A guild of wax merchants that functioned as this historical state’s commercial court was called the “Saint John’s Hundred.” This state was likely partly governed by a group of magistrates and nobles that assembled in the “Chamber of Facets.” In this state, a drawing of a four-legged animal with the caption “I am a wild beast” was produced by a six-year-old boy, whose doodles are among this state’s thousand-plus excavated birch-bark documents. This state, which was home to the young artist Onfim, contained a kontor of the Hanseatic League called the Peterhof. Inhabitants of this state chose mayors called posadniki in a popular assembly that any citizen could theoretically convene by ringing a bell. This state’s veche was dissolved in 1478, when Ivan III brought its lands under Muscovy’s rule. For 10 points, name this medieval merchant republic in northern Rus’ (“ROOSE”) that was centered on a city called “Veliky.” ■END■
