The Rise of Russia
• How did geography help shape early Russia
and the growth of Kiev?
• How did the Mongol conquest affect Russia?
• Why did Moscow emerge as the chief power

Chapter 10, Section 2
The Geography of Russia
Russia’s varied climate zones helped shape early Russian life:
•
A band of fertile land in the south was home to
Russia’s first civilization.
•
The steppe provided a highway for nomads migrating
from Asia to Europe.
A network of rivers provided transportation for both people and
goods. Major rivers ran north to south, linking Russia to the
Byzantine world in the south.
The city of Kiev was located at the heart of the vital trade
network linking Vikings, Slavs, and Constantinople. Kiev would
later become the center of the first Russian state.

The Geography of Eastern Europe
Several geographic features contributed to developments in
Eastern Europe:
•
Much of Eastern Europe borders on the steppes of
southern Russia.
•
Trade and travel routes linked the Balkans with the
Byzantine Empire and, later, the Muslim Ottoman empire.
•
In contrast, the northern regions of Eastern Europe forged
closer ties with Western Europe.
Chapter 10, Section 3
A Diverse Mix of Peoples
• Eastern Europe’s geography made it a
cultural crossroads.

peoples to seek homes, as well as power, in
the region.

wealth of languages and cultures.

and small states. Sometimes empires absorbed national groups.
