Ukraine captured attention of the world during the Russia-Ukraine war, but its recent history remained terra incognita to a significant extent. Ukrainian history, politics, and conflicts in Ukraine became subjects of clashing narratives. The book entries are devoted to Ukrainian government and parliament leaders, major politicians, political parties and organizations, places, historical events, the Russia-Ukraine war, the Donbas war, the annexation of Crimea, the Maidan, and other conflicts. The dictionary also covers Ukraine's relations with Russia, the US, the EU, NATO, the CIS, Poland, and other countries and the economy, demography, and culture of independent Ukraine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHistorical Dictionary of Modern Ukraine \u003c\/i\u003econtains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography.
