Ro Jina Nendai Ki Russia Shi Uosao Monogatari 1

[Machine Translation] The first volume of the Russian history comic "Rosina Chronicles" serialized in the quarterly magazine "MC Akushizu" by Hayami Rasenjin, one of Japan's leading Russian and Soviet Union expert manga artists, finally appears in book form. The first volume of the comic, "The Rosina Chronicles," is now available in book form. The story is told by the chemomimi duo of Lyusha and Vanya, who introduce the history of Russia and Eastern Europe in an amusing manner through comics and columns. In the first volume, the Slavs migrated to what is now Eastern Europe in the 6th century, and in the 9th century, city-states such as Kiev (Kiev) and Novgorod were established, followed by the Mongol Empire, the establishment of Russia, and the death of Czar Ivan the Terrible in the 16th century. The history of Russia is a story of many peoples and neighboring nations, spun out over a vast land. This book is the first step in thinking about Russia, a neighboring country that is both near and far, and in some ways difficult to understand. The book also includes hand-drawn columns, short comics, and a newly written book guide.
