I will solve the exam history of the ancient Russian state. Materials for preparing for the exam in the history of "ancient Rus'"

Good day, friends, guys and colleagues! Ivan Nekrasov is with you. In tests of the Unified State Examination in national history, various types of tasks are very often encountered, aimed at testing the ability to apperance with the material of the course "Ancient Rus'". As a rule, these are the first 4 tasks of the part with a choice of answers, by the way, this year RIANovosti confirmed the changes in the KIMs of 2016 (read here) and you know, there is an opinion on the Internet that this will not happen, this is all complete nonsense and nonsense, but not in vain after all, we are being led to this change for the second year in a row, first enter through numbering so that tasks without a choice of answers will not have a classification, these will be either just questions with a short answer, or an oral part, about which a word was said on the PDA + 1-2 tasks short/long answer type.

The price of a mistake, as you understand, is very high and you probably don’t want to lose an extra 5-6 primary points ... First, you need to familiarize yourself with the material of the articles:

Completed? Excellent) And now let's conduct a self-diagnosis of our knowledge on the topics covered. In the coming days, I conducted a special test in our VKontakte group to determine the level of applicants. It is still in the public domain, you can see the tasks and answers of the guys.

The average score of students was at the level of 75 points. The result is not bad, but you yourself understand that this is only the beginning, later from such values, namely their arithmetic mean, a general picture of the knowledge of the course will be formed ... and ancient Rus' in the IX-XI centuries. considered one of the easiest periods to study. What did the guys get wrong?

1. Often, the failing mistake was the inability to single out the most advantageous areas of activity, or the applicants absolutely do not know what it is, although in dialogue with them, the teachers explained to them the principles of working with the 40 task. If we take into account the fact that next year an essay may be introduced, instead of characterizing a single historical figure, and the score increases to 11 primary ones, the price of a mistake is too high!

2. Many of the students confuse events between historical figures, so for some the contracts of 907, 911 suddenly become the merit of Igor the Old. Bottom line: inability to systematize information and imagine time intervals on a time scale.

3. A similar story, as with personalities, is repeated in dates, many without hearing about the date of creation of the Notification System try to guess, this cannot be done! It is necessary to narrow the circle of suspected dates, so to speak, to go from century to date in a logical chain: period, century, ruler, quarter or third of a century, decade, etc.

This is due to incorrect work with historical material. All this will be covered in detail and clearly in our school of preparation for the exam from ZERO to the result ...

And now remove all manuals, notebooks, close unnecessary browser tabs and read on ... Your task now is to do three simple steps:

1. Solve a thematic test on Ancient Rus' in the form with a choice of answers and write down your% completed topic in a notebook

2. Download the archive in the materials of tasks with a short answer. I don’t attach keys to them, your task is to complete the tests on a separate piece of paper and put it aside for now

3. Like and download archive #2. There you will find tasks with a detailed answer. You can solve them and send them to me for verification in personal messages on VKontakte, or to the support service.

4. Go to the Internet and check the answers to the tasks of paragraph No. 2 on your own. Divide 100% by the number of tasks you completed and multiply by the correct number of answers. You will receive%, which you also need to write out to yourself in a notebook.

5. Wait for the verification of part C and receive in response % of the completed test. From these three values, you get a real level of knowledge of the topic, based on which you can work on self-improvement at your level of training.

№1:

Evaluation criteria:

90-100% - congratulations! You are doing everything right, there are practically no mistakes in preparation. Continuing in the same spirit, you will easily cross the threshold of the TOP-10 universities in Russia!

80-90% - the preparation is going well, the material of the period has been mastered qualitatively, there are errors:

a) carelessly

b) technical related to work on part 2

70-80% is an acceptable result for those who seek to enroll in a contract at a local, not prestigious university. If your goals are a little different, it's worth considering ...

50-70% is a terrible result, or you have just started to prepare, have not read the articles and have not learned anything, and if not, then you are thinking in the wrong direction. You definitely need the support of a mentor, because otherwise all your efforts will lead you nowhere. Either with self-discipline you will score an average score of 47 points, or you will change your mind about taking history altogether

0-50% - guys, urgently get treated and buy yourself a brain, and take on your head 🙂 It's time to gnaw at the granite of science, as an option to take on yourself hard and spare no time to start preparing before it's too late. Can write me, I will help with all I can:/

By the way, more than 20 people are already ready to start studying, about 9 more people have not yet clearly announced their intention to study at school and are waiting for the rest:

Preliminary list of students of the USE preparation school from ZERO to the result

There are fewer places left. The students can't wait to start taking classes and doing their homework. And we will continue to work on this site in the coming days, subscribe to updates, there will be a lot of interesting material soon ... and also, guys, be careful. Recently, VKontakte was selling some kind of miracle book for 1200 rubles, I asked the "author" for a screen of the page to see what kind of tablet-100 points it was, and it turned out to be Baranov's guide 🙂 Well, on such a cheerful note, I end this article, bye everyone =)

Sincerely, Ivan Nekrasov

By the way, what do you think about this video: / How can I live with this now... 😀

Materials for preparing for the exam in history

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PERIOD.

