and it was developed by him in the last century and until the last days of his life, krivoshiev. he did not just look into the future, in many ways he predicted it 3d virtual reality surround sound giant screens. what was not in his writings long before the implementation. this is his special vision pyotr dyagin ekaterina belova alena germanova. vladimir pokorev mikhail babarev evgeny leonov channel one, we are following the development of the event, and now on channel one, the continuation of the film baptism of russia the dull years dragged on, without military joys, without rich mining, some minor troubles and short trips. the squad murmured our old man is not a prince under the princes of great deeds, you will not wait from him. the kliknyaz is not fighting, and the princess is not prolific. why are they needed? igor knew what gossip was about for many years. she and

olga lived in love and harmony. but they didn't have any children. every year, nadezhda concealed grief to the husband who was struck by the curse of childlessness and woe to that prince, from whom the squad will turn away. warriors need campaigns, they need loot. and if they do not have love, they have the right to go to another prince. from over the years, kyiv began to resemble a sleepy kingdom. trade caravans along the dnieper went worse and worse in tsargrad, they began to press russian merchants in defiance of the agreement wrested from the greeks by the prophetic oleg

. maybe then the gods will change their wrath to mercy and send them a son. after a long preparation, a huge army of russians went out in a familiar way to tsargrad, they walked slowly, half of the army moved on horseback along the coast, every now and then they waited, the stragglers byzantium’s allies managed to inform the emperor of the roman about the campaign of rusov pansinopol, began to prepare for the siege, as in previous years there was no protection from the sea, the greek fleet fought with scratches in the ports of the city, they barely recruited 15 old small transport ships, but the city managed to prepare well russian ships began greek

fire. greek fire or liquid fire, the incendiary mixture of which greek sailors flooded enemy ships with the help of copper tubular siphon pumps, was invented in 673 by the greek-syrian engineer kalinnik the main components. the mixtures were quicklime. sulfur, saltpeter and crude oil, when in contact with water, the mixture ignited even more, but the range of the siphons was relatively small, so the flamethrower ship. it was necessary to approach as close as possible to the enemy fleet. roman ordered the shipbuilders to come and equipped those chilandia that were left at home, but place a device for throwing fire not only on the bow, but also on the root and on both sides. and they began

to throw fire in all directions when they saw rusa. it rushed ships into the sea, preferring to drown in the waves rather than burn in the fire, some weighed down with chain mail and helmets immediately went to the bottom of the sea and were no longer seen, while others floated even in the water, the russians continued to burn . fire, as if heavenly lightning they said, they have the greeks and let it send us from that and did not overcome them. it was a catastrophe, barely a tenth of the troops survived , igor himself miraculously escaped from the fiery bosporus , no one took care of organizing the retreat and on the way home, the remnants of the troops were mowed down by dysentery.

in kiev, igor returned in disgrace. but the horror of the pain of dishonor was not in vain. the gods accepted the sacrifice. the prince had a son. he was named in honor of the great princes oleg and the rurikandinavian names meant the holy and glorious svyatoslav. he would become a great warrior and there was no doubt about this. but how svyatoslav will remember his father as a decrepit, weak old man, that igor will leave his son the shame of tsargrad, there is no campaign, igor felt the strength in himself to conquer not only that he is the greeks of the whole world began to collect a new army for a new campaign, hired experienced warriors who

were famous throughout europe for their martial arts and new warriors, with whom the russians had previously been together. the greeks called the pechenegs panachekites, arabs, bajnak, the russian name pechenegs came from the word bechenegs, the descendants of biche, the turkic-speaking nomads called themselves by the ninth century, who migrated from the depths of central asia to the east european plain, the pechenegs were excellent riders and archers who knew how to control a horse without the help of reins. just by squeezing your knees, that was liberating shooting hands. from the saddle, their light cavalry would suddenly appear out of nowhere, plunder everything in its path, and rapidly disappear into nowhere. the pechenegs were practically elusive, since they wandered all year round by the beginning of the 10th century, the pechenegs. the hordes had already reached the house of the dnieper danube and went to the

black sea. the byzantine cities of the northern black sea region were well acquainted with the wild ferocity of the ponachekites, and when the strategist of the korsun of the ancient character found out that prince rusov igor was again going to tsargrad and saw the pechenegs in his army. he sent a panic letter to constantinople this time, emperor roman did not tempt fate and wait for the barbarians, under the walls of the throat, the tsar sent the best boyars to igor. with a pleading saying, do not go, but take what tribute did you remove? i will add oleg to the secret. igor called the squad and began to hold advice with her, said the squad of igor. if the king says so, then what else do we need without fighting to take gold and silver , does he know who will defeat whom? whether they are there or with the sea, who is in union not on the earth, because we walk, but in the

depths of the sea. all common death. friends, already did not believe in the fighting luck of her prince about the greek gifts defiantly, laid out near the camp were very tempting and the prince once again. listened to the squad. he agreed to make peace with the greeks. all gifts. he gave the pechenegs to his soldiers, released them to the bulgarian land for booty and returned with an army to kiev to zhenya and his son, now a winner. tonight in our program is the anniversary of the outstanding artist of the hot handsome man of my fellow countryman grigory leps, every georgian surname it matters. a. tell me, please, what means your real name. you competed

autumn was coming. and prince igor, as always went to the field, gathering. danis of the subject tribes with him was the senior squad of the boyars, and the younger squad of the youths was led by the voivode pigs first in the polyudye route, they began the lands, the drevlyans 30 years ago, these lands were anew. and the extremely cruelly conquered war had not yet been forgotten, and the squad did not stand on ceremony that they themselves did not let them take their strength. polyudii ended otnyazheskaya squad, was still dissatisfied. she said that igor's squad was a swineald, and they hurt him with weapons and clothes. and we 'll go naked to revenge with us the task and ourselves you’ll get it, and igor listened to us and returned with a small part of the squad, wishing for more wealth, the drevlyans, having heard that it was coming again, kept

sovetsk as their prince mal, if the volkovites got caught, they would endure the whole herd until they killed him like this and this one, if we don’t kill him, then the drevlyans will destroy us all, leaving the city and killing speed. igor, he was taken prisoner by them tied to tree trunks and torn apart by magnesium. the drevlyans sent their ambassadors to kiev, their proposal looked like. almost bullying after a brutal murder they marry the prince of kiev, olga, the widow of igor, for their tribal prince. in fact, it was rather not a proposal, but the requirements of the prince. mal, defeated and killed prince igor, all the property of the vanquished, including his wife and children. now it was to become the property of the prince. few. so

the bullish spoke, so it was instituted for centuries, when an embassy of 20 best drevlyansk husbands from the proposal appeared in kiev. olga to marry the prince, the little squad was ready, at the word of the princess, to take up swords. but instead, olga ordered nothing, without explaining to dig a deep hole in your yard. once upon a time, having solved the riddle, she became the wife of the prince. now she is the widow of a prince. she will solve riddles herself. and olga said to them i want to honor you tomorrow before my people. now go to your boat and lie down in the boat, and in the morning i will send for

you. and you say we won’t ride horses, we won’t go on foot, but carry us in a boat and they will lift you up to the master’s custom, a person lay down in a boat, only in one case. at their funeral. but the drevlyansk ambassadors did not know this custom and brought them to olga's yard and how they carried them and threw them together with the boat into the pit and leaning towards the pit olga asked them if honor was good for you, they answered the pots of igor's death and ordered them to be filled alive and covered them up. for a long time in the princely court there were funny groans of those buried alive. olga sent her embassy to the drevlyans with the words, if you want a princess for you, send the best people to go with great honor

because of your prince, otherwise the people of kiev will not let me go. and when did the drevlyans come olga she ordered to prepare a bath, saying, having washed herself like that. come to me and heat the bathhouse and the drevlyans entered it and began to wash and locked the bathhouse behind them and olga ordered to light it from the door, and then everything was burned down. still not settled in the princess’s yard , flakes, soot, as olga ordered the squad to prepare for a campaign, sent the drevlyans to say , i’m already coming to you, prepare honey and many in the city where my husband was killed and i will create a feast for my husband , ritual commemoration of the deceased was recognized as not only a feast but also a sacrifice, but olga did not ask for sacrificial animals to be prepared. their role was to be performed by the

