Abstract
The article unveils the political role of Alexander Nevsky in the formation of a new (at the time) state structure of a church-controlled Russian government, which was formed as a result of numerous victories of “defence-conciliatory” political forces over “defence-marshalling” camp. This circumstance has led to subsequent subdual of Ancient Rus’ to an Emperor of the Horde. It was effectively deciding the character of the following discrediting of Duchy-Nobilities system of feudal governing as well as the traditions of councils of “Veche” in favour of self-owning merger in which the key role belonged to one ruler. Its church-controlled nature of such institution dictated the leadership of ecclesiastic powers, led by a Metropolitan Bishop, as well as a strict orientation to Church Law and its values and objectives in the normative, cultural, and ideological subsystems of the state government.
