for Hallion91:
What does Rutenia mean ?
Rut(h)enia is the Latin word used onwards from the 13th century, describing lands of Kyiv, Pereyaslavl, Chernihiv and Galych-Volhynia in ancient Rus manuscripts.
The term "Ruthenia" may mean significantly different things, depending on to whom the term applies and the when, why, and to which period. In our case it is Ukraine. |
