Hidden Ukraines Inside Russia? 

If you find all 4 easter egg Ukraines in real life you will get one free borsht. This is stated in UN law.

Also, the story of the Volga Germans would be really interesting to explore. Don't believe there were much of them left after WWII.

I’m mixed half and half Kazakh and Ukrainian and my ancestors came to Kazakhstan to Seryi Klin (grey Ukraine) 150 years ago. Thank you for highlighting the history of my family.

Ukraine across the Cossak-Verse

One of my grand-grand mothers have been deported by soviets for being too wealthy. So she was deported close to China. City called Shimanovsk. Most of those people you are talking about were forced to move far east, leaving such a fertile land and moving to wild and harsh environment.

My great grandmother is a yellow ukrainian!! Thank you for sharing about this obscure group of ukrainians;)

Keep in mind that 1897 census didn't consider your ethnicity, only the language you speak (they called it dialect), and if you were literate (could read and write in russian, because writing and teaching in Ukrainian was forbidden) - you automatically were considered as russain speaker. Hence, the actual number of ethic Ukrainians was much higher everywhere.

There is also a large Ukrainian population in Western Canada.

The real Ukraines were the friends we made along the way.

As a Ukrainian, I really heard about "Yellow" and "Grey" of Ukraine for the first time. Sometimes it is interesting to think about the topic "what if...", knowing such pages of the history of one's own country.

I had heard of the Green Ukraine in the Revolution before, but the others are new info to me. Thank you for the education!

I live in Kuban region for my whole life. In our schools, we study the whole history of Kuban region and Kuban cossacks. It’s got its own subject. It names “Кубановедение” (Кубань - Kuban, ведение - studying) So, every schoolboy (schoolgirl) from Kuban knows about “green Ukraine” (never heard this word combination before). I know about repressions of Ukrainian and other nations people, but never knows about other Ukrainian republics, except Ukrainian and Kuban peoples republics. Thx for info, bro I’ll sub your channel P.s. There may be grammatical mistakes. Not so good in English language

I just now realized how it happened that my great-grandfather is Ukrainian, with love from Tatarstan. Мин хәзер генә, ничек килеп чыкканын аңладым, минем бабам Украин, Татарстаннан мәхәббәт белән.❤

Actually, believe it or not, there's some sort of thing where there's a little Ukrainian State in Canada called White Ukraine. The flag is pretty much the same as Green and Grey Ukraine, but instead of it being Green or Gray on the flag, it's White. It's within the Provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, as more Ukrainians live in the Prairies of Canada than in other Urban Areas to the East of them.

Greetings from Ukraine, thank you for covering this! I always dreamt of this topic being talked about more

0:45 that wasn't "migration" That was deportation!

Greetings from Kazakhstan! I am from the north (Qostanai), where Ukrainians are common. Most of russians of northern Kazakhstan are assimilated Ukrainians in fact. People here talk with specific Ukrainian h sound instead of g, also we have some Ukrainian words here, even penetrating to Kazakh language

I recently watched a video about Ukrainians in Russia. For example, many older people in the Kuban (especially in the villages) speak Ukrainian. For anyone who has heard Ukrainian, this is obvious. But they are embarrassed to admit that it is Ukrainian and call it the local dialect of Russian. It's a pity.

Been trying to explain this to people since 2014. Thank you!

That's true my grandma who lived in USSR said : Soviet Union is a graveyard of nations"....

I never knew there were so many Ukraines!! Quite a varied and complicated history

Thanks for your work and for revealing a rather little-known topic in the world

Thanks for the video.

This is such an underrated channel!!!

Thank You Hearts of Iron for teaching me this and making sure I remember that Tannu Tuva is a real country

Glad you made this video. Very informative 💪🏻

Great episode

Я живу там, где есть так называемый " зеленый клин", однако на Дальнем Востоке украинцы в основной ассимилированы и живут в Приморском крае.