The formation and flourishing of a single Old Russian state covers the period from the 9th to the 11th century (the frame dates are 862 - the calling of the Varangians and 1132 - the death of Mstislav the Great).

In the 5th-8th centuries. there is a resettlement of East Slavic tribes along the path "From the Varangians to the Greeks" from the Baltic Sea to the mouth of the Danube. These tribes are at the stage of decomposition of the tribal system, which is usually called "military democracy". The stratification of society is insignificant, the social structure is simple. The bulk of the population isstinks -Ordinary congregants. stand outboyars - tribal nobility, heads of clans,princes - war chiefs, andvigilantes , constituting a permanent military detachment under the prince.

The largest tribal unions of the AF are:

priilmenskie slovenes live near Lake Ilmen and along the Volkhov River, the city of Novgorod

clearing Middle Dnieper, city of Kyiv

Drevlyans city ​​of Iskorosten

northerners the cities of Chernihiv and Pereyaslavl

krivichi Smolensk

Vyatichi Rostov

Polotsk Polotsk

Dregovichi

radimichi

buzhane

Volynians

convict

Tivertsy

duleba

white croats.

Northern unions pay tribute to the Varangians, southern Khazars. In the northeast, the Slavs come into contact with the Finno-Ugric tribes Merya, Muroma, Ves, Chud, Mordva, Korela, Izhora.

The main occupations of the population are slash-and-burn agriculture, cattle breeding, beekeeping, hunting and fishing. Religion-paganism. The main gods are Svarog, Perun, Veles, Dazhdbog, Makosh, Simargl, Stribog, Rod.

The trade route "From the Varangians to the Greeks" had a decisive influence on the process of state formation. The tribal elite became involved in international trade, acquiring luxury goods. The princes began to impose tribute on their relatives, taking it with the skins of fur-bearing animals, and sold these skins to passing merchants, at the same time collecting from them a duty for travel through their territory. This contributed to the concentration of wealth in the hands of the princes and the strengthening of their power.

It is customary to count the history of the Old Russian state from the “calling of the Varangians”. According to the chronicle of Nestor, in 862. The Slovenes near Ilmen, wishing to stop the internecine struggle, invited the Varangian king Rurik to reign. He came with the brothers Snevors and Truvor and a retinue and reigned in Novgorod for 17 years. In 879 Rurik died, leaving a young son, Igor. The prince was his governor or relative Oleg.

In 882 Oleg made a trip to Kyiv, captured the city and made it the capital of his principality. Oleg waged wars with the Khazars and made two trips to Constantinople.

From 912 to 945 Igor Rurikovich reigns in Kyiv, continues the policy of Oleg, fights with the Khazars and also makes two trips to Byzantium. In 945 Igor was killed by the Drevlyans while trying to take tribute again.

His widow Olga avenged his death and streamlined the collection of tribute, established a wagon system, determining the lesson-size of tribute and graveyards-places of tribute collection. Olga was regent for her young son Svyatoslav, made a trip to Constantinople and was baptized.

From 962 to 972, Svyatoslav rules independently, but he spends almost all the time in aggressive campaigns outside of Rus'. He defeated the Volga Bulgaria, destroyed the Khazar Khaganate, founded the city of Pereyaslavets on the Danube and planned to move his capital there. But in the war with Byzantium he was defeated, did not hold the conquered lands and was forced to return to Rus'. On the way to Kyiv, he died, and after his death there was the first princely civil strife. The eldest son of Svyatoslav Yaropolk killed the middle Oleg, and the younger Vladimir killed Yaropolk and in 9870. became the prince of Kyiv.

Vladimir reigned from 980 to 1015. he completed the unification of the East Slavic tribes, created a system of defensive fortifications in the South, concluded an alliance with Byzantium and made Christianity the state religion of Rus'. After the death of Vladimir, a second princely civil strife took place. Vladimir's stepson Svyatopolk killed four of Vladimir's sons, including Boris and Gleb, the first Russian saints.

As a result, in 1019. Yaroslav the Wise became Prince of Kyiv. The period of his reign is considered the time of the highest prosperity of Ancient Rus'. Yaroslav defeated the Pechenegs, built the stone St. Sophia Cathedral and the Golden Gate in Kyiv, created the first code of laws, Russian Truth, and strengthened the international authority of Rus'.