drevlyans themselves. and when the drevlyans got drunk, he ordered the destruction to cut down the drevlyans, they cut off 5,000 of them, and olga returned to kiev and gathered an army for the rest. after the death of igor, svyatoslav was considered a prince, according to custom, it was the prince who had to start the battle first , throwing a mine, svyatoslav was not yet three years old. the father did not have time to put him on a horse, the cognac brought the governor to the prince in armor. mother dressed, heavy military, spear, little svyatoslav did not hold. it escaped from his hands and fell in front of the horse, but the custom was observed and the voivode roared the prince had already started pulling his squad of princes. the battle was short-lived, the drevlyan army fled under the protection of the fortress walls. summer was running out olga

unsuccessfully led the siege of the capital of the drevlyans iskra, the wall of the drevlyans defended themselves with the despair of the doomed. it will rain soon, we must go. but olga could not leave without victory even on the last night of the summer, when the black was not cut off often from a mischievous person, such nights are called sparrows. the decision has come. olga she said that she would lift the siege as soon as she took a dove, and a sparrow from each yard, the drevlyansk land would remember this legendary tribute for a long time forever. olga, having distributed the wars to each dove to each sparrow, ordered to tie each smoldering labor, and when it began

to get dark, olga ordered her soldiers to let the birds in and they flew into their nests, pigeons into dovecotes, and the sparrows caught fire, where are the dovecotes, where are the cages, where sheds and haylofts and there was no yard where it would not burn and could not be extinguished, as all the yards immediately caught fire. from now on, only kiev will be the only capital of the united slavic lands. and olga, from the drevlyansk ashes, went with her whole retinue to novgorod. bypassing all the novgorod lands

, having looked at the garrison and counting the cities, the villages, the villages , she announced the new rules of gathering to the novgorodians. olga divided all the lands into graveyards, that is, the district from which a certain size was to be collected. dani lesson according to the guests got its name from the inns for the guests, where the prince stayed with his retinue. and where it was necessary to bring tribute from surrounding families. it was the first administrative and tax reform in russian history. the division into churchyards existed for more than 800 years and was abolished only in 1775. the name according to gost remained for a long time for large villages with a church and a cemetery. thirst for revenge burned olga and there was no one to take revenge on. the syllables pressed against the wall when she

passed by, and the old warriors, hardened in battles next to him, silently lowered their eyes. she traveled around the lands, examined the cities, ordered, judged , executed, entered again, examined, ordered spent days in the saddle. the pain of a tired body drowned out the heat that incinerated her from the inside. she had never seen such people before. in the eyes of this strange man in black robes

, there was no fear, no aggravation, no pity , there was something else that olga could not understand, as if she looked into another world, where there is no pain, no malice, and even death itself. . since then, she began to sometimes come to the greek metochion of the church of st. elijah, presbyter gregory turned out to be bulgarian by birth, spoke slavonic unusually but quite understandable. sometimes i opened a book, which kirill had translated from greek into slavonic many years ago, and you heard what the ancients said, love your neighbor and hate your enemy. but i say to you, love your enemies, bless them, do good to those who curse you

and hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you. wild, crazy , impossible words, her whole being resisted them. she could not understand what kind of god who allows himself to be executed and does not punish his executioners, but pray for them how can god ever die. god can do anything answered presbyter gregory and an incomprehensible pain stirred in her chest, as if her heart buried under mount peplos was alive again the priest never asked for anything, did not convince of anything, but he always had an answer to any question, even to that , which olga had not yet had time to ask him. lord, how many times should i forgive my brother who sins against me up to seven times, or

jesus tells him not to tell you until seven, but until now 70 times. as the years passed, it got closer old age. the son svyatoslav became an adult and olga saw with alarm that being a ruler, he was bored with interest, only weapons, horses, armor, military mistakes, the prince should be the ruler first and only then olga knew what happens when the prince follows the lead of the squad a few more years svyatoslav will come of age and become a prince. and that then endless campaigns only undermine the state. olga thought about the experience of other countries that hold the thousand-year-old aramaic empire why is this a huge country inhabited presbyter gregory does not crumble among various tribes and peoples there was an answer to this question as well.

jesus told him. i am the bread of life, whoever comes to me will not hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst and i will raise him up on the last day. a small number of ships and warriors walked in the usual way from the varangians to the greeks just enough to defend themselves in the event of an attack. olga was not interested in prey. she went to the very heart of the empire to get what this empire lives on. the soldiers were uncomfortable, but no one dared to ask the princess about the purpose of the campaign. she, as usual, did not talk to anyone, only whispered, sometimes with a strange man in black robes, presbyter gregory from the greek metochion. for the first time, the ruler of russia came to

constantinople not with war, but with peace. the greeks considered that olga came for diplomatic purposes to revise the terms of the agreement signed by igor for some time, her ships were kept on the way to the city in the golden horn bay, the reception was given the most solemn of all possible. it took place in the magnawa hall for ceremonies, intended for reception in the greatest and most significant for the empire of foreign lords jonah . she will conduct the sacrament of the baptism of the archantis, ross, at her own request during the baptism of the archantis. olga will receive the christian name elena blessed

olga stood with her head bowed, and like a sea sponge absorbs the dew of heaven, so the teachings of the divine she received the most reverent patriarch with tears of joy-creating tears in sweetness. she poured herself over herself in such a way that she wetted the earth and bowed, falling to her feet. holy patriarch, said the soulful testaments that you bequeath to me . yes, i will. i am according to your words and yes, save me from the nets of the devil and from the wiles of the evil one, your prayers and the grace of god have not left me.

her land. but for this, books and church utensils are needed. and most importantly, people, priests, bishops , the patriarch did not give her anything but a blessing. olga's time was running out, svyatoslav had already turned 16. a little more he would become the sovereign prince of a christian, he did not complain, so olga could not endlessly wait for help from constantinople and she sent envoys to the west with a franc. the state from the first tone was called the east frankish kingdom and was the most powerful of all states. in a few years, it will turn into a holy roman empire that will claim to be the main patroness of western christianity. western and eastern christianity rome and constantinople by the middle of the 10th

century diverged only in the political plane, but the church was one, the universal, apostolic, catholic church of christ princess olga , turning to the west, was going to change only church jurisdiction, but unbelief the great church schism, which divided the church into roman catholic and orthodox, will occur only after 100 years, if i fight to accept baptism from the hands of the pope, then history would have gone completely along a different path. in 962 , russia was one step away from becoming forever the distant eastern outskirts of the latin world. and the bishop returned from kiev, unable to succeed in anything for which he was sent, and convinced of the futility of his efforts. some of his companions were killed. he himself

barely escaped after great hardships. princess olga was late. in kiev, the young prince svyatoslav igorevich was already ruling, and he did not want to tolerate any missionaries in his capital. svyatoslav was sure that, having adopted christianity, it did not matter from the greeks or from the franks. he will instantly lose his authority as a prince and a warrior, because any warrior will despise the one whose god was born in a barn next to cattle and died a shameful death along with the robbers. svyatoslav does not need such a god. he needs strength and power. the third one does not have a wife from the concubine of the slave malushka. olga

persuaded her son to accept baptism, but he did not even think of listening to this. i have known god, my son, and i rejoice. if you know god, you will also rejoice. he no longer paid attention to that. how can i accept a different faith alone? and my team will laugh. she told him. if you are baptized, everyone will do the same.

the prince gave the name vladimir to his third son . the great ruler was sure that he had won up in a dispute with his mother. he believed that the very birth of his son was a sign confirming that his prince svyatoslav was right. he did not listen to his mother continuing to live

according to pagan customs. however, olga loved her son svyatoslav and spoke. may the will of god be done. if god wants to have mercy on my mouth, my russian land, then he will put in their hearts the same desire to turn to god that he gave me and they say so she prayed. for the son and for the people every night and day.

