Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in the late 9th century, the narrative follows Viking warriors from Sweden who are invited to establish order in the region, leading to the foundation of the Kievan Rus Empire. Despite initial peace, internal conflicts arise, resulting in the division of the empire into Ukraine and Russia. Ukraine seeks a more peaceful existence, while Russia embraces militarism, expanding its empire across vast territories. The story explores the enduring legacy of Russian imperialism, which persisted even after the fall of the tsars in the 20th century.