After the death of Yaroslav, centrifugal processes intensify and the disintegration of a single state begins. The regular order of reigning established by Yaroslav led to endless "moving" of princes and provoked frequent civil strife. Yaroslav's grandson Vladimir Monomakh tried to stop the civil strife and restore the unity of Rus', in 1097. at the Lyubech Congress of Princes, it was decided to stop moving and jointly defend Rus'. A crusade was made against the Polovtsians in 1111. During the Kyiv reign of Monomakh, the unity of Rus' was temporarily restored, the formation of Russian truth was completed, and the Tale of Bygone Years was written. The last prince of united Rus' was the son of Monomakh Mstislav the Great. After his death, in the words of the chronicler, "the whole Russian land was inflamed." The so-called specific period began.

During the existence of a single Old Russian state, East Slavic society changed a lot. Social stratification intensified, the social structure became more complex, feudal land tenure was formed, stable forms of power organization were formed, culture and the economy were rapidly developing.

Answer:_______________________________________________.

Karamzin and write in the text the name of the prince who fell victim to the murderer. “Near this city (Smolensk), he was overtaken by a messenger from Yaroslav, Prince of Novogorodsky, with a notification of the death of Vladimirova and the vile treachery of Svyatopolk; but at the very time when _______________ sensitive, pious ..., mourned his father and beloved brother, in fervent prayers confiding his grief to Heaven, armed assassins appeared and seized his boat. The Murom squad was shy: Goryaser, the head of the villains, ordered the Prince to be killed, and his own cook ..., named Torchin, wanting to please Svyatopolk, stabbed his unfortunate Sovereign to death.

Section C

Read excerpts from the works of Russian historians about the calling of the Varangians and complete the tasks.

From the work of N. M. Karamzin:

“The beginning of Russian history presents us with an amazing and almost unparalleled case in the annals: the Slavs voluntarily destroy their ancient popular rule and demand sovereigns from the Varangians, who were their enemies ... years before that time, they ruled them without oppression and violence, took a light tribute and observed justice. Dominating the seas, having relations with the South and West of Europe in the 9th century, the Varangians, or Normans, should have been more educated than the Slavs and Finns, imprisoned in the wild confines of the North, could tell them some of the benefits of new industry and trade, beneficial for the people ... "

From the work of S. M. Solovyov:

“The first circumstance is the union of the Slavic and Finnish tribes; what produced this union? Without any doubt, the aforementioned tribes were brought into contact by the Varangian conquest, just as later the rest of the scattered Slavic tribes were brought into contact by the princes from the house of Rurik. This close relationship between the Chud, the whole, the Ilmen Slavs and the Krivichi was expressed in the friendly expulsion of the Varangians and then in the calling of the princes. To this same conquest, this clash with an alien principle, the northern tribes were, in all likelihood, obliged to a relatively greater degree of social development, or at least striving for it: after the expulsion of the Varangians, they do not want to return to a scattered tribal life and, not seeing a way out of it with the selfishness of childbirth, they agree to call on power from outside, they call on a prince from a foreign clan ...

The calling of the first princes is of great importance in our history, it is an all-Russian event, and Russian history rightly begins with it. The main, initial phenomenon in the foundation of the state is the unification of disparate tribes through the appearance among them of a concentrating principle, power. The northern tribes, Slavic and Finnish, united and called to themselves this concentrating principle, this power. Here, in the concentration of several northern tribes, the beginning of the concentration of all the other tribes was laid, because the called beginning uses the strength of the first concentrated tribes in order to concentrate others through them; forces united for the first time begin to act.

From the work of B. A. Rybakov:

“The Varangians appeared in Eastern Europe when the Kievan state had already taken shape ... Collisions with the local population occurred with varying success: either the “Varangian finders” managed to take tribute from the Slavs and Chuds, or the local tribes “expelled our Varangians overseas and did not give them tribute ". For the only time in the entire Middle Ages, the leader of the Varangian detachment, together with the northern Slavs, succeeded in fraudulently, pretending to be the owner of a merchant caravan, to seize power in Kiev for a while, killing the legitimate prince. The Varangians were used in Rus' in the X-XI centuries as a hired military force. The Varangians were hired by Svyatoslav and his son Vladimir. The Varangians were hired for dirty murders: the Varangians killed Prince Gleb. Russkaya Pravda was directed against the excesses of the hired Varangians in Novgorod ... The absurd identification of the Varangians with Russia, which meant nothing else, except that if the Varangians ended up in the capital of Rus', in Kiev, if they entered the Russian service, then they were considered Rus ..."

1. What is the "Norman theory"?

2. What is the difference in assessing the importance of the role of the Varangians in the early history of the Old Russian state in the writings of Russian historians?

3. Which of the presented points of view seems more convincing to you? Why?

4. What, in your opinion, was the true historical basis for the emergence of the theory of the creation of the Old Russian state by the Varangians?
