The freeway so to speak from Europe itself into Russia this area is highlighted as a gathering of states that formed, dissolved and reformed to bring us to the present where we continue to see the ravages of war as Russia and Ukraine fight it out in present time.

The struggles laid out here are timeless and timely in helping understand the dynamics of the land and the people that make up the players in the great adventure. Many of can trace our roots to this area and it makes for an interesting journey into the past and what our ancestors dealt with.
