The prerequisites for the formation of the ancient Russian state emerged as a result of influence of external and internal, spiritual, political, socio-economic factors. However, first and foremost, be aware of the economic changes of the Eastern Slavs. Surplus agricultural products in some areas crafts other led to mutual exchange and contributed to the development of trade. Together with that formed the conditions for the allocation of community princely retinue of the group. Thus, the military-administrative activity separate from production.

Among the political factors that influenced the creation of the ancient Russian state, it should be noted tribal clashes on the background of complications of intertribal relations. These factors contributed to the acceleration of the establishment of princely power. Increased role of the guards and princes – they not only protected the tribe from external attack, but also acted as judges to various disputes.

However, inter-tribal fighting led to the Union of several tribes around the strongest. Such unions had been tribal principalities. The result of the Prince's power was enhanced, however, the interests of the ruler over time stronger at odds with the interests of the tribesmen.

A Great influence on the formation of the ancient Russian state had paganism, the development of the spiritual beliefs of the Slavs. With the growth of military power of the Prince, which brought the tribe a prey, protected from external attacks, internal disputes settled, grew and prestige. Along with this was the alienation of the Prince from the rest of the congregation.

The Prince, famous for his military achievements, able to solve internal issues, perform complex management functions, grew more distant from people. Community members, in turn, endowed him with supernatural power, saw in it a pledge of prosperity to the tribe in the future.

The external factors that influenced the formation of the ancient Russian state, should be attributed to strong pressure from the Normans and the Khazars. The desire of these Nations to control the trade routes between the South, East and West provoked the acceleration of the education of the princely retinue and groups who began to participate in the trading process. So, for example, were imposed on fisheries products (furs, primarily) with the tribesmen, and changed to silver and the prestigious products from foreign merchants, moreover, were sold to foreigners and captured foreigners. Therefore, tribal structures are increasingly included in the obedience of the local nobility, which was increasingly isolated and enriched.

In addition, the interaction with other more developed countries made the change in the socio-political structure of the country. The impact on the formation of the ancient Russian state had, and the existence of the Khazar khanate in the lower Volga. This education ensured the protection of the Eastern Slavs from the attacks of nomads. In the past era raids on Russian territory significantly inhibited the development of tribes, interfered with their work, the emergence of the state system.

Thus, in the first phase (early 8th to mid 9th century) the formation of the ancient Russian state is through education of the tribal centers and unions. In the 9th century there is a system polyudya – the tribute of community members in favor of the Prince. Presumably, at that time it was voluntary and was perceived by the tribe as compensation for administrative and military services.

In the second phase, the establishment of the state system had a great influence of external factors – the intervention of the Khazars and Normans.

According to the chronicle, the Finno-Ugric peoples and the Slavs in 862 turned to Rurik with a proposal to reign over them. Accepting the offer, Rurik sat in Novgorod (according to some accounts, in Staraya Ladoga). One of his brother Sineus, began to reign in Beloozero, and the second, Truvor, in Izborsk.
