Correct Answer: Vladimir the Great

Vladimir the Great was the Grand Prince of Kiev from 980 until the day he died in 1015. Although he was not the first to introduce Christianity into the Kievan Rus region (today Ukraine and Russia), he was the one who cemented it as the majoritarian religion in the area after his baptism in 988, ordering the end of paganism in the area (not without certain opposition). He unified most of this region unider his mandate.

As for the reason he chose Orthodox Christianity, it is somewhat shrouded in legend. The popular tale says that he sent emissaries to learn about the religions of neighboring. When they came back, he didn't like what he heard about the restrictions Islam and Judaism imposed, and he didn't find anything interesting in what was said of Westen Christianity. Instead, he was marveled by his emissaries tales of the Orthodox temples, as they said "they didn't know whether they were in heaven or Earth". As for the more historically accurate version, it is said that he converted in part as part of a military pact.

Proof that Oscar Schindler was a hero
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Schindler owned a factory called Deutsche Emaillewaren-Fabrik and had secured numerous German army contracts for kitchenware.  He staffed a Jewish accountant who in turn connected him with the Krakow's Jewish community to staff the factory.  His company grew and he only hired Jewish workers. The Nazis started relocating his workers to the labor camps.  He devised a plan; creating a list of workers who was essential to the war effort, to give to the Nazis.  This list freed his workers and they continued to work in the factory.  This list saved the Krakow Jewish population because his plan was not to help the Nazis.  Schindler ordered his workers to purposefully make defective products that would fail inspections.  Those workers who were on the list spent the remaining months in the factory during the war and their lives were spared.  He basically saved 1,100 Jewish people.
