  1. No, it does means Russia. Here's a clue for you, homie. The family that ruled Kievan Rus is the exact same family line that ruled the suceeding Tsardom of Russia and then the Russian Empire. It's the same group of people, varies to some extent by the large geographical differences, but they have the exact same root and the variation is extremely small when compared to other distinctive nations. Like Texans and New Yorkers, both are just Americans.

  2. Buddy, you seemingly don't get it. The Family that ruled Kievan Rus, is the exact same family that founded the Tsardom of Russian and then ruled Russian. Kid, Russian Empire appeared much later but they're the same group of people migrated elsewhere or expanded elswhere. Like how the first 13 colonies eventually expanded into other places but they're all just Americans? Why don't you bunch study real history? There is no such thing as Ukraine, buddy. The people who founded and rule Kievan Rus all moved to Moscow and put the headquarters there.

  3.  @just_inker2584  You do know how to look at a map, right? Buddy, the people of Kievan Rus are abou 10 to 100 times more related than British and India. Buddy, give it a rest, you're outmatched.

  4.  @vladyslavakram  There is no such thing as Ukraine, that is the point. What is called "Ukraine" is an artificial state created by Lenin and eventually Stalin. Those guys are not heroes of the people by any mean, they did some bad stuff. In 1991, that partition of the Soviet Union was done based on the horrible actions that went before and that's exactly why it has to be fixed. Your Kievan Rus argument will fall apart, because it's undisputable that Kievan Rus is the origin of the Russian Empire, the same royal family line ruled both of them and the successor to Kievan Rus chose their new central of power at Moscow, meaning you just admitted that the rightful ruler of Kievan Rus territory, which includes the Eastern Part of Ukraine, just the East, the Western part belongs to Poland or Hungary. The rightful ruler of Eastern Ukraine is based out of Moscow. Sorry, homie, you're trippin.

  5.  @MavpaBanan  So you admitted of being conquered nearly 1000 years ago instead? Horrible story, buddy. You might want to come up with a better one. Even if you make up history as you wish, at least make up a convincing and beneficial story.

  6.  @MavpaBanan  I don't think you understand how timelines work, buddy. After Kievan Rus, if your made up claims are even true, then that sad part has been nothing except being conquered by everyone. And of course, before Kievan Rus, your statehood is not recognized. Unfortunately. Try to make up a more convincing story, buddy. You either are the same people, or you got conquered far too long ago. Either way, no legitimacy.
