Information about Ukraine
Ukraine is a country in Eastern Europe. It borders Russia to the east, Belarus to the north, Poland, Slovakia
and Hungary to the west, Romania and Moldova to the southwest, and the Black Sea and Sea of Azov
to the south. The city of Kiev (Kyiv) is Ukraine's capital.
The nation's history began with that of the East Slavs. From at least the 9th century, the territory of Ukraine
was a center of the medieval Varangian dominated East Slavic civilization forming the state of Kievan Rus',
which disintegrated in the 12th century. From the 14th century on, the territory of Ukraine was divided
among a number of regional powers and by the 19th century the largest part of Ukraine was integrated
into the Russian Empire with the rest under Austro-Hungarian control. After a chaotic period of incessant
warfare and several attempts at independence (1917–1921) following the Russian Revolution and
the Great War, Ukraine emerged in 1922 as one of the founding republics of the Soviet Union.
The Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic's territory was enlarged westward shortly before and after
the Second World War, and again in 1954 with the Crimea transfer. In 1945, the Ukrainian SSR became
one of the co-founding members of the United Nations. Ukraine became independent again after
the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. This began a transition period to a market economy, in which
Ukraine was stricken with eight straight years of economic decline. But since about the turn of
the century, the economy has been experiencing a stable increase, with real GDP growth averaging about
seven percent annually.
Ukraine is a unitary state composed of 24 oblasts (provinces), one autonomous republic (Crimea), and
two cities with special status: Kiev, its capital, and Sevastopol, which houses the Russian Black Sea Fleet
under a leasing agreement. Ukraine is a republic under a semi-presidential system with separate
legislative, executive, and judicial branches. At the end of 2004, the country underwent an extensive
constitutional reform that has changed the balance of power among the parliament, the prime minister,
and the cabinet, as well as their relationship with the president.
