In this video there aren't mentioned such vital points of Ukraine's history as the principality of Halych-Volyn, the emerge of Cossacks and their uprisings (which didn't have joining Russia as their main goal), the Cossack Hetmanate and Zaporozhian Sich. It wouldn't be so difficult to tell about that. However, a part of video is dedicated to the Crimean War, which relates to Russia's history, not that of Ukraine. Ukraine itself didn't fight the Crimean War, the Russian Empire did. I understand this is called 'brief history' but 'brief' doesn't mean 'inaccurate' or 'partial'.

There was no independent Ukraine back then, so how else can you relate. History of Ukraine is history of Russia, even if you don't like it. Even the name comes from the word "outskirts", which implies it was the border region.

@@doktorkoka So, I see you are claiming you can relate more than me? First of all, the history of Ukraine is the history of the free people of Ukraine, it belongs primarily to them. We inhabit this land for centuries, so we own it. Everything that has been done by our ancestors on their (and our) land is our history. It's quite simple. And we know our history. However, we don't arrogate neighboring countries' history. People must know what is theirs and what belongs to others. Ignorance causes historical delusions and wars. Concerning the word 'Ukraine'. The fact that it sounds similar to a Russian word 'outskirts' ('okraina') is not a linguistical or historiografical evidence of its meaning. The language was quite different in times when the word 'Ukraine' emerged. Initially, it was used to describe different lands of Rus bordering with other non-Rus territories. I haven't heard people using the word 'outskirts' to call any land that has an external border but I don't reject the fact that such border territories could have a specific term. Also, the word 'ukraina'/'ukrayna' was frequently synonymous to the word 'land' in different historical documents. In historical letters of the Cossack period, besides the word 'Ukraina' itself, the expression 'Ukraine of Little Rus' ('Ukrayna Malorossiyskaya') is used. Thus, it meant literally 'the land of Little Rus', not 'the outskirts of Little Rus'. The word 'Ukrayna' was used then as a name of the country and had nothing to do with 'outskirts'. If we even try to judge about the word 'Ukraine' through modern languages, I can mention some very similar words from Slavic languages. Here you go: UA: країна - country BY: краіна - country SK: krajina - country CZ: krajina - land PL: kraina - land SI: pokrajina - landscape ... and there is 'окраина', which corresponds to 'outskirts' in Russian. Only in Russian. I think it's clear now.

@@doktorkoka Firstly. It's not true that no one takes our land. I can't get to many places in Ukraine where I was before because these places are now invaded by Russia. I can't see my acquaintances there due to the same reason. Don't pretend you have no clue what's going on. Russia is the biggest country in the world. So I genuinely cannot understand: why is Russia so obsessed with gaining new territories? Secondly. It is very ignorant to say people in Ukraine are actually Russians. Actually, it offends me but I see you believe in your words sincerely. Ukrainians in the past called themselves with different names, such as 'ukrainskiy narod', 'rus'kiy narod', 'ukrainskie malorossiyane', 'savromaty', 'kozakorussy', 'kozaki', 'rusyny' and many other. The Ukrainians are East Slavs, so they are heritors of Slavic tribes of Southern and Western Rus as well as of nomadic tribes of the steppe (but not so much). We have our own unique gene pool which differs from that of Russia (containing more Finnic and Central Asian elements) and Belarus (sharing more common with Baltic peoples). We have our own language, folklore, political traditions, national heroes and the most important - national self-consciousness that has been existing for centuries. It didn't emerged once independent Ukraine appeared on the map. Ukrainians have always known they are not the same as Russians, even if it's obvious we share some similarities and the common source - Kyivan Rus. You just have to accept that history is moving. We don't want to fight with anybody but we have to because someone always doesn't like our existence as a separate independent nation. But we are so. You don't speak Ukrainian, you don't know Ukrainian folk songs, you haven't read Ukrainian literature, you know not much about Ukrainian mentality, you probably haven't been to Ukraine. But this is ours, and it's not Russian. If we are East Slavs too and our ancestors had a similar ethnonym deriving from the word Rus, it doesn't mean we don't exist but only you do. Just accept that and stop looking for a trick.

