"russian" empire rehearsed takeover of Denmark, Sweden, Norway . NATO must be ready !

Fine, if they pull out of the Ukraine and stop their information warfare, yes. Happily. Until then it's hard to see them as anything but an aggressor. I mean I think the OP overreacting and hurting his own case with his spam, but Putin's government has been confrontational for several years now.
i think you'll find Putin is responding to the number of exorcises by NATO near it's borders and the build up of NATO forces and the spike in targeting weak spots in the Russian aerospace which the RAF admitted this week and the fact 6 B52 bombers flew the entire length of Russia's western borders a couple of weeks ago
 
Muscovite 19c myth, grand khans created Moscow´s ulus

History. Have you tried it yet?

There never was a "Moscow Ulu". There was a Grand Duchy of Moscow that paid tribute to the Golden Horde. Just as the Kievian Rus did. Just as the Grand Duchy of Lithuania did.

Lithuania was founded by a pagan despotic Grand Duke.

Is Lithuania still pagan despotic Duchy?
 
Muscowy was created by the youngest son of Alexander Nevskij after the Principality of Vladimir- Suzdal fell apart due to the Mongols, and Nevskij's son all took parts of it. Muscowy was at this point a not considered a great prize, but it was relatively safe from the Mongols, though they did sack it too. Daniel I was the first Prince of Muscowy and already during his time he was able to manipulate the events in Eastern Europe against his brothers. Relations with the Mongols were complicated, like many other Russian statelets the Muscowites pai tribute early on, and thus were one of many vassals of the Horde. But as the decades went on and the Horde splintered in several warring Khanates, Muscowy benefited by taking sides against the Golden Horde remnant in Sarai (usually backing the southern Khans) in these wars. And as Muscowy grew it was able to swallow the other Russian states and then turn against the still squabbling Khanates. History is complicated, Muscowy is not a Mongol state, but a Russian state formed during the Mongol years, that benefited from taking the right sides in many conflicts in this era.

This has been explained to Litwin a hundred plus times. (Not an exaggeration)

Yours is a very well written version.

He will ignore it through.
