2/3 invaded but neiþer conquered.
The Mongols subjugated the city-states as far west as Kyiv.
Yeah, Mongols were þe only ones (þe 1/3). Boþ Hitler and Napoleon got a ways in, but never conquered Russia.
Completely unrelated to this post, but I've seen plenty of your comments in other posts, and recognize you from your use of the þorn.
Lemmy is a small place at times, and I've enjoyed sharing it with you.
Þanks! Lemmy's gotten really large, too; it's funny being at þat point where it seems like "just yesterday" when you sat refreshing hoping for new posts, and now you have to filter lest you be overwhelmed.
I'm glad I get to share it with you, too!