It wasn't an intentional starvation, the exact same famine occurred in all of the central agricultural regions of the Soviet Union, at that time. It came as the cumulative result of years of civil war and political infighting, economic turmoil (widespread across all of Europe at the time as well) and enforced collectivisation of grain by the Soviet authorities, in order to help maximise exports and get the money needed to build Soviet industry, according to the Five Year Plan. Perhaps you're not aware of this fact, and it is actually one of the biggest errors and misconceptions of the public in general, who assume a famine only existed in present day Ukraine.

About Ukraine: nation created in Lenin's time (not to be confused with the history of the city of Kiev and/or with Kievan Rus & its Rurik dynasty started by Prince Rurik of Novgorod; Novgorod is an ancient Russian city), but only theoretical/administrative terms, since it remained under Russian control in the Soviet era, the conformation of its territory today consists mainly of territories that have historically belonged to the Russians (from the center to the eastern and southern side) and the western side has historically belonged to Poland. Important issue about Poland: the h4tred of the Poles towards the Russians is immense and it is they who have partly influenced the western part of Ukraine, this h4tred is historical, since Poland and Russia have had multiple w4rs for several centuries, even the Poles invaded Moscow at some point and were driven out by the Russians (look for the monument to Minin and Pozharsky in Moscow's Red Square). Now if you add this historical h4tred towards Russia with Neo-Naz1 elements (in western Ukraine) that by default relate Russia to the greatest enemy of the Naz1s, that is, the Soviets, who ended up destroying their beloved H1tler, you will have a gigantic anti-Russian national1sm, which the United States has been able to use as a geopolit1cal tool against the Russ1ans. On the current crisis: The people of Donbass are ethnic Russians and they did not support the 2014 coup, as those who took control of Kiev (with US backing) are openly xenophob1c against the Russians, they even banned the Russian language in Ukraine, which is the native language of the people living in Donbass. Ethnic Russians have lived in Donbass for several centuries, so at the moment they are defending their families and the lands where they have lived for many generations. People living in Donbass voted in a referendum to gain more autonomy and stay inside Ukraine, the latter being important as it shows that the Western narrative that the Donbass conflict was started by "pro-Russian separat1sts" is not is so true and this was part of the typical western pr0paganda to confuse the world about reality and adapt everything to the western narrative of "it's Russia's fault", I repeat "the people of Donbass did not vote for independence from Ukraine and/or to join Russia, they voted to have more autonomy within Ukraine", in fact this is the basis of the famous Minsk agreements that Kiev and the West refuse to implement (accusing Russia of not complying with them, when Russia does not has obligations in the agreement), and it has to be repeated that the people of Donbass wanted this because they simply never accepted the 2014 coup, which brought to power people who h4te ethnic Russians. The Ukrainian army launched an 4ttack on these regions in 2014, moving its entire 4rsenal against the civilians of Donbass, this topic is important since the w4r takes place in the lands of Donbass, therefore civilian v1ctims are always the civilians who live in the Donbass (usually the Western media always interviews Ukrainian civilians living in regions that do not suff3r the real consequences of these w4rs), the people of Donbass won practically all the b4ttles, there were a lot of material on youtube about these b4ttles, where they showed civilians f1ghting aga1nst the Ukrainian army, but youtube has cens0red almost everything. These victories should not really surprise us too much, since the people of Donbass were defend1ng their homes against people who h4te Russians (their ethn1city), any of us would fight with full force if you see that your family is thre4tened by crazy rac1sts that h4te your friends and family, today after all the 4ttacks they have received by Kiev, if they hold a new referendum it is very sure that they will vote to join Russia, they have already seen the true face of the Westerners and of those they control Kiev today. It is true that Russ1a supports those Russ1ans who live in Donbass, in fact it has more right to do so than the illegal military presence of the Y4nkees in northern Syr1a ("support1ng" the K*rds and steal1ng Syrian oil along the way), the inhabitants from Donbass are ethn1c Russ1ans, they are in lands close to the Russ1an border (secur1ty issue), they have an obvious connection with Russ1an culture and above all they share many family members with Russ1ans, for this reason after 2014 many residents of Donbass have obtained a Russian p4ssport (Russian citizensh1p).

