Rurik was born in 830 AD and was a Varangian chieftain of the Rus' people. He was invited by the people of Novgorod to rule over them and he accepted, becoming the first ruler of the Kievan Rus'. He is credited with unifying the various Slavic tribes and establishing the first Russian state.
Rurik is often depicted in coloring pages as a strong and powerful Viking warrior. He is usually shown wearing a helmet and armor and carrying a sword or spear. He is also often shown with his two brothers, Sineus and Truvor, who were also important figures in the founding of the Kievan Rus'.
Coloring pages featuring Rurik are a great way to learn about the history of Russia and the important role he played in its formation. They are also a fun way to explore the culture and traditions of the Viking era.
