Présentation de l'éditeur
In broadest outline, the history of the Russian people may be said to have been formed by the following factors. First, the original tribe, aS lavonic race dwelling somewhere north, of the Carpathians and sharing in the language, institutions, and temperament conunon to theS lavs. Secondly, the region, the vast open coimtry drained by theD nieper and the Volga, subject everywhere to painful extremes of heat and cold, but sharply divided into the forest zone of the middle north and the open, treeless steppes of the south. Thirdly, the neighbouring races, infinitely various, but almost always hostile. Fourthly, the two supreme institutions the Chiu ch and the Tsardom which created and steered the Russian State. Fifthly, the social classes developed by the political, economic and educational forces of the past two centuries, which have broken up the familiar Empire of the Tsars. Chronologically, the salient points in the narrative are as follows. The teeming Slavs move towards theD nieper, which they have reached by the seventh, century after Christ.
