In the early 9th century Russia was inhabited by Slavic tribes. In the late 9th century Vikings forged them into a nation centered on Kiev. (The Vikings first captured Novgorod in 862 and Kiev in 882). The new nation was called Rus and in time its Viking rulers adopted native customs and language. They were assimilated into Russian society. Kievan Rus was powerful nation and it traded with the Byzantine Empire. The Russians exported slaves, honey and furs. However after the ruler Yaroslav the Wise (lived 978-1054 and reigned 1019-1054) died Rus broke up into a federation of Princedoms. Furthermore the economic importance of Rus declined. From the 12th century the center of European trade shifted to Germany and Italy. Meanwhile in 988 Prince Vladimir converted to Greek Orthodox Christianity. His people followed. Then in 1169 Kiev was captured by Andrew Bogolyubsky, a Prince from the northeast. However he was assassinated in 1074 and the Russians continued to quarrel among themselves.

Then in the mid 13th century the Mongols stormed into Eastern Europe. In 1237 Khan Batu, the grandson of Genghis Khan invaded Russia. He captured and destroyed Ryazan and Moscow then Vladimir. The Mongols or Tartars then marched towards Novgorod but they were slowed by the thaw in the Spring of 1238. So they turned south. In 1240 they destroyed Kiev. In 1242 Batu established himself as ruler of a large part of eastern Europe, including Russia. His realm was called the Khanate of the Golden Horde. Its capital was at Sarai.

Although the Tartars at first destroyed towns and villages and massacred the inhabitants they afterwards let the Russian principalities run themselves (although they were forced to pay tribute to the Tartars and to supply soldiers for their army). Moreover the Tartars did not invade the Principality of Novgorod. The ruler Alexander Nevsky voluntarily submitted. In 1240 he defeated the Swedes on the Neva and in 1242 he crushed the Teutonic Knights at the Battle of the Ice (on the frozen Lake Peipus). However he wisely decided to submit to the Tartars. In 1263 his son Daniel became Prince of Moscow. Daniel annexed large amounts of surrounding territory before his death in 1303. His policy of annexing territory was continued by his successors. Huge amounts were taken during the reigns of Dmitry Donoskoy (1359-1389) and Vasily (1389-1425). Moscow or Muscovy gradually became more and more important. In 1326 the Metropolitan moved to Moscow.
