Prince Svyatoslav. The last Sovereign of Pagan Russia. The greatest commander of the Middle Ages, comparable only to Alexander, Hannibal and Caesar. The invincible warrior, who in Russia was called the Brave, and the enemies called him the Demigod. He carried Russian banners from the Caucasus to the Balkans, he crushed the monstrous Khazar Khaganate and terrified the mighty Constantinople. His victories glorified the Russian name and Russian weapons for centuries. His reign became the pinnacle of our ancient history. And his tragic death in less than thirty years, more like a ritual sacrifice, marked the end of an entire era. And even the Pechenegi killers, raising a cup made from his skull, proclaimed: "Let our children be like him!"
