Wow. I'm only up to about the 11th century and there have already been so many different invading/influencing groups sweeping across Ukraine. What took the Slavs so long to appear? And I had no idea that the Vikings ruled over Kieyvan Rus (which I'm sure I am misspelling).

Good god. After Ukraine is taken over by the Soviet Russians and starved, then come purges, next comes WWII and the Germans. The Germans kill so so many Ukrainians….and next the Russians retake Ukraine and view everyone who survived skeptically. This is overwhelming. And yet people survived all of this. Incredible.

A few pages ago I had to chuckle when a wild Unitarian appeared. I mean, how is it that a Unitarian, of all people, would affect Ukrainian history?
I'm starting to see the various intertwinings & origins of the "Little Russian" diminutive description of Ukrainians and Ukrainian culture. That certainly ties into Russian assumptions & behavior regarding their invasion of Ukraine.
