legend=_("According to legend, Slavic and Finnic tribes of Novgorod\
 invited in the year 862 the Varangian (Viking) king Rurik to bring order\
 to their land. Rurik established Kievan Rus' in this realm, the first\
 Russian state. By the 11th century, Kievan Rus' had disintegrated into\
 lesser princedoms, which were once again united into one state by Ivan\
 III in the 15th century. After decisive victory over Sweden and large\
 territorial gains, Peter I pronounced the Russian Empire in 1721. The\
 Russian Empire lasted until 1917 when a socialist revolution dethroned\
 the last Russian emperor. After USSR dissolution in 1991 Russia appeared\
 on world map again, now as a federative republic.")
