Wow, that's actually pretty mindblowing. I've always assumed that the word "rus" had something to do with red heads (and that it was of Slavic origin). That is the Slavic folk-etymology of the word, but rejected by most historians since the boat-rowing Varangians who founded the state were known as "the Rus" everywhere from the Baltic to Italy to Arabia, while no Slavs called themselves that until after the Norse-speaking Rus became their rulers. So like the French calling themselves after the Franks, despite never having adopted the Frankish language aside from some loanwords. The people in modern France (then Gaul) had Frankish kings. That had a huge influence on their kings. People in power get to define the identity of others. Similarly, 'England' comes from the Angles of Anglo-Saxon fame, whose name comes from their region of origin, 'Angul', whose name probably comes from the proto-Germanic word for a hook - relating either to the hook shape of the region or the fact that they used hooks for fishing. Which is also where the term for fishing, 'Angling', comes from.
