  Treaty of Pereyaslav - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The original copies of the treaty have perished, and the exact nature of the relationship stipulated by this treaty between Ukraine and Russia is a matter of scholarly controversy.
The second Treaty of Pereyaslav was concluded on 27 October 1659 between son of Khmelnytsky, Yuri Khmelnytsky and Russian tsar and drastically limited the Ukranianian (Cossack) autonomy.
Major consequences of the treaty included the separation of Ukraine from formerly dominant Catholic Poland, the re-strengthening of Orthodoxy in the historic center of Ukraine, and the eventual domination of Ukraine by neighboring Orthodox Russia.

 Bohdan Khmelnytsky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Khmelnytsky was probably born in Chyhyryn, in Ukraine; it is unclear whether to a family of Ruthenian nobility or to Polish nobility of Abdank Coat of Arms who had immigrated to Ukraine from Masovia.
After Khmelnytsky's forces were betrayed by their former allies, the Tatars, they suffered a massive defeat in 1651 at the Battle of Beresteczko, and were forced at Bila Tserkva to accept a loser's treaty.
Ukraine was still perilously weak, and in 1654 Khmelnytsky persuaded the Cossacks to ally with the Russian tsar in the Treaty of Pereyaslav, which eventually led to the incorporation of the Left-bank Ukraine into Russia.

In 1654, the hetman, in the face of an imminent invasion from Turkey and Poland, was forced to sign a treaty in the town of Pereyaslavl with Russia which put Ukraine under the protection of the Russian tsar.
As later events showed, it proved to be a turning — and tragic — point in the history of Ukraine — Russia was turning into an empire and an independent Ukraine was not something it would tolerate.
Only five years after the treaty in Pereyaslavl was signed (the treaty gave considerable rights and privileges to the Ukrainian land owners and nobles, Ukrainian clergy and autonomy for the Zaporizhian Sich Cossacks), a much stricter control was established by Russia over the hetman and the Cossack starshyna (self-government).

The main reason for the decision of unification was the disastrous state of the Scottish economy after the grave failure of the attempt to establish a Scottish colony in Panama in 1698-1699.
The 1603 unification of crowns and the 1707 Union Treaty in the Scottish case are to be corresponded with the Pereyaslavl Treaty of 1654 in Ukrainian case with which the Ukrainians let Russians defend them against the Poles by invading and never leaving their country.