svyatoslav was preparing for a big military campaign, and his mother, he did not want to listen. her son has grown up. and so he goes on his first trip. she can only pray that svyatoslav will return alive and only in order to again leave. 964 the campaign against the vyatichi svyatoslav defeated and annexed to the russian state the last of the tribal unions of the eastern slavs, who had never been under the rule of kiev 965 the campaign against the khazars after a series of battles of the khazar kaganates ceased to exist 966 the campaign against the volga bulgaria

svyatoslav with fire and sword passed through throughout the middle and lower volga in 968, a campaign against bulgaria, the danube ballets, all svyatoslav ruined 80 bulgarian cities, defeating, bolgar svyatoslav sat in pereslavtsi city in ustinon here he liked it, and he was thinking about moving the capital from the dnieper to the danube and then it would be possible to go further and was fast, like a park course and fought a lot on campaigns, but did not carry any boilers with him to azov. he drank meat, but thinly sliced ​​horse meat and roasted it on coals, so he ate, he did not have a tent, but slept, shepherding the carpenter with a saddle in his head. all the rest of his warriors were the same and sent to other lands with the words i’m going to you from kiev miraculously broke through the end and

brought a letter the words of this letter were bitter, like steppe wormwood. you are a prince looking for a foreign land and oh you take care of your own, you will lose us, because the pechenegs and your mother and your children almost took it. if you don’t come and protect us, then they will take us, and so will we. don't you really feel sorry for your fatherland, the old mother of your children for many decades, kiev has not seen nomads on its walls. they went far into the steppe, before the onslaught of the pechenegs. the horde was held back by the khazar shield, but svyatoslav broke this shield. when the prince went to the danube and it could not have occurred to him that someone would dare to raid his capital, the city was defenseless, under the princess

only the small wild squad remained. horde of pechenegs under the walls. kiev caused panic horror. after a few weeks of siege , famine began in the city. a little more and the people of kiev would have opened the gates with the pechenegs, if not for princess olga managed to keep the city from panic and surrender from day to day. they were waiting for the return of prince svyatoslav every day lasted longer than eternity, and only when they saw from the walls that the pechenegs were hastily breaking camp , svyatoslav was already close. the army went almost without halts, sending a squad to take revenge on the pecheneg insolence the prince entered the city. he was greeted with tears of joy in the courtyard of the tower, children and

households ran out. and only the mother was gone. for the first time in her life, olga did not meet her son. entering her room, he was frightened. on the throne of the book, not in her clothes, sat a deep old woman. the siege of kiev, excitement and fear for the grandchildren exhausted kol genoy she was afraid, now only one thing, that she would not have time to wait for her son. svyatoslav waited as a child put his head on her knees. and the princess suddenly realized that she was crying for the first time since she saw the newborn svyatoslav svyatoslav

told his mother not to sit in kiev, i want to live in pereyaslavets on the tanai, because there is the middle of the earth. all the blessings of mine flow there , olga answered him when you bury me. go wherever you want in three days olga died and wept, for her, weeping great her son and many of her and all the people and carried and buried her at the chosen place. olga, however, bequeathed not to commit it three times, since she had a priest with her, and he buried the blessed one. in the tiny church of st.

elijah, only the closest were able to get up. weapon they didn’t take them off at the entrance, but at this strange funeral the swords never left their scabbards, the priest, the bulgarian, said something endlessly in a singsong voice, the words were familiar slavic, and their meaning was incomprehensible to the deceased, they tried not to look, because after an hour she will have to be buried in the ground. we tried not to think. the son silently cried for the first and last time in his life. one of the grandsons looked at the flame of the candle in front of him for a long, long time, without looking away, until it darkened before his eyes. and only after that he looked up at the icon. 30 years after her death, the grandson of the prince, vladimir, orders

that the remains of the book not of olga be transferred to the church of the most holy theotokos when the grave is opened, olga's body will be untouched by decay, and this will be the first in russian history the appearance of imperishable relics in the 16th century. princess olga will be canonized as a saint equal-to-the-apostles along with mary magdalene, the enlightener of georgia nina and the greek empress helena. whose name did olga take at baptism? she was a harbinger of the christian land, like dawn before dawn. she was the first of the russians to enter the kingdom of heaven, her sons praise her as their initiator, for even in death she prays to god for russia. he woke up suddenly, as

if someone had been next to him from a blow. he couldn't see him. he did not see anything at all, he was blind, he is prince vladimir of kiev, the winner of the lord of the warriors. words that i heard in my childhood came back to my memory. sunday and life was the same, then in the bututin message, when prince

vladimir svyatoslavich was 4 years old, playing on the river bank, he stumbled and fell into the water into the very rapids and the river dragged him like a chip, and he screamed and called, but no one heard him imminent death was, but a huge stone came across on the way and he clung to that stone and thus saved him for a long time sitting on a huge wave, shaking from the cold and experienced fear. and suddenly, with instant icy clarity, he realized he was alone. and if he wants to survive, he needs to rely only on himself.

three years old, vladimir was excommunicated from his mother. i almost didn’t see my father either, svyatoslav continuously fought the hieropolk brothers, and oleg were non-native only his half-mother was malusha, svyatoslav’s wife was not just a concubine, although she occupied a high position as a housekeeper in the court of princess olga formally, vladimir had equal rights with his brothers oleg and yaropolk, he was the son of a prince, in fact, the word radich son of a slave was the only klim close person. they brought the princely court. for vladimir, his uncle dobrynya became

kiev was not a state ruled by a princess, olga now she was gone and svyatoslav decided to involve his sons. they are not quite yet. the oldest matured was only 12, but with each there were governors appointed by the prince. in the year 970, svyatoslav planted the yaropolks in kiev, and the novgorodians came to oleg the dormitioners. asking for a prince, and svyatoslav told them, ask vladimir, and the novgorodians took vladimir to themselves, and he went with his uncle to novgorod . he thought that the novgorodians had sent him away as unnecessary. he saw them as rude and

noisy varangians from the guards, they were poverty-stricken kiev warriors, gloomy, overgrown with beards, painted with terrible patterns, hung with amulets. vladimir tried to admire kiev a little more and dreamed of how he would someday return to this city as a powerful adult, like his father. and his vast army will follow him. life in novgorod turned out to be much more interesting than he expected, vladimir, what kind of backwater is there? on

at the market a motley crowd spoke different languages ​​gourmands swiss with robber mugs red beards, iranians franks in silk turbans in velvet cloaks, whoever was not there vladimir quickly got used to the local order and lived soul to soul with the novgorodians. he selflessly studied martial arts from the varangians, leaving the matter to be decided, and not to appear to his uncle dobrynya dobrynya sent for the prince three times to go and finally administer the court. the boy was the answer. hardly older than himself? he hacked to death with an ax at the auction in broad daylight a certain alien

person according to the novgorod law. everyone who kills an unconvicted person must be executed. the case was clearer than ever, the prince was only required to approve the verdict. but vladimir was silent, looking at the murderer, and he calmly awaited his fate and did not ask for mercy. the killer was called the tins of the family for a century. i had to flee from my native country with my mother and teacher to the sea. the ship was captured by northern estonian pirates and sold into slavery by their master. axe. then the catch was too small to take revenge after the boy found his uncle in a short squad, bought him out of slavery and took him to novgorod for many

years, they were killed and the teacher remained not avenged. and today, olaf accidentally met the same clerk in the novgorod market and cut his skull open with an ax. olaf was somewhat similar to himself. but vladimir would hardly have been able to take revenge on the offender with such desperate courage. and the prince said. since the murdered teacher was the defendant, like a father, the murder can be considered blood feud the law is not broken. he orders the prince to release the defendant from here and take him to the younger squad. vladimir did not yet know that he had saved from death a man who would become his only friend.

