| Description | The turning moments of the 16th century, changing the fate and history of the Volga region, did not end with the capture of Kazan in the first days of October 1552. Our article is devoted to the trail of events that took place between the solemn tsarist entry into the capital of the Khanate and the beginning of the First Cheremis War. In this period, a kind of historical intermezzo, the people of Arsk struck up a conversation with Ivan the Terrible, both sides presented their terms of the peace treaty. It is in this period of time where we can look for the key prerequisites for the future conflict: the prolonged presence of the tsarist troops on the Arsk land and the role of the governor Alexander Gorbaty-Shuisky, who in September 1552 led the punitive army to the Arsk lands, devastated it and after that became the first governor in Kazan collecting yasak from the people of Arsk. This article draws attention to an important prelude to the First Cheremis War and explores the role of the Arsk side, which is inferior to the Meadow and Hill sides in terms of study. |
