Vyatka Land
Vyatka Land () is a historical region in the basin of the Vyatka River, approximately corresponding to modern-day Kirov Oblast in Russia. While the Permians were its original inhabitants, it was gradually settled by Slavic settlers whose arrival is traditionally dated to the late 12th century. Vyatka Land, being geographically isolated from the rest of the Russian lands, sometimes accepted the suzerainty of other Russian and Tatar states, but enjoyed a large degree of ''de facto'' independence until it was annexed by the Grand Principality of Moscow in 1489. History Udmurts inhabited Vyatka Land before the arrival of Slavic settlers. According to the ''Legend of the Vyatka Land'', they came from Novgorod in 1174, conquered Kotelnich and Nikulitsyn with the supernatural help of saints Boris and Gleb and founded Khlynov (now Kirov), which became the main settlement of Vyatka Land (often called ''Vyatka'' as well). This account was disputed by some historians who consider the ' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
