RURIK
· Born: c. 830
· Birthplace: Friesland (now Holland)
· Died: 879
· Best Known As: Founder of the Russian
state
Rurik was the Viking (or Varangian) leader
who ventured from Jutland to found what is
considered to be the first Russian monarchy.
According to early chronicles, Rurik and his
fellow Scandinavian warriors were invited to
rule the Slavs, who had fallen into political
chaos. Rurik’s achievements remain a
historical mystery, but it is said that he led an
army to the Baltic coast of Russia around 855;
he established a fortress east of the Baltic Sea
at Novgorod around 862 and ruled an area
that extended as far south as Kiev (in what is
now the Ukraine). When he left Russia in 873
(to manage land in Friesland) he turned his
land over to the Viking Oleg, who moved the
seat of power to Kiev in 882 and extended his
domain to challenge the Byzantine Empire.
Oleg was succeeded by Rurik’s son, Igor,
and the dynasty Rurik began lasted until the
death of Feodor I in 1598.
The Slavs referred to the Scandinavian
invaders as “Rusi,� a name which
became the origin of the word Russia.
Did you know Rurik was Dutch?

Also
> Oleg
> not Helgi
Why the slavanization of the name?
>Finnish speaking Swede that spoke Swedish
World isn't a simple place son
If I remember correctly from the history book Rurik was a finnish speaking Swede with ethnic origins among Finns that spoke Swedish that lived on Gotland but were originally from Lapland but had settled on Gotland and later in Karelia
Do you think old northern history books and sagas are accurate? In Russia there is number of people, for example, who hold validity of old writings under suspicion
lmao.
Rurik was Jew, because Jews always were real rulers of Russia
/thread
The old sagas that describe Swedish kings slaying dragons are 100% historically accurate
Lodbrok was swedish
Rurik was swedish
Swedes founded denmark and norway
These are all facts
That would explain why dragons and dinosaurs are not around anymore
Let's stop and think for a small second here...
Does it really sound realistic that a Swedish homojävel could be the founder of the largest land empire in human history?
Does it really make sense that a dirty f*Nnoid who just got his ass spanked in the sauna could found a yuge empire? No it does not
Based and redpilled.
>Rubrecht
>Dutch

>Don't you ever take my ancestor Rurik's name in vain ever again
It's not confirmed Rurik was N1c you swedished Finn.
>The Slavs referred to the Scandinavian
invaders as “Rusi
Huh? we didn't
Rusi were Rugians, called also Ruti-Clei (Ruti-Slavi). I think family of Rurik had some ties to France as name Ruricius existed there. I think he was from Obodrite dynasty, it was actually mainstream theory in Germany, but lacks good old sources.
Btw what is going on
Is int /his/?
Retard
Rurik would have never lost the Winter war to Russia.
>Obodrite dynasty, it was actually mainstream theory in Germany
German propaganda. Germany always had crush on Russia.
>ruled an area
>that extended as far south as Kiev
Rurik didn't rule over Kiev. Kiev was captured by Askold and Dir and then Oleg killed them and moved the capital there.
Rus' came from Sweden though.
Yea but it was part of the Frankish Empire, back then.
Exactly : my boy Rurik was a proud FRANK
>Did you know Rurik was Dutch?

Based autistifinn
Northern Russians(st petersburg, novgorod, pskov etc.) ARE Finns they just lost their language. Look at the genemaps.
shut up forest russian. back then there was no such shit like Karelian. it was all fucking slavs and tundra nomads until 11 centry. then rus moved southwards and hunters moved in. the Karelian poped up there first in 14-17 centry as mongols kicked them northwards and russians accepted them as their own. at that momment Peka the Cheka learned new language under his swedish masters when russians repopulated the fucking baltics with oan people and former tundra nomads..
more likely Pekka the forest russian invented own overcomplicated moonhowling and barking, which they call language and decided that their former brother are under them and own them claims and shit.
>that pic
Does he still alive?
The Aryan Übermensch
Rurik was born in a barn in Jutland, which makes him a filthy hillbilly Dane
Are you retarded or something? There was no Moscow back then and they didn't originate in Ladoga. Read the fucking Primary Chronicle, you brainlet.
>Who are Ilmen Slavs
The general area around Novgorod was colonized by Slavs since 6th century. Sure, some Finnic tribes were assimilated, but Slavic part is dominant. And the city of St Petersburg was populated by people from all over the Russian empire, but mainly by the Muscovites. Finnic people stayed in rural areas.
>Look at the genemaps.
Yeah, and you will see that Slavic part is dominant... You are mistaking it with the very north of Russia, Pomorie. They are genetically closer to Finns than to Slavs.
>Sweden
>Doing jack or shit
