My hero is Dmitriy Donskoy. Dmitriy Ivanovich Donskoy(1350-1389) He was great prince of Moscow (from 1359). He was a son of Ivan II Red and his wife Aleksandra. Dmitriy ascended the throne, when he was nine. He is my hero because he united all Russians and won a victory over Mongols in XIII century. He made Russian Army. He won battle in 1380 on Kulikovskoe plain. He was the first who could win over Mongols. He built the Kremlin in Moscow city. Moscow is the capital of Russia. Novosibirsk has street of Donskoy. The street is beautiful. He is my hero because he lived for his Motherland.
