Map Description
Old map of Moscow, Moscow Oblast, Russian Federation.
names are in Russian and French. The prince of Suzdal', YuryVladimirovich(known as Yury Dolgoruky), founded Moscow in the mid-12th century as a fortified outpost for his realm in the northern reaches of Kievan Rus'. Moscow rose in prominence as many of its neighboring cities were sacked by the Mongols in the 13th century. The princes of Moscow were masterful in the complicated politics of the Golden Horde and advanced their interests through subtle negotiations and service to the khans in Sarai. In the late 14th century, Dmitrii Donskoi raised an army and inflicted the first major Russian military defeat on the Mongols at the Battle of Kulikovo in 1380. Thereafter, the grand princes of Muscovy stopped paying tribute to the Golden Horde and began the process of the "gathering of Russian lands" with Moscow as the effective national capital, which gained pace in earnest under Ivan the Great in the late 15th century. Ivan the Terrible became the first Russian tsar in the mid-16th century, and continued the expansion of Muscovy into the Lower Volga and ultimately into Siberia. Upon the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks in 1453, Moscow also assumed the moniker of the "Third Rome" and by 1589, the seat of an Orthodox patriarch. In the early 18th century, Peter the Great turned westward and moved the national capital to his new city on the Baltic, Saint Petersburg. World Digital Library.

Map Sizing Information
- For the best legibility, order your map in the original size or larger. Most maps have intricate detail and small text that is best appreciated when the print size hasn't been reduced.
- Sizes labeled "Fits a Standard Frame" will drop right into any frame that you purchase in that size. The sizes that we offer are commonly available online and at most retail stores.
- Our standard sizes are recommendations based on the aspect ratio of the original map, but still may require some added "white space" in one dimension to fit.
- Non-standard sizes will require custom framing, and we suggest taking your print to the frame shop of your choice after you receive it for the best results.
- Custom sizes are available, simply contact us for a quote.
Below is an approximation of the scale of a few standard sizes, and how they might appear in your space.
