Eastern Slavs

Eastern Slavs are a group of ethnic peoples primarily found in Eastern Europe, notably in Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. They share linguistic, cultural, and historical ties, speaking closely related Slavic languages. The Eastern Slavs emerged from ancient tribes and have a rich history influenced by various empires and religions, particularly Orthodox Christianity. Their cultural heritage includes unique traditions, folk art, and literature. Today, they represent diverse national identities, each with its own distinct customs and languages but rooted in a shared Slavic heritage that dates back over a thousand years.
