"This Chuda Glushin was an appendage": The historian explained why Russia was not Russia (video)

According to him, the lands around Moscow founded in the XII century were called Zalissa and did not belong to Russia. The historian recalled that the small village of Moscow was first mentioned in the chronicle in 1147 - after the death of Prince Vladimir Monomakh Chernihiv, so these lands have nothing to do with the Golden Age of Kiev History.

"While Russia with the capital in Kiev for three hundred years lived, developed and strengthened, on the site of Moscow, the frogs were felt and wolves forged," - said in the roller. One of Monomakh's younger sons, Yuri Dolgoruky, was left without a princely throne, and was sent to the border forests in the farthest corner of Ancient Russia. The video provides a quote of Russian historian Vasily Klyuchevsky.

"Yuri Dolgoruky, one of Monomakh's younger sons, was the first among a number of princes of Rostov region, which was separated into a separate principality: by that time, this Chuda Glushina served as an appendage to the South Principality of Pereyaslavsky," Klyuchevsky wrote. The distance from Pereyaslav to Moscow reaches almost 1,000 km. This land was called Zalissa, and there lived the Finno-Hungarian peoples: Moksha, Chuda and Merry, explained the video of the video Alexander Babich.

He also noted that in the chronicles it is often possible to find records that to that remote land, someone goes "from motion" and from there returns "to Russia". This is an argument in favor of the heirs of Russia and the lands of modern Ukraine, and Russian Moscow, Suzdal and Vladimir were not Rusya, but Zalissia. We will remind, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia Sergey Lavrov announced on May 23 the "harm" of the book of former President of Ukraine Leonid Kuchma "Ukraine - not Russia".