and svyatoslav said we have nowhere to go, whether we want or not, we must fight or russian, but we will lie down here, we will become strong, and i will go ahead of you, if my head lies down, take care. and the wars answered, where your head lies, there your heads are folded. the battle began with a powerful onslaught of russian regiments. at the head of the army , prince svyatoslav rus fought shoulder to shoulder with his warriors with the despair of the doomed, and this in itself inspired

fear, only the heavy cavalry managed to stop the frantic pressure of the barbarians. they fought until dark, but they did not manage to achieve a significant advantage, nor did they manage to achieve it on the other side. for another year , battles continued with varying success, until the emperor of joanzemis himself led the greek army. after several bloody battles, the russian army was exhausted to the limit. and the svyatoslav miskiem entered into negotiations. according to the agreement of 971, the russians had to leave bulgaria and the greeks to provide everything russian army provision for 2 months of russia byzantium made peace, became military allies and restored trade relations svyatoslav with his battered and damaged army, of which there was barely a third left on the

way back. he did not know that the low joans concluded an agreement on peace and mutual assistance not only with him, but with pecans, backing him up with a large amount of gold. svyatoslav the boat went to the rapids and told him the governor. go around the prince on the threshold on horseback and stand at the thresholds of the pechenegs and did not listen to him and went in the boats and attacked him you smoke pecheneg and killed svyatoslav and took his head and made a cup in the cave, having served it and drank from it. dobrynya said that his father was no more. vladimir will remember this moment for the rest of his life. for the death of prince svyatoslav, the pechenegs

avenged his eldest son yaropolk, prince of kiev, he went on a campaign against them and patted them so that the pechenegs even agreed to pay kiev the tribute of the voivode to the priesthood was an old pig, who had put on campaigns with his grandfather igor and with the father of the svyatoslav prince was a greek woman, former nun from greek monastery, which svyatoslav brought back from a campaign a few years ago as a prisoner and married off as a son, for the sake of her rare beauty that his wife is a yaropolk christian. didn't bother at all. there were many christians around him. kiev was one step away from baptism. ambassadors from the pope of rome arrived to chieropolk, but the missionaries and papal ambassadors did not have time to do anything in russia, the war began. prince

alex was doing the traditional fishing and driven hunting in his trees in the drevlyansk forest. what was his amazement, and then rage. yes suddenly he saw a stranger rushing through his forest. oleg was on his own land. in his possession , the appearance of strangers here was not just insolence. it was sacrilege, princely fishing was a sacred act that consolidated the power of the descendant of the heavenly gods over the earth and its creatures. the son of the kiev governor unequivocally showed oleg that he considers her lands his own. oleg accepted the challenge with his people. he caught up with someone else's hunt and killed it all to the last person. according

to the law, oleg was right, but in kiev they could not just leave this murder just like that. holy father a daring lute was one of the most well-born boyars of yaropolk, having learned about the death of his son, he demanded from yaropolk that he go to war against oleg refused. ice did not belong to his relatives and the law of blood feud did not work. but oleg was yaropolk's brother. the confrontation between the prince and his governor lasted for 2 years, and in the end , the old varangian of the svenelty, who descended half of europe and survived two princes, defeated yaropolk in the spring of 975. the kiev squad

invaded the land of the drevlyans. alex, in turn, gathered his squad and went out to meet the regiment. for the first time among the ruriks, an internecine war broke out for the first time a brother went to war against his brother , both sides turned out and in the battle that began, yaropolk's colleague won. oleg, with his soldiers , ran to the city through the ditch. a bridge and people were thrown over the city gates. crowding. on it they pushed each other down and pushed oleg off the bridge into the ditch. yaropolk. entering the city of olegs. he seized power and sent to look for his brother and they looked for him, but they did not find him. and one drevlyan said i saw how yesterday they pushed him off the bridge and sent yaropolk to these brothers

and they pulled out the corpses, tearing them from morning until noon and found oleg under the corpses, they carried him out and laid him on the carpet and yaropolk came, wept over him and said pig. look, this is what you wanted to ring. it was silent. now yaropolk has become, though involuntary, but a murderer to his brother according to the law of blood feud. he had to take revenge on his younger brother, vladimir, the war would continue. and if the pig of ice is lucky, princes, there are each other's guys. now it only remained to wait for vladimir to come from novgorod. but he did not come; the news of these terrible events reached vladimir in a month and now the prince of novgorod had to accept. the first

independent decision in my life. with this choice. he did not have, but svyatoslav had only three sons. now one of them is dead and must be avenged. this has been done for centuries. vladimir hardly felt any warm feelings for a stranger. in general, for him, oleg and it did not matter from now on yaropolk became. for him, the millstones of the pagan law of blood feud turned inexorably like a blood feud, if vladimir wants remain a prince if he wants to be a leader in the eyes of his people and finally, if he wants to become a man in his own eyes, he must take revenge. in the summer of 976, he was no longer in novgorod. vladimir decided on a

desperate step, taking with him a few jaws of the prince's treasury and faithful, dobrynya, he went overseas. on the bow of the drakar sat two almost the same age as the young prince of novgorod and the former slave of the stream of norwegian kings. both were approaching the land of their ancestors. land of northern gods and heroes. at this moment they are both two exiles sailing towards the unknown.

when the painful journey through all the storm was already coming to an end and they sailed past the rocky coast of the norwegian jords, on the starboard side. suddenly the water bubbled up. leaden waves rushed in a circle and opened up, the rowers boiling with foam abyss rushed to the oars and with one powerful jerk threw the ship away from the place where the boiling sea was already sucked into a monstrous funnel. vladimir shuddered, imagining himself inside this hydrogen

with each circle. closer to death they said that this whirlpool sometimes throws out what it has absorbed, probably, even from this abyss you can get out alive, but for this you need to decide to go towards death. novgorodians did not like to remember prince vladimir a year ago. he, like a beaten puppy, fled across the seas and there was no news of him, he probably disappeared there , what kind of prince is he or is he fleeing from the

war in novgorod? vague disturbing rumors are again naughty, in the varangian sea, dishonoring dashing, in attack, robs everyone indiscriminately and there is no control over it, and when on a dank autumn morning , dragon muzzles appeared from the fog. the city was in a panic. drakars, one after another, moored to the gangplank. at the front stood a young konong to rob, it seemed that no one was going to tall fellows, one to one armed to the teeth, calmly and confidently landed on the shore. they carefully carried out a woman of dazzling beauty with a silver scythe in her hand, thick with full breasts and a huge pregnant belly, which means she wants to settle down for a long time. novgorodians, moved denser. and novgorod gasped, it was the missing

prince. vladimir, instead of a cowardly puppy, a young lion returned. having gone beyond the sea with a handful of people, vladimir returned with a large squad. they were northern sea robbers. vikings now yaropolk was waiting for the war. navy day parade tomorrow at the first pentalgin extragel against pain in muscles and joints, it contains the highest dosage of a substance for more inflammation and a special component for better

kiev and booty. a huge army was expected. vladimir went along the ancient path from the varangians to the greeks. just as 100 years ago, a cloak was going to kiev, far ahead ran rumors about a prince who knows no fear and knows no pity. vichey stood ancient rich, polotsk, the power of kiev did not extend to him; the prince of scandinavian origin was independent of the rurikoviches and was not connected with them in any way, when northern rus went to war against southern rus, the middle polotsk had to make a choice each of the players was looking for a strategic partner for the coalition. the decision of polotsk, with its choice between kiev and novgorod , now determined the entire balance of power, a decision that could provide support for the strip suggested itself. volodya in addition to two sons. there was exactly the issue of her name. fire in the fall of 976 matchmakers arrived in polotsk from

both yaropolk and vladimir. usually the father decided the fate of the daughter, but not in the case of the father's rogena, the favorite. she always did only what she wanted to go for the iropolka herself, and i won’t go for vladimir, raneda said. i don't want to take off my shoes. everyone knew that the mother of prince vladimir was a slave, the insult was intentional and public. vladimir watched with interest as the uncle choked with rage, talking about kindred words and thought, the union of polotsk and kiev cannot be allowed, the uncle is offended. this is bad girl. again to you. it's good. dobrynya did not understand. why is vladimir silent? maybe he didn't hear it. it was she who told the prince about you, i don’t want to take off my shoes even robitichich. what to be? therefore

