 Pereiaslav-Khmelnytskyi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was mentioned for the first time in the text of the Rus' treaty with the Byzantine Empire (911) as Pereyaslav-Russki, to distinguish it from Pereyaslavets in Bulgaria.
It was a capital of the Principality of Pereyaslav from the middle of the 11th century until its demolition by Tatars in 1239, during the Mongol invasion of Kievan Rus'.
Bohdan Khmelnytsky called here the "Council of Pereyaslav", where the Ukrainian Cossacks had voted for a military alliance with Muscovy and accepted the Treaty of Pereyaslav.

 Pereiaslav Treaty of 1654
The treaty's form and character were imperfect; some articles were not formulated systematically, and their content was rather vague.
Soon after the treaty was concluded, Muscovite officials visited 117 Ukrainian towns, and over 127,300 Ukrainian men swore an oath of loyalty to the tsar.
Soviet historians generally disputed that it was a treaty at all, and described it as the culmination of the desire of two ‘fraternal peoples’ to unite in a unitary Russian state.

 Zaporozhian Host - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Host was formally recognized as an equal entity by the Commonwealth at the Treaty of Hadiach 1648.
After the Treaty of Pereyaslav in 1654, the Host became at least nominally a part of the Russian state (Muscovy and later the Russian Empire), although for a long time it enjoyed nearly complete autonomy.
Gradually, their state lost its autonomy granted to it after Pereyaslav, and was eventually abolished by Empress Catherine the Great.

This has put at risk the broad autonomy granted to the Hetmanate under the Treaty of Pereyaslav.
In the opinion of Mazepa, this blatantly violated the Treaty of Pereyaslav, since Russia refused to protect Ukraine's territory and left it to fare on its own.
Mazepa's decision to abandon his allegiance to the Russian Empire was considered treason by the Russian tsar and a violation of the Treaty of Pereyaslav.

The events surrounding the Treaty of Pereyaslav of 1654 concern a fateful alliance of the hetman state under Bohdan Khmelnytsky and Muscovy's Tsar Aleksey Mikhailovych, not Peter the Great as erroneously stated in last week's column.
According to the Encyclopedia of Ukraine, the treaty was negotiated between Hetman Khmelnytsky and his General Military Council on one side and Muscovite envoys led by Vasiliy Buturlin on the other.
The encyclopedia notes that the treaty consisted of two main documents, including the tsar's patent to the Zaporizhzhian Host and 11 articles concerning military, political and technical details.

Ukraine was still perilously weak, and in 1654 Khmelnytsky persuaded the Cossacks to ally with the Russian tsar in the highly controversial Treaty of Pereyaslav which led to incorporation of Ukraine into Muscovy.
Although the Commonwealth tried to regain influence over Cossacks until late 17th century (of note it the Treaty of Hadiach of 1658), Muscovy strengthened its grip on their new Cossack subjects.
As Muscovy begun to eclipse the Commonwealth as regional power, it also discarded any pretences of goodwill towards the Cossacks; their autonomy and privileges were drastically stripped and by the time of partitions of Poland ended the existence of the Commonwealth in 1795, Cossacks as a nation were all but gone.

A new treaty was signed between the Poles and the Cossacks in September of 1651 in Biala Cerkwia.
This treaty limited the concessions gained by the Cossacks after the siege at Zbaraz — and was accepted by Chmielnicki only because his soldiers needed to recuperate.
The treaty of Pereyaslav, as this came to be called, guaranteed Ukraine a high degree of autonomy, an army of 60,000, their own Hetman, and protection from all their enemies.

The Treaty of Hadiach (Polish: ugoda hadziacka) was a treaty signed on September 16, 1658, in Hadiach (Hadziacz, Hadiacz, Гадяч) between representatives of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (represented by S. Bieniewski and K. Jewłaszewski) and Cossacks (represented by ataman Ivan Vyhovsky and starshyna (sztarszna, the elders) Yurii Nemyrych, architect of the treaty, and Pavlo Teteria).
In spite of considerable Roman Catholic opposition, the Treaty of Hadiach was approved by Polish king and parliament (Sejm) on 22 May 1659.
The Treaty of Hadiach was, however, viewed by many Cossacks as 'too little, too late', and they especially opposed the agreement to return land property to the szlachta.

In January 1654 in the City of Pereyaslav, Bohdan Khmelnycky convened a Cossack council, summoning the officers' corps from generals to colonels, to ratify the protectorate of the Russian czar.
Many renowned Ukrainian historians and scholars have concluded that this treaty brought Ukraine no good and much ill. Because of this treaty Ukraine lost its independence and suffered a multitude of wrongs which lasted 337 years - enslavement, deportation and exile, terror, amines, the deprivation of the Ukrainian language.
It is imperative to conclude that the Pereyaslav Treaty was not a "voluntary reunification" but the beginning of a long period of enslavement of Ukraine by Russia.

Nurturing patriotic ideals of a Ukraine independent of "Great Russia", Mazepa secretly negotiated with the Polish king Stanislaus Leszczynski, and later with Charles XII of Sweden.
His decision was based, in part, upon the Tsar's refusal to honor security gaurantees, which Mazepa saw as a revocation of the Treaty of Pereyaslav.
During the Great Northern War of 1700-1721, Ivan Mazepa openly sided with Charles XII in October of 1708.

It was also during this war that Ukrainian Hetman Bogdan Khmelnitsky appealed to Tsar Alexei for protection from the Poles, and got it in the form of the Treaty of Pereyaslav which brought about Russian dominance of the Cossack Hetmanate in Left-Bank Ukraine.
By the Treaty of Andrusovo (February 11, 1667) Vitebsk, Polotsk and Polish Livonia were restored to Poland, but the infinitely more important Smolensk and Kiev remained in the hands of Russia together with the whole eastern bank of the Dnieper River.
This truce was the achievement of Afanasy Ordin-Nashchokin, the first Russian chancellor and diplomat in the modern sense, who after the disgrace of Nikon became the Tsar's first minister till 1670, when he was superseded by the equally able Artamon Matveyev, whose beneficent influence prevailed to the end of Alexei's reign.

The Council [Treaty] of Pereyaslav determined Ukrainian nation's history for several centuries, and its impact remains.
After the Moscow envoys, led by Boyar Buturlin, left Pereyaslav for Kyiv to swear in the local Cossacks, burghers, and clergy, the Ukrainian hetman sent his General Chancellor Ivan Vyhovsky to Kyiv ahead of the Moscow delegation, knowing that Kyiv Metropolitan Sylvester Kosiv and the clergy wanted no part of the Moscow crown.
The formal act of joining it to the Moscow Church was the approval of the next Kyiv Metropolitan, Bishop Gideon of Lutsk, Prince of Sviatopolk- Severensky, by the Moscow Patriarch, not by the Patriarch of Constantinople, as had been practiced since the baptism of Rus'.
