	East Slavic languages - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Current East Slavic languages are Belarusian, Russian, Ukrainian, and Rusyn (a small language spoken in Eastern Slovakia, South Eastern Poland, Eastern Hungary and South Western Ukraine and regarded by many as a Ukrainian dialect).
		The history of the East Slavic languages is a very 'hot' subject, because it is interpreted from various political perspectives by the East Slavs "like all mortals, wishing to have an origin as ancient as possible" ("sicut ceteri mortalium, originem suam quam vetustissimam ostendere cupientes"), as Aeneas Sylvius observed in his Historia Bohemica in 1458.
		The first divergence among the Old East Slavic texts is evident during the 12th century, during the era of Kievan Rus', i.e.

	Slavic Languages
		Slavic languages is a subfamily of the Indo-European family of languages.
		The Slavic group of languages seems to be closer to the Baltic group than to any other, that si why some scholars combine the two in a Balto-Slavic subfamily of the Indo-European languages.
		Members of the Slavic subfamily are more conservative and thus closer to Proto-Indo-European than languages in the Germanic and Romance groups, as is witnessed by their preservation of seven of the eight cases for the noun that Proto-Indo-European possessed and by their continuation of aspects for the verb.

		Old East Slavic language is a name for a literary language used between the 10th and 14th centuries in Kievan Rus and its successor states.

		More significantly, this period was of Slavic expansion as an agriculturist and beekeeper, hunter, fisher, herder, and trapper people; by the 6th century, the Slavs were the dominant ethnic group on the East European Plain.

		In the eighth and ninth centuries, some East Slavic tribes had to pay tribute to the Khazars, a Turkic-speaking people who adopted Judaism in the late eighth or ninth century and lived in the southern Volga and Caucasus regions.
