We arrive to the post-classical period with vikings moving into slavic land and setting the basis for the city of Novgorod in 862, which would later be seen as the beginning of the Russian Empire.
A mixture of greek, slavic and viking cultures shaped Russia in its origins. Princess Olga from Kiev, as well as her grandson Vladimir, had great influence in <u>the conversion and unification of the population under Christianity</u>. This had tremendous impact in the early development and caused church and state to be extremely tightly linked together from the beginning.
<u>Geographical location</u> was a particularly defining element to the start of the Russian history. They were surrounded by waterways which made trading and transportation very easy early on. Being in permanent contact with byzantinum, viking, slavic and greek culture, pushed Russia to absorb all the diversity that made them culturally stronger. However, these very same circumstances made them extremely vulnerable to invasions due to easy access on water.
<u>Around 1240, the mongols invaded a prosperous Russia and managed to control them for over 2 centuries</u>. Eventually, Moscow's church gained enough power and allies to allow Prince Ivan to lead a successful army and begin an independent empire, breaking free from the mongols.

Answer:
I believe the evidence indicates the following environment:
This is a desert because there is little precipitation for plant and animal life to thrive.
Explanation:
According to the evidence, this environment is scarce in plant and animal life. Among the options given, the best ones would be tundra and desert. However, <u>the option concerning the tundra has a crucial mistake that makes it incorrect. </u>
<u>According to it, a tundra "is too hot for plant and animal to live in." However, a tundra is is an extremely cold biome consisting of snow-covered lands.</u> The tundra is, in other words, like a cold desert. <u>Both environments have little precipitation, which makes it harder for plant and animal life to thrive. </u>
<u>Since that option makes such a mistake, we can easily choose the one about the desert as the correct one: </u><u>This is a desert because there is little precipitation for plant and animal life to thrive.</u>
