Therefore, Russia needed a defender who would always protect the state. Children make up the 7th grade of Ilya Muromets, the most famous hero in Russia.
The first mention of these defenders appeared in thethe reign of Prince Vladimir. Even after the great event for Rus - the adoption of baptism, neighboring tribes continued to raid the territory of the state. And it was this that contributed to the appearance of the heroes and the glory that surrounded their exploits.
