1 Kiev. History The capital of Ukraine has a very interesting and very ancient history. The timing of the first ancient settlements on the territory of modern Kyiv discovered during archaeological excavations dates back to the Late Paleolithic period (XV-XX millennium BC. E.). Major ancient sites in the area of the present Kirillov descent in Kiev - one of the most important archaeological finds of the late XIX century. According to many historical sources, the foundation of Kiev belongs to the V-VI centuries. According to legend, the city was founded by three brothers - Kyi, Schek and Khoryv - and their sister Lybid. As the ancient Ukrainian legend, the mighty blacksmiths named Quzma and Domian joined the fight with the dragon, bringing terror to the whole neighborhood and forcing people to pay an incredible tribute. Having won the battle, blacksmiths harnessed defeated them in a huge snake plow and plowed the land. From the furrows of the plow and embankments, according to legend, later emerged the Dnieper River, its rapids and trees along the river shores, which were named Zmiyev shafts. Because of the history of foundation of the story legends, but there are real historical sources, which contain information that after its founding Kiev became known as a center of ancient settlements of East Slavic tribe of the field. On the steep right bank of the Dnieper River, settlers erected a sufficiently powerful fortifications, serving residents of the city to protect from invasion nomadic tribes. In the future, for several centuries Kiev withstood countless attacks hordes Pechenegs Polovtzy, Khazars, mongolotatar. In Russian chronicles first mention of Kiev dated 860 events taking place in this city is inextricably linked with the historical development of the ancient feudal state - Kievan Rus. History of Kyiv as the capital of Kievan Rus' begins with the IX. When the city became a major political and cultural center of eastern Slavs as a result of combining several different Slavic tribes under the rule of the Kievan princes. The rapid development of the city contributed to its advantageous location. It is through Kiev were the roads, which are of enormous commercial and economic importance. Trade routes were in Constantinople, called in those days Tsarygradom in Asia, as well as in Novgorod and in the Don land. In 882 in Kiev began to reign, Prince Oleg, and from that period until 1132 the city considered the center of the united lands of Kievan Rus. Due to its convenient geographical location Kiev for a long time maintained a stable political and economic and trade ties with countries in Central and Eastern Europe. 1 / 6
2 Kievan princes who ruled in the city, using the experience of the older settlers, erected on the building elevations, built palaces and temples in the relatively high Starokievsky grief. As representatives of the urban merchants and craftsmen, they staged their settlement in the lower reaches, such as Podil. In IX-XI centuries. In Kiev there is a rapid development of crafts, culture (in particular, Slavic literature), erected many new buildings, including the Christian churches. The most famous architectural and historical monuments of Ancient Russia, built in Kiev, are Kiev-Pechersk Lavra and St. Sophia Cathedral, which played a significant role in the development of Russian Christianity. Noticeable trace in the historical and political development of the city left during the reign of Prince Vladimir in Kiev Svyatoslav ( years).. By this time the true baptism of Russia - the event helped to strengthen the international influence of the Russian state and the spread of the Christian faith. In IX-X centuries., In the period of early feudalism, Christianity has acquired the status of official religion of the ancient Slavs, thus began to develop rapidly the political and cultural ties with Russia, Byzantium and Bulgaria. In the XI century. Kiev won high prestige in the political and religious circles of the Christian states. By the beginning of the XII century. in the city was built about 400 Christian churches and temples, 8 trading markets. High level of development reached handicraft production and trade with other cities and countries. In Kiev, was adopted first in the Ancient Rus code of laws called "Russian Truth". In the XI century. In Kiev, there were over 50 thousand inhabitants and the population quickly grew. For comparison, an example that has become famous in the ancient chronicles of Novgorod held in those days only the second place among Russian cities by the number of people (there are about 30 thousand people) and the occupied territories. Nevertheless, among the craftsmen and artisan folk dissatisfaction Kievan princes and boyars. In the second half of XI century. class contradictions between the ruling elite and the working population of the city deteriorated sharply, leading to popular uprisings in 1068 and 1113 years. After the death of Prince Vladimir of Kiev Monomove united Kievan Rus was being divided up into fiefdoms. By the middle of the XII century. rise to many of these independent states, principalities, which led to the loss of former power of the Russian princes and the disintegration of Kievan Rus. In 1242 occurred a major invasion mongolotatarskih troops in Kiev. The city could not cope with the countless hordes of enemies, and as a result of the bloody struggle, ending for the complete defeat of Kiev, Kiev was destroyed almost to the base. After capturing the city mongolotatarami it lost its former political significance and fell into vassalage to the Government of the Golden Horde. Development of culture and economy in the territory of the Principality of Kiev was suspended for a long time, however, even despite the long decline, the city has retained its accumulated during its heyday the rich cultural and craft traditions. This has allowed Kyiv to be an important economic and political center of the eastern Slavs. In 1362, the territory of the Kiev principality was annexed by the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. 2 / 6
3 In 1471 Kiev became part of the Kiev Province and became its center.

Government Duchy of Lithuania began in Kiev, a new policy aimed at attracting wealthy and distinguished representatives of the urban poor on their side. As a result, in Kiev, was introduced by the Magdeburg Law, and this event is in no small measure helped to overcome its economic decline in the city and the growth of industrial production, which in turn led to an increase in population. In 1569, after the conclusion of Lublin, Kiev was annexed to Poland.

By the second half of XVII century. Ukraine launched a powerful liberating people's struggle against the domination of the Polish gentry, led by Bohdan Khmelnytsky. Residents of Kiev took an active part in this people's war whose purpose was to overthrow the yoke of the nobility and the reunification of Ukraine and Russia.
