There were states in the world that arose from the will of charismatic leaders who became sovereigns. Others were formed from a mutual guarantee, which arose during a confrontation with a powerful enemy. And Ukrainian statehood arose thanks to one ferryman. According to legend, the brothers from the tribe of the Polans - Kyi, Shchek, Khoryv and their sister Lybid - lived on the banks of the Dnipro. And the oldest of them - Kyi - was a carrier across the stormy river. And his craft made Kyi so powerful and influential that he and his brothers managed to form a separate settlement, which later grew and became Kyiv - the capital of one of the most powerful early medieval states - Kyivan Rus.