You offer a useful and important correction - that there was an internal struggle in Ukraine about whether or not to join the USSR - then undermine yourself by saying something that is a historical distortion - that they were "puppets of Russia." Once Ukraine joined the USSR, it was by no means a "puppet", it was quite a formidable and integral part of the USSR. Yes, autocratic rule from Moscow undermined the agency of soviet republics, particularly under Stalin. However, people easily forget that there were powerful bureocratic and governmental institutions in place within the USSR through which could be used to assert pressure on Moscow - not democratic pressure, but pressure nonetheless. In that sense, the Soviet Republic of Ukraine was a force to be reckoned with in Moscow. I recommend that you separate your political views from your grasp of history. Ideology tends to just distort history and keep you from really seeing things clearly. (Just a tip from a friendly historian.) Ukraine's relationship with Russia is extremely complex. It is a messy history, at the very least. But even if Ukrainians were wholly "Russian" (as Putin claims, citing the fascist philosopher Ilyin and others), it would not justify his recent attempt to invade and overthrow the democratically-elected Kiev government.

@@markeedeep "Anti-communist" is a loaded and imprecise word for the contingency you are referring to in the civil war that came after the Russian Revolution. The term "anti-communist" is from the Cold War and implies opposition to nation states run by totalitarian communist regimes like Maoist China or the USSR. For the Russian civil war, it is more accurate to use their own terms. "The Whites" opposed "the Reds." Or, "Anti-Bolshevik." Ideologically, the Whites were actually a loosely banded together group of Russians from all varieties of political orientations - monachists, republicans, conservatives, classic liberals, and even former Menshavik social democrats.

For starters, you're hair-splitting about the names. It is explicitly said at the beginning that MODERN place names are being used to avoid confusion, so who cares if they used "Russia" instead of "Muscovy". Second, the Cossacks lived on the frontiers and depending on which group you're talking about, some were temporarily allied to the Tsars, in an effort to screw over Poland or the Ottomans, others were integrated into the Russian military structure to exert greater control on the regions further east of the Dniper river, near modern-day Kharkiv. It is true that many Cossacks did resent the centralization of authority under the Tsars and fought against it, many more felt a greater affinity towards the Russians due to shared Orthodox traditions, and similarities in language---more so than with Poland and Lithuania.

As Muscovy was the weakest, they submitted to the Mongols while Novgorod and Kiev did not. Subsequent history resulted in the slow drift of Rus culture into multiple groups, similar to the differences in language and traditions of various regions in China, Italy, and presently the English-speaking regions of the former British Empire.

Andrew - this didn’t help you to understand the history of Ukraine. This video is shockingly inaccurate and skips centuries of history relevant to todays Russian war on Ukraine. Starting with maps, through to false information about Cossack’s uprisings.. Those were never to join Muscovy (called here Russia) although the last uprising had - only partially - such result. Uprisings were to gain recognition of Kossack aristocracy - as equal to the one of Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth - and within it, and to stop Catholicism spreading and being privileged in their lands. After multiple uprisings - Chmielnicky (Kossack leader) asked Muscovites (Russians) for help - what ended with partition of Ukrainian lands between PL-LIT Commonwealth and Russia. That partition has consequences till this day - in what language people speak, and also up until recent Russian invasion - the level of self identity as Ukrainians - being strong where Commonwealth once stood, and not so in the east of the country. The previous division is still visible for example in nova days electoral results. The video instead talks a lot about Crimean war - which may be important to UK coz of its involvement but far less for understanding Ukraine..

Throughout its history, Ukraine was at the intersection of civilizations and cultures: the Western world (Poland, Austria, Hungary), the Eastern world (Mongols, Tatars, Russia) and the Muslim world (Crimean Tatars and Turks).

It was not, the west part was taken by Poland which created Banderities (it was anti-Polish movement and not anti-Russian as there were no Russians there). This and centuries of western Ukraine being not part of Russia led into the big split of West vs East Ukraine. This split was reason for the Donbas & Luhansk rebellion against western Banderities in 2014 because they do not understand why Banderities are so xenophobic to Russians. There is no mention that the Ukraine border after WW1 were different than now - right-wing Ukraine (Banderities) consider Poland and Belarus as illegal occupiers of part of their territory and have territorial claims against them. The Donetsk was not part of the Ukraine in 1918 but incorporated into the Ukrainian SSR by USSR. There is no mention that Crimea was never of Ukraine and wanted to proclaim independence 3 times since fall of USSR - in 1992, 1994 and 2014. However, every time the Ukraine blackmailed them with military pacification so the third time, they were forced to join Russia to avoid bloodbath like in Donbass. TL;DR - Ukraine was like former Yugoslavia, being in fact a joined state of 3 different nations formed by centuries (West Ukraine, Eastern Ukraine, Crimea).

