Ukraine - History of the Flag In the Austrian parts of Ukraine, in Galicia, Bukovina and Transcarpathia, a Western Ukrainian National Republic (WUNR) was declared in October 1918. Independence was soon lost to the Bolsheviks and Ukraine eventually became a union republic of the USSR. It was in Lviv and Western Ukraine that the use of the flag was revived in the Spring of 1989, mostly by nationalist and human rights organizations, such as 'Rukh', 'Ukrainian Helsinki Union' and others [ Krawchenko, 1990 ]. www.crwflags.com /fotw/flags/ua-flhis.html

Trotsky, Ukrainian nationalism and Kosovo Since the Ukraine was the "breadbasket" of the USSR, Stalin's war against the peasantry was felt most grievously in this republic. The Ukraine, the North Caucasus, the two Volga regions, and other grain-producing areas, according to archives quoted by a modem author, 'dropped out of the organized influence of the Party and government,' and the government responded by transforming these areas into a vast arena of an unprecedented repressive operation. A review of Trotsky's treatment of "the Ukraine question", which has been taken by many Trotskyists as ideological justification for their defense of Kosovar nationalism, might suggest a completely different political imperative. www.columbia.edu /~lnp3/mydocs/fascism_and_war/trotsky.htm

History - The Rusyns - Rusyn.org With the help of local Communists, the Soviets laid the groundwork for the annexation of Subcarpathian Rus’, now called * Transcarpathian Ukraine, to the “Soviet Ukrainian motherland.” No general plebiscite was ever held, and in June 1945 a provisional Czechoslovak parliament (in the absence of Carpatho-Rusyn representation) ceded Subcarpathian Rus’ to the Soviet Union. In an attempt to put pressure on Ukraine to fulfill the results of the December 1991 referendum a “Provisional Government of the Republic of Subcarpathian Rus’” was formed in Uzhhorod in May 1993, headed by Ivan M. *Turianytsia. Within less than a year Transcarpathian Ukraine, designated simply Transcarpathia, was reduced to the status of an oblast like all others within the Soviet Ukraine. www.rusyn.org /?root=rusyns&rusyns=hist

My Shtetl Today, it is the Transcarpathian (Rus: Zakarpatskaya) Oblast of the Ukraine Republic. It is bordered by Ukraine on most of the northern side of the triangle (appx 280 km), Romania and Hungary on the Southern side (appx 200 km), and Czechoslovakia and Poland on the West (appx 120 km). The region is a landlocked, mountainous triangle of land covering about 12,500 sq km (I imagine it to have been a sort of 'Ozarks of Eastern Europe'). www.geocities.com /Heartland/Trail/8095/carp.html

WHKMLA : History of the Ukraine, 1917-1921 By December 1919 the RED ARMY took control of Ukraine (except the Crimea and the Western Ukraine) and formed an UKRAINIAN SOVIET REPUBLIC. While peace negotiations were going on, Austro-Hungarian and German troops occupied much of the Ukraine in order to exert pressure on the Russian delegation. By late July 1919, Poles had seized control of Eastern Galicia (= Western Ukraine); the Poles held on to it during the POLISH-RUSSIAN WAR of 1919-1920 and it remained part of Poland until 1939. www.zum.de /whkmla/region/russia/ukraine191721.html

Ruthenian Church Thus today there are three distinct Ruthenian Catholic jurisdictions: (1) the Ruthenian Byzantine Catholic Metropolitanate in the United States, a metropolitan church sui iuris, (2) the eparchy of Mukaèevo in Ukraine, which is immediately subject to the Holy See, and (3) the Apostolic Exarchate in the Czech Republic. The motherland of the Ruthenian Catholic Church is now in extreme western Ukraine southwest of the Carpathian mountains. In 1664 a union took place at Mukaèevo which involved the Orthodox in today's Transcarpathia in Ukraine and the Hungarian diocese of Hajdúdorog. www.faswebdesign.com /ECPA/Byzantine/Ruthenian.html
