The fate of Russia in the second half of the 15th to 17th centuries is a mix of land and sky, high and low, the map of a learned deacon accurately depicting the lines of rivers, lakes, and forests in newly explored lands, and the life of a holy hermit who was the first to settle there. Looking at the map, it is easy to see that in the mid-15th century, Muscovite Russia was a small, poor, sparsely populated country. But by the beginning of the 16th century, it had grown into a great power, and by the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, it had transformed into a giant state. It was the geographical environment of the native "European" Russia that contributed to the rapid colonization of the Russian North, the Urals, and Siberia in the 16th and 17th centuries. But it was not just geography. The structure of the Moscow Tsardom was built on the rock of faith, permeated with Orthodoxy in all directions. The fact that it was filled for a long time with the self-awareness of the New Israel, the Third Rome, the Inheritance of the Most Pure, gave it a mobilizing purpose and meaning of existence.
