Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of Russian History
Russia of a.d. 920, newly Christianized, meant the region round Kiev, inhabited by Slavs and ruled over by the Scandinavian House of Rurik. In 1420 Russia had Moscow for her centre and the Tartars for her overlords, while her in habitants were a new and hybrid race of Slavs and Finns. Kiev, though still the object of their reverence, lay far beyond their frontier. In 1820 Alexander I., succeeding to the great Tsars Peter and Catherine, ruled over an imperial Russia which included half Europe and a still greater area in Asia. And to-day the birth or resurrection of Finland, Esthonia, Latvia, Lithu ania, Poland, and the Ukraine forces Russia to signify the Muscovite family struggling for self expression.
