From the History of Moscow The city was founded by Prince Yuri
in 1147 as a fortress on the bank of the wide and deep Moskva river. At first it was a small settlement with wooden houses surrounded by wooden walls to protect people from the enemies. As the time passed Moscow turned into a wealthy city. In the 16th century, under Ivan the Terrible, Moscow became the capital of the state of Muscovy. Many times Moscow suffered from various invaders-the Tatars in the 13th century, the Napoleon's occupation in the 19th century, two World wars in the 20th century. The present-day Moscow is the seat of the government of the Russian Federation.
