1080 AD
In the middle of the World, lies a state which is said to have been founded in Novgorod by the Varangian called Rurik but he would later expand south where he founded the city of Kiev which would be the new capital of the newly found state and where later exotic goods from all parts of Europe and the Middle East would traded daily in the center of the city.
Under the great Vladimir I the Kievan people were christanized and under Yaroslav I it became a great military power and dominated much of Eastern Europe.
But now the people are divided, with former Kievan cities creating their own independent states, such as the rising power of Novgorod. Now this once huge state may be facing its decline...
