Slave Trade -
Kiev had no agricultural surplus, so could not trade much with Constantinople, but honey, hides, furs, and timber
So a number of peasants were selected from each community to be sent to Kiev as slaves, and traded with Constantinople
Sometimes this went well, other times they just raided the city of Constantinople.
Decline of Kiev -
Kiev became tied to Constantinople and as the Byzantine empire declined, so did Kiev
Then came the Mongols who stayed there for almost 250 years, hated the forests, but loved the grassy steppes.
Novgorod - One of the largest city-states in northern Kievan Rus
Population of around 400,000
Warming climate allowed for a larger surplus of crops between 800-1300 C.E. like most major cities.
Earned it's independence in the 12th century, but absorbed into the Russian Empire in the 15th century.
