Beschreibung
This comprehensive publication captures the history of Russia from the beginning of Kievan Rus in the 9th century to the present day. It focuses on the territories inhabited by Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian ethnic groups, and later on the territories of the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union, and the Russian Federation. In the period following the collapse of the USSR, selected events in the territories of the post-Soviet republics, with which Russia has closer or specific relations (Ukraine, Belarus, the Caucasus, and the Central Asian republics), are monitored. The authors emphasize political history, but the fields of culture and economy are not neglected either. The chronology of individual periods is always introduced with a brief overview, supplemented by tables and text boxes explaining important events or concepts. The visual accompaniment consists of clear maps and carefully selected illustrations. A useful publication for all those interested in the history of the region.
