Kuchum Khan's attempt to spread Islam and his cross-border raids met with vigorous opposition from the Russian Tsar Ivan the Terrible (reigned 1547–1584), who sent[citation needed] a force of Cossacks to confront him head-on (c. 1580). Kuchum is particularly noted[by whom?] for the vigorous resistance he offered to the Russian invaders.
