The first written laws of Ancient Rus are called the Russian Truth. Did our ancestors really need to call on the Varangian Europeans to create a state and its laws? Historian Sergei Tsvetkov spoke about the emergence of the Russian Truth, about what it regulated in the life of the classes of Ancient Rus, and about why these largely pagan norms remained the main law of Christian Rus until 1497. In addition to the topic, we discussed what is not taught in school: why the Varangian Scandinavians could not have been the first Russian princes and why Kyiv became the first "capital city". 1:30 Books by S.E.
