Russia existed before mongol invasion (Ghenghis Khan was from Mongolia, and not Russian). For example, one of great Russian kings hanged his shield on the gates of the capital of Eastern Roman Empire, the city of Konstantinople in 10th century (it was located where modern Istambul is, but the shield sadly isn't there anymore).
