Best Answer

Russia was never conquered. The Germans under Hitler invaded, as did the French under Napoleon, but both were defeated. The closest Russia has come to being conquered was in the Mongol invasion under Genghis Khan and his descendants. At that time, the main Russian nation was Kievan Rus (within modern Ukraine) and various small Russian-speaking kingdoms to the north, east, and northeast of Kiev.

Starting in the early 1600's, fur trappers gradually moved east, claiming land as far as California for Russia, and by 1750 Siberia was Russian.
