The document summarizes how Russian culture adapted Byzantine culture through Orthodox Christianity. It describes how the Slavs originally interacted with the Byzantines, the conversion of Prince Vladimir to Orthodox Christianity in 988 which made it the dominant religion, and how Russian law and culture continued to be influenced by Byzantium under Vladimir's son Yaroslav the Wise. It then discusses the invasion of the Mongols and how their rule indirectly allowed Moscow to flourish and an Russian empire to eventually emerge, breaking from Mongol rule under Czar Ivan III.

Kievan Rus′ was the early, mostly East Slavic state dominated by the city of Kiev from about 880 C.E. to the middle of the twelfth century. People speaking East Slavic dialects were known from the ninth century as Rus (also referred to as ancient Russians or Ruthenians). Later, they diverged into three major nations—modern Belarusians, Russians, and Ukrainians, and also into several minor ethnic groups, including Carpatho-Ruthenians. From the historiographical point of view, Kievan Rus' is considered a predecessor state of three modern East Slavic nations: Belarus, Russia and Ukraine. The reigns of Vladimir the Great (980-1015) and his son Yaroslav I the Wise (1019-1054) constitute the Golden Age of Kiev, which saw the acceptance of Orthodox Christianity and the creation of the first East Slavic written legal code, the Russkaya Pravda.

from Byzantium told quite a different story about Eastern
Orthodox Christianity:

convert to Byzantine Christianity and to
make all his subjects convert, too.
S Kiev, already linked to Byzantium by
trade, now looked to Constantinople for
religious guidance.
S All the beliefs and traditions of
Orthodox Christianity flourished in Kiev.
S Vladimir appreciated the Byzantine
idea of the emperor as supreme ruler
of the church, so the close link
between Church and state took root in
Russia as well.
9. Yaroslov the Wise
S Vladimir’s son, Yaroslov the Wise, continued to build up
Kiev’s power.
S Yaroslov created many laws to benefit Kiev’s commercial
culture.
S Greater punishment for crossing your neighbor’s property line
than cutting of a man’s finger.
S Under Yaroslov, Christianity also prospered.

S Russian leaders were happy to comply.
S They were allowed to keep their power, as long as they were
obedient and put down any Russian revolts
13. Mongol Rule Serves Moscow’s
Interests
S Because the Mongol rulers
viewed Russia as a unified
empire, eventually so did the
Russians themselves.
S Also, the shared beliefs and
customs of all Russians created a
strong culture.
S Under Mongol rule, the city of
Moscow flourished.
