Previously, we explored how the identity of Ukraine as a nation starting forming with the Kyivan Rus and the kingdom of Ruthenia, and about the Mongol period ( • Medieval Origins of Uk... ). Second episode described the fall of the Mongol rule over the lands of Ukraine, how the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth took over and how these events led to the Rise of the Cossacks and the Bogdan Khmelnytsky's rebellion ( • Rise of the Cossacks -... ). This third episode will focus on how Ukraine lived between the three empires - Ottoman Sultanate, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the tsardom of Muscovy (Russia), and how Russia's first invaded Ukraine, using the internal problems of the Cossack Hetmanate.

Would be awesome if you will tell about peak of cossacks in country building when they created a second Europe constitution which made them first european republic of modern type with parliament (Rada) and president (Hetman) and with separate branches of government. This constitution worked for 2 years in modern Vynnizka, Cherkaska, and part of Kievska oblasts of modern Ukraine, from 1711 to 1713. And also it worked in "Oleshkivska Sich" in Crimean Khanate from 1713 to 1733 year.

The Cossak swear fealty to only to God and freedom. Everything else is just a joke before God. Everyone forgets that Cossak is more than army, a religious knightly order of Orthodoxy. Poles Catholics heretics. The Turks Muslims pagan(погань)who are unrecognizable Isus part of God who captured the most holy cities and the patriarch. Muscovites are not Orthodox - Old Believers simplified form of Orthodoxy for the wild parts of Rus', heretics. Moreover, heretics who tortured Patrarch give them Tomos (in the Eastern Orthodox Church is a decree of the head of a particular eastern orthodox church on ceretin Matters) PS Where there are two Ukrainians - there are three Getmans.

Fun fact. The biggest shame for a Cossack was to lose his saber and hat. Therefore, in Ukrainian folklore, an absolutely drunk cossack is illustrated completely naked but in a hat and with a saber. Another fun fact. To get to Zaporozhian Sich, a man had to go through a whole ritual. Eating nasty food, riding an untrodden horse, going down the rapids of the Dnieper by boat (a kind of rafting) and others. The dedication ended only with participation in a military campaign and the renaming of the rookie to a Cossack with a corresponding colorful funny nickname, for example, Break a nose, Bite an oak tree, Pull your skin, Bend trouble, Don't drink water. These surnames are still a part of Ukrainian surnames.

The main value of the Cossacks was freedom - the freedom to choose a hetman, to choose a place of life, and the ability to openly express one's opinion. This led to many internal conflicts. And it was this value that created the gulf between the free Cossacks and Russia, where unconditional obedience to the will of the tsar is the basis of the state. The same problem led to war today

открою тебе секрет, казаки не состояли из 100 процентов украинцев. (с учетом того что украинцев тогда вообще не существовало, ну да ладно, опустим это). казаки это в первую очередь сословие, а не нация. и это сословие состояло из татар, русских, поляков и других. и говорить что казаки - это предки украинцев, это полный абсурд для любого человека который хоть как то знаком с историей. такое иногда бывает, когда люди узнавшие о украине только 2 года назад рассуждают о истории восточной европы

The problem of constant disagreement among our leadership and their clinging for power despite making Ukraine overall suffer often repeated in our history (in this period, in 1917-1918 and after independence). We even have phrase for that "for two Ukrainians - there are three Hetmans". 2022 probably was the first time when we overcome this problem and set aside our disagreements in the eyes of greater threat.

Its a Polish movie on the base of 18th century novel with the same name. Its little subjective in the image, but good at scenography and whole picture of events.

I can not stress it out, but authors of this video completely downplay that mentioned instability and turncoat attitude - mentioning it as if it was a wind-breeze of events.

Brilliant video, guys, thank you very much. I was expecting you to talk about the attempt at an alliance with Sweden which Khmelnytsky is said to have tried to broker after Pereiaslav. This is supposed to show he had never been planning on surrendering sovereignty to Muscovy. I don't think I heard you mention it, does that mean it is not attested to?

@@Ladoyar77 Let's not exagerate now ! I side with Ukraine but this kind of bullshit I've heard only from the Serbs . Cossacks themselves were not a ethnicity but a mix of nomadic people of different ethnicities which appeared in the region after the defeat of the Khazars and of Cumans . Some say they come from Circassia , some say they were Turkic Cumans , some say they roots in Brodnici and Berladnici with Romanian origins . Probably a mix of all those people . Let's just say that Ukrainias are a mix of Eastern Slavs , Turkic remains and Cossacks . Every nation is a mix of some different ethnic groups , not necessarily from the same territory - people migrated a lot before .

Yeah the world's obliviousness to history lessons made it so that they have no idea what the world is and was. Even in Poland people don't understand that it was a union of effectively 3 nations. In Lithuania some believe that the grand duchy was 100% Lithuanian and Ukrainians think that all their ancestors were Ruthenian. The reality is that the Commonwealth was multinational, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was mostly Ruthenian and the Cossacks were people from all the corners of the commonwealth and even beyond and most of them never wanted to leave the commonwealth, just to throw off the yoke of their magnate overlords.

A fact: Kharkiv, Balakliya, Izyum, Chuhuiv and many others our cities was founded in the Ruin period by sitizen from central Ukraine. But people lived there before, just like frontir and no man's land (even Bakhmut) is "sloboda" (a small settlement) and our land is called Sloboda Ukraine (Slobidska Ukraine).

Interesting fact that Khmelnytskyi understood the danger of Muscovite Despotism, so he tried to make more Alliances with his neighbors. He wed his eldest son to daughter of Moldovian Voevoda, send envoys to Transsilvania and (if it's not a myth) tried negotiate with HRE members though connects he made in previous Polish campaign in Europe.
