Despite this for more than years the descendants of would reign over the and their successor states until the establishment of the Romanoff dynasty in the th century not long after establishing Kev as a principal city the Russ solidified their position as a major power by extracting tribute from the cities of Eastern Europe while demanding payments to cease from the centuries old power in the region the Kazar

By the th century, the decline of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, the principal trading partner of the Russ combined with constant inviting among the dynasty caused decentralization fragmentation and eventual disintegration of the Russ state.
