Yes. The most important reason for the spread of Christianity throughout Europe, and indeed the world, was the adoption of the religion by national rulers. When Vladimir converted to Christianity, he demanded of his subjects that they too became Christians.

Around 987, the pagan Prince Vladimir of Kiev sent envoys to neighbouring lands to find out about other religions. He wanted to ally his land with its most powerful neighbours through religion, a decision which led to his adoption of Christianity. Vladimir was baptised into Orthodox Christianity and required the same of all his subjects. Thus, all of Russia became Christian on the decision of one man.
