, and a visit from Putin!

The Druzhina were the elite knights of the Medieval Kievan Rus! Click the link https://www.blinkist.com/invicta in my description to start your free 7 day trial with Blinkist and get 25% off of a Premium membership.
This Units of History documentary explores the early history of Ukraine and Russia through the lens of the Elite Druzhina of the Kievan Rus. The video begins with the geography of eastern europe and the various peoples of early and late antiquity who came to occupy these lands. Among the most prominent of these were the Slavs who soon merged with the steppe and norse tribes that frequently entered their lands for trade and conquest. We cover the rise of the Kievan Rus under Prince Rurik and how his descendants came to carve out a vast domain with the help of their loyal bodyguards. It is these men who would eventually become the Druzhina that both served as the military and administrative backbone of the realm. The documentary next covers the equipment, organization, tactics, and service history of these Kievan Rus knights. Notable examples of their campaigns invovled the siege of Constantinople against the Byzantines, the Battle of Alta River agains the Pechenegs, and the Battle on the Ice against the Tutonic Order.
Stay tuned for more episodes on the history of the Kievan Rus as a part of our ongoing exploration of the history of Ukraine and the history of Russia.

Christianization of Kievan Rus'
Russia, no doubt, is a country with a rich history. There are many glorious and heroic events. Of course there are disputable moments too. Let’s try to mention the main stages in development of the Russian state and have a look at the brightest historical events. Before the formation of Kiev Russia there lived several Slavonic peoples. Their religion was paganism. Russia became Christian in 988. Christianity acceptance in Russia is connected with the rule of Valdimir Sviatoslavich who had chosen it among the existing religions of that period.

Why Did Russia Chose Christianity Over Islam? #funfacts
In the late 980's, Vladimir the Great faced a pivotal decision that would forever shape the destiny of Russia. This intriguing historical tale delves into the choice he made between Christianity and Islam, a choice that involved the very essence of Rus' celebrations – alcohol.
Vladimir's choice to Christianize Russia instead of Islamizing it was no ordinary decision. It was a choice driven by the deep-rooted love for festivities and the unity it brought to the Rus' people. The famous quote, "Drinking is the joy of the Rus', we can't go without it," encapsulates the heart of the matter.
As we explore this pivotal moment, we dive into the clash between the Rus' party spirit and the Islamic prohibition on alcohol. The Rus' people's attachment to celebration was undeniable, and Vladimir reco...

Russia, no doubt, is a country with a rich history. There are many glorious and heroic events. Of course there are disputable moments too. Let’s try to mention the main stages in development of the Russian state and have a look at the brightest historical events. Before the formation of Kiev Russia there lived several Slavonic peoples. Their religion was paganism. Russia became Christian in 988. Christianity acceptance in Russia is connected with the rule of Valdimir Sviatoslavich who had chosen it among the existing religions of that period.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Christianization of Kievan Rus' took place in several stages. In early 867, Patriarch Photius of Constantinople announced to other Orthodox patriarchs that the Rus', baptised by his bishop, took to Christianity with particular enthusiasm. Photius's attempts at Christianizing the country seem to have entailed no lasting consequences, since the Primary Chronicle and other Slavonic sources describe the tenth-century Rus' as firmly entrenched in paganism. Following the Primary Chronicle, the definitive Christianization of Kievan Rus' dates from the year 988 (the year is disputed), when Vladimir the Great was baptized in Chersonesus and proceeded to baptize his family and people in Kiev. The latter events are traditionally referred to as baptism of Rus' (Russian: Крещение Руси, Ukrainian: Хрещення Русі) in Russian and Ukrainian literature.

In the late 980's, Vladimir the Great faced a pivotal decision that would forever shape the destiny of Russia. This intriguing historical tale delves into the choice he made between Christianity and Islam, a choice that involved the very essence of Rus' celebrations – alcohol.
Vladimir's choice to Christianize Russia instead of Islamizing it was no ordinary decision. It was a choice driven by the deep-rooted love for festivities and the unity it brought to the Rus' people. The famous quote, "Drinking is the joy of the Rus', we can't go without it," encapsulates the heart of the matter.
As we explore this pivotal moment, we dive into the clash between the Rus' party spirit and the Islamic prohibition on alcohol. The Rus' people's attachment to celebration was undeniable, and Vladimir recognized the importance of preserving this tradition. This video delves into the thought process that led to his groundbreaking decision.
By Christianizing the nation, he found a way to blend spirituality and merriment, creating a unique synthesis that defined Russia's path forward.
