The Muscovite/Russian and Ottoman Empires were neighbouring multiconfessional and autocratic states with mutually hostile political and religious ideologies. They competed for lands and peoples living between, yet permitted or encouraged trade with each other, trade in goods which included slaves. The two states took part in eight full-scale wars over 225 years and as many as two million Russian and Ukrainian slaves were sold in Ottoman markets over the period. Yet they maintained "normal" diplomatic relations which lasted until the middle of the nineteenth century.