, vladimir calmly answered or the bride does not want to take off her shoes. and he smiled, so dobrynya was pierced by frost on the skin. everything was right in the princely palace , the ambassadors from kiev were about to arrive to lead the rogneds to the wedding with yaropolk, shouts were heard outside the window. the clatter of hooves came pushed the girls away, tangled in sundresses scattered across the floor, rushed to the window and staggered back into the yard. it was not the people of kiev who entered, but the shaggy varangians trampling on the horses of the chopped polotsk guards. vladimir took the city and the ragvolod himself captured both his wife and his daughter and was with her in front of her father and her mother, then vladimir killed her father, and took himself as his wife, and called her name and sent her. the wedding ceremony of undressing the

groom meant the bride's recognition of the power of her future husband the arrogance of the rogneda and the anger of vladimir turned this symbolic ritual into a monstrous bloody reality girl, forcing her parents to look at it, and at the end of the flour, kill them in cold blood. even for the ruthless time of prince vladimir, this was too much. polotsk was burned to the ground, and the lands of the principality departed, vladimir the unfortunate heat of the nest, scolded in front of his parents, not only will vladimir's wife become legal, she will later give birth to four sons. during the war with yaropolk, vladimir was already married and had a first-born above glory; polygamy in russia, as in other

pagan lands, was quite common. how the more wives a man could afford, the more power he wielded in the eyes of those around him. vladimir was gaining strength, increasing and his harem , while vladimir’s personal relations with the sognedas throughout their life together will abound in sharp turns, burning love hatred, sealed with blood, and the capital with them , relatives had to give birth to vladimir for many years and exiled and chalk by that time he had already many wives and it became, she was indignant. one day he came to her bed. and when he fell asleep, she wanted to stab him with a knife and he happened to wake up and grab her hand. she reproached him. here he killed my father and filled his land. and now you don't love me or this child. he ordered her to put on her wedding

dress and sit on a clean bed in the mansions in order to execute her, and she did so, but put a naked sword into her hand. vladimir came and exclaimed so he thought that you were here and threw down his sword. and he called the boyars and told them everything. they told him not to kill. you are her for this child, but restore her very much. wow, yes, and son his. vladimir founded the city and gave it to him. and he called him izyaslavlen. when vladimir approached kiev, they already knew there. about the bloody stripe wedding, the city

is well prepared for the siege. but vladimir was not going to sit for months under the kiev walls, not to try to storm them. he did not want to destroy the war, kiev magic city of his dreams. all he needed was an iropolk. he sent scouts to the besieged city to look for a traitor in the immediate environment of prince yaropolk. governor fornication agreed to sell his prince, who had lately occupied a position from the vinylda and enjoyed the full confidence of the gerapolk. vladimir promised fornication a place for himself and the greatest honor fornication convinced his prince to leave, kiev, so as not to buy innocent people in vain, and yaropolk and his retinue fled to the town of his homeland. prince vladimir solemnly for a taste, slowly entered kiev

. already at the gates, he suddenly remembered his childhood dream of returning here as an adult, courageous , powerful, like his father, and that his myriad army would follow him. everything he ever wanted he got any of his desires were fulfilled, he was the chosen one, the favorite of the gods, and who dared his opponent. he said fornication to yaropolk. you see how many warriors your brother has, we cannot overcome them; make peace with your brother. and yaropolk agreed with him, so it will be, and sent the bastard. vladimir came true, where your dream i bring yaropolk to you. and yaropolk came to vladimir

when he entered the door, two varangians lifted him with swords, armpits, deeper, closed the door and did not let his own enter after him. and so yaropolk was killed. well, here we are, brother. iropolk, did not even have time understand what had happened in his eyes flashed immeasurable surprise. yes, it has remained so. vladimir accomplished blood vengeance, he ascended to the pinnacle of power. that he can rightfully be proud of himself. vladimir generously

rewarded and honored the betrayer of fornication in front of all kiev for three days. and on the fourth he ordered to seize him and judge him publicly too. the prince said to the astonished fornication. as promised, i honored you as my friends. now i judge, as a traitor and murderer of my master, and gave him to weeping, the varangian warriors of vladimir considered this fair and heartily laughed at the robber wit of their prince. they adored him such a leader, determined by incredible luck, who knows no barriers. the pride of any viking now kiev the golden dream of his childhood belonged to him undividedly the young prince firmly, learned the lessons of his anxious youth in the end. only strength decides everything, in order to be an authoritative

ruler, it is necessary to fight and fight successfully for the first 8 years of his reign, vladimir made less than 10 large campaigns. he fought even more often than his father, but unlike svyatoslav, the conquest of distant lands was not his goal. the routes of all vladimir’s campaigns passed along the radii of an almost regular circle in the center of which kiev was located. floors, smolensk pskov novgorod rostov he was paid tribute by the tribes of the edwigs in the weight of the chud mary vyatichi relatives of the lensians embale, the cities of suzdal and vladimir volynsky were laid in all subject

in the cities of kiev, vladimir planted his scoundrels, the most experienced and authoritative of the governors of the boyars, senior druzhinnikov. they had no ties with the population of the regions that were to be ruled and were personally devoted to prince vladimir. having put things in order on earth, vladimir wanted to streamline the higher spheres. he planned to turn kiev into the sacred center of all russian lands. on the hill, the splendor of the princely palace, a temple was built with huge idols of the gods for the perun hill. vladimir selected personally. vladimir designated a role in state of secular and religious power, in fact. it was an attempt to turn beliefs into a state religion, and the establishment of a hierarchy of deities with a perun at the head was the first step towards

martial arts. but vladimir, of course, did not know this, he asserted his power both on earth and under earth and in heaven, and so that no one doubted the absolute of his power, he also took on the functions of the high priest. now all the grandiose offerings on the platform to you on the hill in the presence of the entire population of kiev were personally headed by the prince vladimir and everyone, young and old, saw how prince vladimir looked like perun or whether this platform looked like prince vladimir it can’t be that branitsky created the druzhba ensemble for him and, of course, edita stanislavna was the decoration of this ensemble, that we didn’t come any those are so beautiful. i

feast once a week in the gridnitsa to come there to all the boyars and all the people and warriors and rulers and the best husband under the prince and the demon of the prince there was a lot of meat, beef and poultry and expensive fish and vegetables at those dinners and oil and everything else prepared by hands and drinking, various wines and various honeys, vladimir wanted to be in the eyes of his people, generous, like the sun, pouring out warmth of light, the squad was especially important for him. each warrior must be personally devoted to his prince and everyone must feel his paternal care. even if this warrior himself is suitable for the young prince's father. vladimir loved these wild holidays with all his heart. he was young. he did everything with grandeur and power, and he fought and feasted by all accounts he was a

winner, and the winner gets everything life no longer dragged him, like a chip, life boiled intoxicated foam, he scooped it up with a full ladle and was killed by its sweetness. and his thirst became. everything is stronger. vladimir was defeated by the lust of women. cancer does not give him a wife from her, he had four sons and for the glory of mstislav yaroslav vsevolod and two daughters from a greek woman he had svyatopolk and the czech republic no higher than glory and from one wife of svyatoslav mstislav from bolgar neither boris and gleb and he had 300 concubines vyshgorod 300 in belgorod stopped up to 200 and he fed me in fornication, leading to married women and spilling a girl, and the incredible voluptuousness of the russian prince was legendary throughout in europe, however, the masculine strength and temperament of vladimir were a reason for pride

