Given the current ongoing war of aggression by Russia against the Ukraine, this is appears to be an important aspect or background of the history of the Ukraine.
Another one is the Holodomor (the Ukrainian Holocaust) of 1932-33 when the former Soviet Union committed genocide against the Ukrainian people by starvation! Here is my blog post about this tragic episode.
"Symon Vasylyovych Petliura[a] ... 22 May ... 1879 – May 25, 1926) was a Ukrainian politician and journalist. He became the Supreme Commander of the Ukrainian Army and the President of the Ukrainian People's Republic during Ukraine's short-lived sovereignty in 1918–1921, leading Ukraine's struggle for independence following the fall of the Russian Empire in 1917."
