A note on 'Ivan the Terrible' - in Russia, Ivan IV has the epithet 'Гро́зный' meaning 'Great' or 'Formidable'. So why is he known as Ivan 'the Terrible' in English? Because he was evil or useless or because of anti-Russian bias? No, because 'Terrible' in English also means awesome or formidable - this was well understood when 'Гро́зный' was first translated into English centuries ago, but now fewer people understand this. (see definitions 3 & 4 here: The name stuck, and Ivan IV has been known as Ivan the Terrible ever since.

Most of the population of Russia has received the names of only towards the end of the XIX century. The second name root in people gradually, and more interesting to know how this happened.
Last name - not a luxury?
The first names of the owners in Russia have become notable residents of Veliky Novgorod. More from the XII century, this area was in a special position: received the status of an independent republic, and independently conducted business with neighboring countries such as the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. From there came the fashion for names. And keep track of troops so it is much easier not to confuse one Michael, Ivan and Boris with another.
For example, the earliest known list with the names of the victims: Novgorodian the same pada: Kostyantin Lugotinits, Gyuryata Pineschinich, NamЂst, Fingering Nezdylov syn tanner ... (First Novgorod Chronicle senior bringeth, 1240).
After Novgorod in the XIV-XV centuries the names acquired princes and boyars. The first is usually called as the names on the land they owned. So the owners of estates on the river Shuya began Shuiskys on Vyazma - Vyazemskaya on Meshchora - Meshchersky, the same story from Tverskaya, Obolensky, Vorotynsk and other -skimi. By the way, -sk- - a single Slavonic suffix, it can be found in the Czech surnames (Comenius) and Polish (Zapotocky) and Ukrainian (Artemovsk). The time of occurrence of the names is considered to be the descendants of its preservation, even after the loss of the relevant land.
You're someone?
The boyars also got their names on the baptismal name of the ancestor or nickname: such names responded to the question whose? (Meaning whose son?, What kind?) And had in its composition possessive suffixes. Suffix -ov- joined mundane names ending in a hard consonant: Smirnov - Smirnov, Ignat - Ignatov. -Ev- - The names and nicknames, having at the end of s, matched, or -s h: Bear - Medvedev, Yuri - St. George, Begich - Begichev. Well -invariant suffix received names derived from the names on the vowels a and I: Apuhta -Apuhtin, Gabriel - Gavrilin, Ilya -Ilin.
The most famous names of the history of the Boyars - about the Romanovs. Their ancestor Andrew mare had three sons: Seeds stallion Alexander tree Kobylin and Fedor cats. They have generated Zherebtsova, Kobylin and Koshkin. The last wore that name for several generations, have not yet decided what to be called by a nickname is not too notable. And they first began Yakovlev (on behalf of the great-grandson of Fyodor Cats) and Zakharyin, St. George (named after his own grandson and great-grandson of another), and after all entrenched in history as the Romanovs (great-grandson named Theodore Cats).
Many were surprised by such names as Durnovo Sukhovo, Zhivago, Chernago, Sedykh, Fomin. In fact, nothing strange in them, no, it's the same answer to the question whose?, Just a little out of date, or in the plural: Bad - Durnovo Live - Zhivago, Gray - Gray.
Russian - non-Russian names
Next in line for obtaining names were nobles. Among them were a lot of people who come to the service of the Russian sovereigns from other countries. It all started with the names of the Greek and Polish-Lithuanian origin at the end of the XV century and in the XVII century, they were joined by Fonvizin (it. Von Wiesen), Lermontov (Shotley. Learmonth), and other names with Western roots.
Foreign-language fundamentals have names that were given to illegitimate children nobles: Sherov (French cher «dear.) Amant (French amant «favorite».) Oksov (it Ochs «bull.), Herzen (German Herz «heart». ). Side children do a lot of suffering from the imagination of parents. Some of them do not bother coming up with new names, and simply cut the old: because of Repnin born Pnin, of Trubetskoy - Betskoi from Elagina - Agin, and of Golitsyn and Tenisheva altogether out Koreans Go and Te. We left a significant mark in the Russian names and Tatars. It appeared as Yusupov (descendants Murzas Yusup), Akhmatova (Ahmad Khan) Karamzins (Tatars. Kara black, Murza lord, prince), Kudinov (Keystone. Kaz. Tatars. Kudai God, God) and others.
Local, but princes
After the nobility began to receive names and just service people. They, like the princes, too, was often called the place of residence, but with the suffixes simpler: families living in Tambov, Tambovtseva became, in Vologda - Vologzhaninovymi in Moscow - and Moskvichyova Moskvitinovymi. Some accept the nefamilny suffix denoting a resident of the territory in general: Belomorets, Kostroma, Chernomorets, but someone got the nickname without any changes - hence Tatiana Danube, Alexander Galich, Olga Poltava and others.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Crimean-Nogai raids were slave raids carried out by the Khanate of Crimea and by the Nogai Horde into the region of Rus' then controlled by the Grand Duchy of Moscow (until 1547), by the Tsardom of Russia (1547-1721), by the Russian Empire (1721 onwards) and by the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (part of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth from 1569). These raids began after Crimea became independent about 1441 and lasted until the peninsula came under Russian control in 1774.Their main purpose was the capture of slaves, most of whom were exported to the Ottoman slave markets in Constantinople or elsewhere in the Middle East. The raids were an important drain of the human and economic resources of eastern Europe. They largely inhabited the settlement of the Wild Fields – the steppe and forest-steppe land which extends from a hundred or so miles south of Moscow to the Black Sea and which now contains most of the Russian and Ukrainian population. The raids also played an important role in the development of the Cossacks.Estimates of the number of people involved vary: according to Alan W. Fisher the number of people deported from the Slavic lands on both sides of the border during the 14th to 17th centuries was about 3 million. Michael Khodarkhovsky estimates that 150,000 to 200,000 people were abducted from Russia in the first 50 years of the 17th century.The first major Tatar raid for slaves occurred in 1468 and was directed into Galicia. Crimean Khan Devlet I Giray even managed to burn down Moscow during the 1571 campaign. The last raid into Hungary by the Crimean Tatars took place in 1717. In 1769 a last major Tatar raid, which took place during the Russo-Turkish War, saw the capture of 20,000 slaves.
What made the wild field so forbidding were the Tatars. Year after year, their swift raiding parties swept down on the towns and villages to pillage, kill the old and frail, and drive away thousands of captives to be sold as slaves in the Crimean port of Kaffa, a city often referred to by Russians as the vampire that drinks the blood of Rus'...For example, from 1450 to 1586, eighty-six raids were recorded, and from 1600 to 1647, seventy. Although estimates of the number of captives taken in a single raid reached as high as 30,000, the average figure was closer to 3000...In Podilia alone, about one-third of all the villages were devastated or abandoned between 1578 and 1583.