, another proof that their leader to all the princes is a prince, who, perhaps not a man at all, but a god, a human guise, and only vladimir himself knew that the cheerful rampage on the feathers, endless , flat joy grandiose performances on perun hill. all this is just an attempt to drown out the incomprehensible tormenting anguish, which has recently been constantly slutty in his heart, the further the more obvious it became that it was not the fault of the sacrificial it cannot be filled with blood, as if a rainbow veil has fallen from the eyes. it turned out that no one needs huge idols and magnificent ceremonies at all, except perhaps the magi of the townspeople came to the platform to the hill only under duress on official holidays,

many druzhinniks and varangians and slavs. they didn’t believe for a long time, they didn’t trust in thor or in peru only in their sword and fighting luck for sacrifice, they appeared only in order to go to the feast later. vladimir , like oxen uphill, a heavy load that no one needs, and in the depths of his soul it is colder, he more and more often realized that this burden is not needed, and even his closest relatives did not want to participate in the prince's sacred rites, the old norwegian friend, the ol, never made sacrifices, treated them indifferently to idols . and one day the king spoke to him, and olaf replied that i would never be afraid of those gods that have neither hearing, nor sight, nor consciousness, and from this i can draw a conclusion, sir. what is

their nature, what do you present to me every time with a sweet expression on your face, except when when you are there and offer sacrifices to them, and then you always seem unfortunate to me, when you are there and from this i conclude that those gods that you worship must be the right darkness. in the summer of 983, prince vladimir returned from a campaign against the vetyagi. the victory was complete never before the kiev princes could not lay their hands on the land of this ferocious lithuanian yatvingian tribe in battle, they were distinguished by their exceptional love of freedom. the land was located, the border between poland, the prussians and the western palabian slavs the key to the entire southern baltic, the kiev prince, as always, acted with a long-range calculation. in this

war, the gods were again favorable to the cross in honor of this triumph, as usual on the platform hill had to be brought. in sacrifice, the high priest. prince vladimir spoke to the slavs himself, he will thank the gods on the pagan altar he built, but this time he was left with nothing and said, elders and boyars, we ask, the lot for the boy and the maiden will fall on whom, he was then slaughtered as a sacrifice to the gods one option came the varangian from the greek land secretly professed the christian faith and had a son with a beautiful face and soul, and the lot fell on him out of the envy of the devil, and those sent to fedor came and said your son was chosen by the gods, so we will sacrifice to the gods and said. so these are not gods, but there is a tree today

, but tomorrow it will rot. but god alone created, he is the sky and the earth and man and the star and the sun and the moon , and created life on earth. and these gods, what they themselves did, they did not give the son of their demon. if they are gods, then let them send one of the gods and take my son. and why do you make a demand to them and clicked and flowed under them, and so they were killed and no one knows where they were put. the varyag at baptism was called fyodor of his son john. of course , vladimir knew his father well, knew his growing son, fedor's court stood on a tower hill inside the fortress walls. fedor was a noble man. he was a member of the boyar duma, visited princely feasts , that he did not participate in pagan stones. so he was not the

only one, many did not participate. fedor boyarin was familiar and understandable. until this morning fyodor's deed the christian was struck by prince vladimir. there is no readiness to die and determination to die. vladimir, in what forms he has not seen, struck calm confidence in his rightness. and in this vladimir was not mistaken in people, he understood, okay? he struck fyodor with something else unknown, but so huge that it did not fit in his chest. his grandmother was a christian, princess olga was a peasant; his wife was a peasant; the greeks of the neuropolka were christians; there were some of his vigilantes; he knew christians. or not, he wanted to be the strongest of all and became the weakest. he wanted to be

the first and became the last. he was sure that he was in control of his life. and now he did not know what would happen to him tomorrow. he is blind. the creator of the universe, the almighty god, stood at the door of his petrified heart and waited for him to be heard. the robber, the traitor, the murderer prince vladimir kiev prince vladimir always achieved his goal at any cost, not stopping at anything for more than 18

years. he seized power. in kiev, by the age of 20, he reassembled the scattered russian lands and, adding new ones to them, created a huge state in 8 years. he made 10 victorious campaigns. than surpassed even his father the great warrior his 27 years. he had never turned out to be defeated, he succeeded in everything. and how it was possible to achieve such scope and power in russia did not yet know; he gathered the gods of the sky of the earth and the sun in his yard, he arranged a grandiose sacrifice. and now, resting his head on the sky at the very pinnacle of power and might after so many brilliant victories, he suffered a crushing defeat. the grand duke was defeated by a simple warrior. varangian fedor who preferred

to die than to give his son as a sacrifice to the pagans gods. fedor differed from all others in only one christian faith. and this meant that the crucified god of the christians gave great strength to those who believed in him. power unknown to the pagans, the time of the old gods was ending

. western russia bordered on western christianity danish king was baptized in 960 by a polish prince the first in 966, and at the same time the czech prince was slav the second pious after another 12 years, western christians became yesterday's nomads of hungary lay, the possession of byzantium, the bearer of eastern christianity to the southwest, the lands of bulgaria and serbia were located. time had long since adopted orthodoxy from byzantium . vladimir made sure that the merchants carried the news to all the surrounding lands that the prince of kiev was ready to renounce paganism. and now i was waiting for preachers from everywhere who would pull him each in his own faith. vladimir was in no hurry. he

understood that the fate of his country depended on his choice. the bulgarians of the mohammedan faith came saying, you are a prince wise and intelligent about the law you do not know, believe in our law and bow magomed

vladimir attentive favorably listened to the imams from the volga bulgaria. the squad and the boyars of vladimir asked about the establishment of sharia and knew that the faith in the wallachians is the faith of the winners. the prince liked the simplicity and rigor of the arab faith. they liked the ban on pork and wine. and mama were dumbfounded the frivolity of the prince. of course, this was only an excuse, the great kagan of all the slavs simply did not want someone else's too dissimilar in culture , customs throughout the life of his people, the frantic passionate faith of muslims, born in the hot arabian sands, seemed to him unsuitable for the forest expanses of russian land.

then they came, the germans from rome saying, we came, sent by the pope, our faith, sveta bow. we are god who created the heavens and the earth, the stars and the months and everything that breathes. mention of the pope as an intermediary between him and god

the need to recognize someone else's power over himself in earthly affairs did not suit him. but he wanted to understand the essence of christian teaching, and therefore he immediately asked the main question. what is your commandment? the latin missionaries had heard a lot about the failure of the muslims and were ready to offer vladimir what, from their point of view, was the most attractive fasting for him in terms of strength. if anyone drinks or eats, then everything is for the glory of god, as our teacher pavel said, vladimir was disappointed and refused them without explanation, go back, since the fathers ours did not accept this impolitely, alluding to how his father svyatoslav expelled the embassy of the pope from kiev. hearing about this, the khazar jews came, and we said we heard that bulgarians

and christians came, teaching you each of their faith, christians believe in the one whom we crucified, and we believe in the one god of abraham. isaac and jacob. the arrogance of the wise rabbis of vladimir shivered

, obviously he already knew something about the fate of the jewish people and immediately asked the most painful question. and where is your land jews in jerusalem vladimir mercilessly clarified. is it true that the rabbis there were forced to admit with pain that the jews had no land, for god was angry with his people. scattered it over the face of the earth. how do you teach others from above vladimir reproached them when they themselves are rejected from god and scattered, or do you want the same for us? however, it was not the features of the oldest religion in the world, nor the relationship of god with his people of the kievan prince, that interested israel died under the heel of rome, and the jewish khazaria was defeated by russia believing that the jews belonged to the past vladimir longed for religion. then the greeks sent to

vladimir the philosopher. he said, if you want to listen, i'll tell you from the very beginning why god came down to earth. the byzantine philosopher did not begin to talk about rituals and the law, he immediately unfolded before the kievan prince an incredible prophecy about the coming of the son of god fulfilled by christ , retold the gospel as if he himself walked next to jesus. listening to the philosopher, vladimir seemed to have begun to understand something about christians. but the most important thing remained inaccessible. how is it possible, god almighty infinite how can he rise so weak as to allow themselves to be executed by a painful and shameful death. can he

die? the greek answered god can do anything. silence fell in the room. vladimir was silent for a long time, pondering heavily with tension. finally, he told the philosopher that he had put all his words in his heart, but he would like to think again and ask for advice once again to test different faiths. no one knew that vladimir had already made a decision, however, everything should be arranged, as if it were not the personal choice of the prince, but the collective desire of state people, and vladimir continued his multi-move game, which was called the test of faith. vladimir summoned his boyars and

the elders of the city and told him what you would advise, what to answer and said the boyars and the elders know the prince that no one scolds his own, but praises. if you really want to find out everything, then you have men at your place, send them to find out what service someone has and who serves god how christianity and describe to the prince his impressions at the head of the embassy sent to constantinople stood olaf threesomes. and this, too, was not accidental . vladimir knew that olaf did not believe in gods or spirits. and that he is indifferent to the outward beauty of the rite, but the impression of the words was all the expectations of

vladimir and we came to the greek land and brought us to where they serve their god and we didn’t know whether we were already in heaven or still on earth, for there is no such thing on earth spectacle and beauty of this kind and we don’t know how to tell about it, we just know there god is with people, we cannot forget your beauty, for every person. if he doesn’t take a taste of sweets, then gorky and we can no longer live here.

