- | '''The history of [[Russia]]''' begins with that of the [[East Slavs]]. The first East Slavic state, [[Kievan Rus']], adopted [[Christianity]] from the [[Byzantine Empire]] in 988, beginning the synthesis of Byzantine and [[Slavs|Slavic]] cultures that defined Russian culture for the next millennium. Kievan Rus' ultimately disintegrated as a state, finally succumbing to [[Mongol]] invaders in the 1230s. During this time a number of regional magnates, in particular Novgorod and Pskov, fought to inherit the cultural and political legacy of Kievan Rus'. | + | |