The problem is that this division is useful and invented by Anglos. And Look at Anglos: they never divided them selves. Even India still has a formal alliance with UK. Even US is working hand to hand with Britain. That’s why they are so powerful. UNION. That’s why China is so powerful. UNION. That’s why Russia WAS so powerful before Anglos put his shit. And that’s why they push division (search the Independence “heroes” en Latin America against Spanish Empire and search who support the black legend in America against Spain. Spoiler: Anglos). Slavic people has to do the same as panarabs: UNION. PanSlavism is what Russia government seek and that looks a good idea if you don’t want to be divided and be de dog of Anglos. If not, Russia soon will be divided and dominated by Anglos like is Latinamerica right now.

The Anglos are Germanic (in case you didn't know). We still cooperate with Germany and France much of the time but the Germanic tribes that founded these SEPARATE nations went their SEPARATE ways a long time ago (following the decline of Rome). I imagine a lot of Ukrainians are more than willing to cooperate with their Russian cousins. They just don't want to be their pets. They don't want to be Russian. Just like Americans don't want to be Brits. They want to do things a bit differently. And good for them.

The Swedish 10+ lands is however tiny compared to the Ucrainian lands. In the 19'th century, Sweden built railway tracks and stations allover this land and nowadays (i was against it 😇) we build windmills on everything that doesn't have outdated railway tracks. This fact might be outdated but (last i heard, about a year ago) Sweden had 4850 active windmills. We have loads of hydro from northern Sweden, nuclear from the middle of Sweden and wind/sun from everywhere. I have a "environmentally friendly" energy subscription (not what i hoped for but we all know how voting function in a household). Looking at my energy bills i (shockingly 🤡) learn that i had 0,0% of my energy usage from sunpower and between 0,8 and 2,0% from wind. This is obviously simplified numbers but the 98-99% of my needs is actually satisfied by hydro from the far north of Sweden. To transport energy cost energy (that's how a radiator functions). Somewhat overkill statistics but an undisputable fact--> during WWII, Germany used four times as mush fuel to transport fuel, as they used to wage war (that Germany used coal to create the power needed to make gasoline from coal isn't something that the Greens mention every day 😨) Spend 4 $, €, ¥, dog turds, something to get 1 in return.

Halford MacKinder, the father of British geopolitics, proposed that the British Empire use geopolitics to seize control of the "Eurasian Heartland" which MacKinder identified as the World Island. (British control of Russia) And as his theory goes, whoever controls the World Island, controls the World. If you read MacKinder's report on this subject and put it in the context of what has transpired since US/EU/NATO actions beginning in the Fall of 2013, in Ukraine, you will get what I am driving at. Zbigniew Brezinsky grasped the importance of Halford MacKinder's theory, suggesting that Ukraine be brought into the orbit of NATO. And that if Ukraine no longer represented a soft buffer between NATO and Russia, NATO would have the edge in a proxy war against Russia. Thus the eventuality of seizing control of Russia would be in sight. All NATO would have to do is avoid direct nuclear conflict with Russia for as long as it would take to bleed Russia white. The problem with playing out Britain's Great Game is the fact that Boris Yeltsin was succeeded by Vladimir Putin. And Putin is committed to the defense of Matuska Rus by all means at Russia's disposal. This means that civilization is being held hostage in a Thermonuclear chicken game that US/UK/NATO is intent on playing.

What about the interbelic borders and soon after? How did Ukraine reached the territory it has today? From which countrys did those territorys came and how?

It is worth adding that the Cossacks entered into military alliances with the Ottoman Empire and the Crimean Khanate and the Swedish kingdom in their struggle for independence, and not only with the Moscow kingdom. The name Russia from the word Rus was stolen by Peter the Great to create an empire. And Crimea is Ukraine. This video does not reflect the full history of Ukraine, it is too one-sided and untrue.

I was under the impression that some western parts of modern Ukraine were part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire until the end of WW1. They then became part of the re-established nation of Poland, and didn't become part of the USSR until WW2, which likely made integration into a Russian - ruled Soviet Union even more difficult for the Ukrainian people in that part of the country.