christ is risen the boyars also said that if the greek law was bad, she would not have accepted it, your grandmother olga baptism and she was the wisest of all people. it was exactly what vladimira wanted to hear. he knew what divine service would make the strongest impression in germany, there were not even close such grandiose churches as st. sophia of constantinople. the hagia sophia in constantinople was built under emperor justinian in the sixth century and for a thousand years until the construction

of st. peter's cathedral in rome, it remained the largest temple in the christian world. its length is 75 m, width 68 m. in such a space, 150 kiev courtyards and at least 400 pagan temples would fit . the distance from the floor to the top of the central dome is more than 55 m, the diameter of the dome is 31 m, and that's it. this space was filled with light marble mosaic walls on a golden background a column of malachite porphyry, green, jasper, precious utensils, shining semi-precious gold-woven brocade robes of the clergy, whose staff numbered more than 500 people. a state that has more than 37 thousand kilometers of water borders, it cannot live

order the byzantine empire was the most powerful and richest of all european powers. and for more than 500 years, its power rested on orthodox christianity, it was precisely such a lever that vladimir needed, but he wanted to receive faith in no way from the hands of the empire, and never even. and as prey, the moment for this was the most successful. byzantium, against the backdrop of a difficult war with the arabs and bulgarians, a fierce civil war was going on and the affairs of the emperor were very bad. the civil war of byzantium is a ten-year turmoil that took place at the beginning of the reign of emperor basil ii of bolgar. sclera and varda foki, on september 14, varda foka openly proclaimed himself emperor and at the head, who took his side of the army, marched on

constantinople, he was followed by all the provincial nobility, who saw him as their emperor by the end of the year, the focus already controlled the entire eastern part of the empire all seaports asia minor and was ready to take in a complete blockade, constantinople tsar basil was preoccupied with the ward foca, because of the strength of his troops and his victory over him. and his wealth was exhausted and prompted his need to send to vladimir to the tsar of rus to ask for help in his present position. according to the agreement of 971, concluded by prince svyatoslav with emperor john of tsisk, the russian state was a military ally of the empire, together with the missionary philosopher, an entire embassy arrived in kiev to receive

military assistance from vladimir, which the emperor needed, as never before, vladimir was well aware of the civil war in byzantium and the desperate situation of the emperor. he told the ambassadors that he would help only if the emperor agrees to give him his own sister, princess anna, as his wife. the ambassadors were horrified. this condition could not be met under any circumstances. if ever the people of any of these unfaithful and impious northern tribes ask for kinship through marriage with the basileus of the rameans, that is, either get his daughter as a wife, or give your daughter to basily or the son of basileus, you must reject their unreasonable request. she was not just a princess, but a native parfure, that is, born in purple with special peace

the imperial palace, where children were born, the reigning emperor, the purple-born princes and princesses were surrounded by a special sacred halo. their fates were mystically connected with the fate of the empire, and they were not supposed to leave its borders, the only and dearly beloved sister of the emperor. anna was more inaccessible than the moon. the best suitors in europe, including the son of the emperor of the holy roman empire, were already wooing, all invariably received a refusal. and now vasily ii must give her to the northern barbarian, known for his frantic wife-love, but simply to refuse the kiev prince would mean losing the much-needed byzantine military assistance. if the porferous princess prince becomes his wife, vladimir will not only enter the community of the greatest sovereigns of europe, he will be at the very

top of this hierarchy, he is the son of a slave who, some 10 years ago, shame came from her own brother and most recently ruled by force three cities of the wild forest country in the outskirts of europe, of course. this marriage was impossible because the kievan prince remained a pagan. vladimir expressed his readiness to be baptized. and now waiting for a reply from constantinople the answer came very quickly and caused general astonishment. emperor vasily accepted the conditions of prince vladimir and agreed to marry his sister to him. agreed to become his godfather in absentia, agreed to send the bishop's priests to kiev, agreed to do anything to receive military assistance. beloved sister princess

anna turned out to be just a bargaining chip in this bargain between two rulers. once the greeks outplayed his father, prince svyatoslav, which cost him his life. vladimir was not going to repeat anyone's mistakes. he he calculated everything in advance and intended to use in his own interests the power and cunning honed over the centuries in byzantine diplomacy. in the meantime, the performance of the contract. vladimir sent significant military assistance to emperor basil in the future relative and godfather. when the matter of marriage was decided between them, the troops of the rus arrived and united with the troops of the greeks that were with tsar basil and went together to fight against the ward of the foca, the sea and the land, and they defeated the focus. the russian army helped the greeks turn the tide of the civil

war, now the emperor had to fulfill his promise. vladimir was waiting for the arrival of princess anna , daughter and sister of the byzantine emperors of the macedonian dynasty, his future sixth wife. however, spring passed after spring, summer passed , autumn came, and the bride was not there. by the end of autumn, vladimir realized that the greeks had deceived him and received the russian army, but they were clearly not in a hurry to fulfill their part of the agreement. anna rejected vladimir as it once dared to make the proud rogneda a heavy insult that can be washed away only with blood. and this meant that vladimir could finally complete his ingenious playing with a powerful and effective chord. forces of arms to get from

byzantium what he needs kiev prince the northern gates of the empire the main fortress and stronghold of crimea the city which the russians called korsun and the byzantines kherson was originally called chersonesus from the greek khersonis peninsula and was founded in the 5th century bc as an ancient greek colony in the x century ad chersonesus was a powerful fortress, which was considered impregnable north. black sea ​​from the east. the bay is the current quarantine bay of sevastopol from the west, the bay, which is now called streletskaya bay, on all sides the city was surrounded by stone walls, up to 15 m high and from 3 to 10 m thick , an additional battle wall was erected in the most dangerous areas from

the moment of foundation to end of the tenth century. chersonese survived many sieges, but was not taken by the enemy more than once. vladimir approached the korsun with a large army of about 6,000 people on 200 boats and quickly made sure not to take the city by storm. russ were strong with their onslaught in melee warfare. under his leadership, they won more than once in open battles, but stormed the multi-meter stone walls and towers. they had not yet had to build an embankment in order to enter the fortress over the walls along it, but the greeks made a hole in the lower part of the wall, and through it they dug up an embankment carrying earth inside the city. for 6 months the city stood, not shaken, in the end the prince applied a proven method. if the enemy does not surrender, then treason will decide the matter. and here is a certain karsunian husband

shot an arrow, writing on it dig and perem water it goes through the pipes from the wells that are behind you from the east. vladimir immediately ordered to dig across the pipes. after 6 months of grueling siege, one could not count on the generosity of the winners . as expected, vladimir gave the city to his army on the stream of plunder of war, robbed, raped and killed, thugs burned, swept away everything in their path. it was their eternal right. the right of war, no leader could stop them. but

it didn't last long. vladimir came not to take someone else's, but to force him to give his own. there was only one step left to the most grandiose, incredible, dazzling victory. having learned about the fall of the corsuns and realizing that the threat of vladimir was far from an empty phrase, the emperor preferred not to tempt fate anymore. princess anne's fate was sealed. her gentle angel perfume princess was to leave forever her homeland, her blue sky, fragrant gardens, marble palaces and go to a cold country of gloomy impenetrable forests. he firmly

stated that he would rather die than go to russia, but brother emperor was adamant, maybe god will turn the russian land to repentance, and save the greek land from a terrible war. she, turning her face towards hagia sophia, began to cry, saying this prayer. lord, and leave my tears from those who oppose your right hand. save me, lord, like the apple of the eye and cover me with your wing, for everything is subject to you and your glory is forever.

kiev prince vladimir svyatoslavovich could triumph without exaggeration. it was the biggest victory in his entire life. he came to the shore of the warm sea to the gates of the millennium aramaean empire, and now the gates collapsed under his peta. he wished for the most inaccessible woman in the world. and soon she will become his wife. the glory of prince vladimir and his strength surpassed all conceivable limits and there is nothing under the sky that could stop him?

