Which prince of Moscow led the Russians to freedom from the Mongols?

By the latter part of the century, Moscow felt strong enough to challenge the Tatars directly, and in 1380 a Muscovite noble named Dmitri Donskoy had the audacity to attack them. His decisive victory at Kulikovo Field immediately made him a popular hero, though the Tatar retaliation two years later maintained their rule over the city. It wasn't until 1480, after another century had passed, that Moscow was strong enough to throw off Tatar rule for good. Its ruler at that time was Grand Duke Ivan III, better known as Ivan the Great

Why was kiev called the third Roman empire?
First of all, the term was not Third Roman Empire. It was the Third Rome. Secondly, this term was not applied to the Kievan Rus. It was applied to the Grand Principality of Moscow (or Muscovy) in the time of Ivan III Vasilyevich, the Grand Price of Moscow and "Grand Prince of all Rus."The term Third Rome described the idea that some city, state, or country is the successor to the legacy of ancient Rome (the first Rome) though connection to the Byzantine Empire (the second Rome).The notion of the Third Rome started in Bulgaria under Tsar Ivan Alexander. The renamed his capital Tsarevigrad Tarnov (which was very similar to Tsarigrad, the Slavic for Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire) to bolster the prestige of the Second Bulgarian Empire. Patriarch Callistus I of Constantinople called it "second both in words and deeds after Constantinople."The idea of the Third Rome was taken to Russia by monks who fled Bulgaria after it was taken by the Ottoman Turks. Some orthodox Christians then nominated Moscow as the Third Rome. The Tsar Ivan III of Russia (reigned 1462 -1505), who had married Sophia Paleologue, a niece of Constantine XI, the last Byzantine emperor, claimed that he was the heir of the fallen Byzantine Empire soon after the capture of Constantinople by Ottoman Turks. The Russians saw themselves as the upholders of the religion of this Empire, which had fallen to Muslims. In 1501 a Russian monk, Filofey, wrote an ode to Ivan's successor, Vasili III, in which he said that: "Two Romes have fallen. The third stands. And there will be no fourth. No one shall replace your Christian Tsardom!"The Bulgarians and the Russians, as well as the Serbs and the Romanians were converted to orthodox Christianity by Byzantine missionaries..

How did the princes of Moscow gain power in Russia?
They were the tax collectors for the Mongols and controlled Muscovy. In the 1300s there was a rebellion against Mongol rule, and by 1505 Prince Ivan of Moscow had much of Russia under his control.
When Russia was under mongol domination the effect on Russia was to?
Before the Mongols arrived in Russia, the country did not exist. As such, when the invaders did move in, they were met with little Resistance because the people were not united under one government or ruler. The main city of that time wasn't Moscow, called Muscovy, but it was the city of Kiev which was in modern day Ukraine. The city was burned to the ground for not surrendering. Once the Mongols settled themselves, all the Russian princes who had their own kingdoms had to pay the Mongols to keep themselves safe and would be humiliated by having to feed the invaders' horses with grain from their hats. The first grand Prince of Russia wasn't the Grand Prince for being the leader of the Russians to throw out the Mongols, but it was a title he bought from the outside rulers. The leader of Moscow, Ivan I, would collect the tribute for the Mongols and as such he was granted the most favor. Ivan would collect the 'taxes' from his own city as well as those nearby. He was given the name "Moneybags" for his work. And this continued on for quite a few years until the later princes of Moscow felt that they were more powerful than the Mongols and could over throw them. I believe the battle for independence lasted 20 years or so.
