{UAH} So, Baboons, where you think name Russia came from?

Sweden, is the answer.

The Slavs must have originally borrowed the name Russian from the Finns, who, up to the present day, call the Swedes Ruotsi. The name is in Sweden connected with a part of the coast of Upland still called Roslagen

This name- Rus was gradually getting applied to Slavic tribes whom Rus (Scandinavians) controlled in 8–9 Centuries. Ruric, a first ruler of Easter Slavic tribes was Rus, a Viking. Slavic tribes seems to be never fought Vikings. In fact, according to the ancient chronicle, Slaves invited Ruric and Russ to rule.Aug