how did this ruler feel? when the light suddenly began to fade before his eyes? rumors about the violence of vladimir's cruelty prepared anna for the worst, but when, after a week of sailing , anna's ship arrived in korsun, she saw a miserable blind man in front of her.

the grand duke of kyiv was a warrior and now he tells me waited for mercy not from fate, nor from people. but when in his pitch darkness, he heard anna's quiet voice that was the voice of a man who sympathized with him. and it happened to vladimir for the first time in his life. the quiet voice of an invisible woman the rustle of a heavily departed barely perceptible aroma of unfamiliar flowers light as a touch of a butterfly's wing he wanted to keep her on did not even dare to move. and he believed her instantly and unconditionally. how can you believe only

in childhood? three times the greek priest dipped the prince headlong into the font, and after the third gushed into vladimir's eyes. it was already a different light, different eyes. he did not even immediately understand that he was seeing again, because the most important thing at that moment was a sudden, like lightning, realization of what christians believed in. god crucified buried and resurrected by the impossible and undoubtedly death of conquering death, he looked at vladimir and called for him, an incomprehensible greek inscription became. now it is clear

to vladimir that he heard these words with his hardened, tormented heart. come to me, all you who are weary and burdened. let them speak today on the first first thought, when the sharp pain came. xt rather next in 15 minutes may begin to fight pain, with acute pain rather next now gold purchase is available to everyone. now gold, you can not only buy, but also win. install the

floated in the rising air. vladimir briefly glanced at the real bride next to him. i clearly saw a gentle radiance emanating from her face like great angels. and he saw the clear face of the queen and kissed her and married her and fell in love with her most of all because she was loved by god . vladimir and anna will live in love and harmony for many years, and even death will not separate them. vladimir will take care of this in advance. he'll take out of the course, not two marble sarcophagus. after 22 years, their tombs will stand side by side in the tithe church. assumption of the blessed virgin mary erected on the site of the court of the

first christian martyrs theodore john in the very heart of new christian russia arriving in kiev , vladimir ordered to overthrow one of the idols to chop, and to transfer the other fires to the perun. he already ordered to tie him to a horse's tail and drag him from the mountain, to make him spin and put 12 men to beat him with sticks and dragged him to the dnieper and said, vladimir, if he sticks, where to the shore. push him away until he passes the thresholds. then. only leave his execution, the expulsion of wooden idols was a completely pagan ritual, familiar and understandable to everyone, and therefore the

effigies of kostroma’s shrovetide of kostroma kupala yarila were subjected to actions every year in each village of such an execution, saying goodbye until next winter or spring. crying and lamentations emphasized the departure of the deity to another other world, and the main way to the next world, according to a very ancient tradition, was the river. during the wire to peru, the people of kiev had to say goodbye to him and with their other deities, as they used to do it before, but now not for a while, but forever. and he set up a church in the name of st. basil on the hill where the idol of perun and others stood and where the prince and people sacrificed to them, and in other cities he began to erect churches and identify priests in them and bring people to baptism in all cities and villages. the next step was the baptism of the sons of the prince and all members of his family, everyone could

come and admire the magnificent ceremony of the princes being baptized in the source at the confluence of teahouses dnipro later it will be called khreshchatyk, all of them received new christian names. svyatopolk was named peter yaroslav george mstislav konstantinov boris romanov gleb davydov, all these names were often found in the byzantine imperial family. the kiev prince rightly considered himself an integral part of it. then vladimir sent out a messenger in his all over the peas to say, if he doesn’t come, who will be on the river tomorrow, whether rich or poor, or a beggar or a slave, will be my enemies. the next day vladimir came out with the memory of tsaritsyno and korsun on the dnieper, and people converged there without vanity entered the water and stood there alone , immersed, the young ones near the shore, some

held babies, and the adults wandered the priests standing, performed prayers and joy was visible, great both in heaven and on earth along about so many souls being saved. the main argument in favor of the new faith was the prince himself, who had changed and, as if, reborn after baptism, he accepted the new faith sincerely and fervently. he did not separate his personal fate from the fate of his people by being baptized. he himself baptized russia soon vladimir sent an embassy to constantinople and returns the city of chersonesos to the empire as vienna, a traditional bride price for the slavs. after that, he immediately dissolves his numerous harem. moreover , he carefully arranges the further fate of each of his wives and concubines by marriage, each coupled with a good devotee. builds you a lot of temples , foreign guests will be amazed at the abundance of stone

churches in a predominantly forested country, seeks the arrival of the archbishop from constantinople to kiev. what elevates the russian diocese to the level of the metropolis. establishes schools the foundations of book culture in a generation, this sowing will bring rich shoots. metropolitan larion jacob mx later the monk nestor the chronicler. daniil the prisoner these people will lay the foundation for the great old russian literature. he sends numerous masters of icon painting and architecture from byzantium, which prepares for the true flowering of original ancient russian art, which amazes contemporaries with the scope of charity; henceforth, the legendary feasts of prince vladimir can be attended by all, without exception, for many gray and poor people. it is a literal salvation from starvation. those who, due to illness, cannot reach the princely

court. food drink is brought to the house so it happens not only in kiev but also in other cities. in the fulfillment of the commandments, do not kill, vladimir abolishes the death penalty, even for dangerous criminals, the highest hierarch of the church later, vladimir will have to be specially convinced of the need to punish the guilty and take sin on the soul in the name of peace and prosperity of the earth entrusted to the sovereign by god still successfully restrains, intensified, onslaught, the pecheneds, on the border with the steppe, begin the construction of a huge and extended notched line, lay a chain of powerful fortresses and populate them with natives. from the north, he establishes a system of patrols and forms outposts. these heroic military reforms for centuries to come will determine the strategy for russia to fight against everyone. through the conclusion of dynastic marriages of their numerous children,

they firmly enter the family of christian sovereigns of europe, and in one generation metropolitan hilarion will write with pride and right. after all he ruled not in an obscure and bad land, but in a russian one, like a dinner about all the four corners of the earth that had heard about it. the more his heart ached, the hotter his prayer was. by the end of his life, loneliness lay on the old prince like a stone slab. he had already been widowed for 4 years and managed to lose two eldest sons izyaslav and vysheslav, and with the middle ones it was completely wrong

svyatopolk, who was sitting in tours and married to a polish princess, planned a rebellion against his father, with the support of his polish father-in-law king, but yaroslav, who reigned in novgorod suddenly refused to pay the traditional tribute to kiev, that is, he openly opposed the power of kiev of the kiev prince. vladimir understood that it was necessary to go on a campaign against novgorod on his own son yaroslav in order to prevent similar attempts by other posadniks and governors, in order to prevent the troubles and the collapse of russia, and then he ordered that the roads to novgorod be cleared and prepared for the campaign. i hope that yaroslav will be afraid? yaroslav was frightened and brought the varangian squad from across the sea exactly, repeating the youthful story of vladimir himself father and son

prepared for war any outcome that would be equally tragic. vladimir was to kill his own son or to charge him with the grave sin of murder. in tmibyahu the devil serving and the name of demons with holy baptism enlighten m, like i am a beast, a

disco lives in a lot of filth. and punished his grace of souls to execute crazy betray me

god did not give the devil joy. vladimir and yulia died on the fifteenth day. having learned about this, people without number came together and the boyars wept for him, as for the protector of the country, the poor, as for their intercessor and the feeder and put him in a marble coffin buried the body of his blessed prince with the crying of the people's consciousness. vladimir of kiev began to be revered as a saint almost immediately after his death. approximately 300 years later, already in the fourteenth century , his official glorification will take place, and until today, in the league of saints equal-to-the-apostles, he is revered by both the orthodox and catholic churches. but all this will come later. he got up and went to

his father. and when he was still far away, he saw him, and his father took pity and ran on his neck and kissed him. the son told him vegetables. i have sinned against heaven and before you, and is no longer worthy to be called your son. the father told his slaves to wear clothes. i will dress him and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet, and bring a fatted calf and temper it, let's eat and be merry, for this son of mine was dead and lived. lost and found.
