    Well, if kinda makes sense, wasn’t the first state leading to Russia the Kievan Rus?

      Sorta. The dynasty that formed and ruled the tsardom of Russia were from Kievan Rus heritage by way of Rurik.

      Muscovy was the polity that really formed the framework of the tsardom out of the princedoms left in the wake of the Khanates.
