a ruler of this city married} \only<5->{Sophia Palaiologina,
the niece of the last Byzantine Emperor, this city styled
itself the} \only<6->{``Third Rome'' after the fall of
Constantinople. Another prince of this city stopped paying
tribute to the} \only<7->{Mongols in 1476, ending the
``Tatar yoke.''} \only<8->{The Grand Duchy headquartered in
this city came to an end in 1547 with the ascension of}