As a Ukrainian I’m grateful for telling more about our history to the whole world🇺🇦🔱 Hope you will visit our country after victory and enjoy our hospitality☝️

1:25 In Ukrainian, it is not written correctly, but correctly, in the first: "Малиновий Клин", in the second: "Жовтий Клин", in the third: "Сірий Клин", in the fourth: "Зелений Клин"

0:13 Never saw this map before What year is it?

Nice work bro👍

How did you mention Circassia about not the Circassian genocide that Russia did

Brother, thanks a lot for the video! Just a few corrections considering Ukrainian names of the regions: - Малиновий Клин - Жовтий Клин - Сірий Клин - Зелений Клин

Thank you for doing this realy thank you

Thank you a lot! I am very grateful to you for doing this. Incredible job thank you. Word can not describe how thankfull I am. Thank you

Interesting! I knew there was a lot of movement of various peoples within Russia (however I did no know many details like this) and this is just one of many exempels of it.

You are giving me ideas for my 2.0 alternative history map. Thanks for the new info I will be using

wow this was really informative!

Greetings from Ukraine and thank for such an entertaining content. It is really disappointing that you have only 20k subscribers. Such a good talent

I wonder in some crazy alternate history. What would happen to the various “Ukraines” if they still existed in the later half of the 20th century. Would they all become independent states or merge into a “Mega Ukraine” stretching from the Carpathian Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. All while spilt from Ukraine proper.

I’m kinda disappointed you didn’t mention the Circassian genocide while talking about Kuban Cossacks.

There are Ukrainians from Kuban in my church

Yellow Ukraine, Grey Ukraine, Green Ukraine......it's like Ukraine Power Ranger.

As a Ukrainian, I've only heard of the Kuban Ukraine and Green Ukraine, never have heard of the others. Thank you for sharing this content. Showing those photos with flags clearly stating word "Ukraine" is a good antidote to defy the russian propoganda narrative

Thank you for this video! Hi from Sumy, Ukraine!

In malaysia They have a state Ukraine flag call perlis but the flag flip

Like!

Thanks for the bell icon tip and another great episode full of incredible research

8:26 what a weird map of Ukrainian people's republic. That part on the south for sure was included in it

Literally zero mention of the Circassian genocide when talking about Kuban republic but when it comes to Armenian or Anatolian Greeks, channels like these won't shut up about mentioning them.

Can you do a video about quebec independence plzzz

I knew about three of them but I never knew about raspberry Ukraine thank you for informing me

It's important to note that many of these Ukrainians were deported to the locations shown in this video. While it is true that many migrated, it was also an integral step at Russification within Ukraine to deport Ukrainians, and settle Russians in the area. This can still be seen today, in the Russo-Ukrainian war, even as far back as 2014 with the occupation of Crimea.

If you go down that road moscovites are a mix of greeks and germans as well as slavs.

So the colors actually correspond to directions. Green is east, white is north, south is black, yellow is west.

I am SURPRISED that this video has so few views. So interesting!

Concise and informative. Nice graphics.

Exactly

Might I suggst a video on Idel-Ural?

Thank you from a Kuban Ukrainian! I hope one day we’ll gain our independence from Moscow and unite with Ukraine 🇺🇦

😳😳😳fascinating!!

wow

You forgot the artic circle of Siberia during the 1950 till 1991 in some cities like Vorkuta over 40 percent were Ukrainian some were forced to live there as punishment under article 58 . Kuban was Ukrainian since 1792 exiled Zaporozhian Cossacks moved there and following 1820s Ukrainian women followed their husband. Once Putin goes Russia proper will end up as mini states and ignoring Moscow its already brewing up .

Friendly reminder that Ukrainians have nothing to do with Caucasus, they might have been relocated to Kuban during the tsar rule, but these lands have zero connection to them whatsoever. My Circassian nationalist ass couldn't even stand seeing that map.

Why you talk so much about the bolcheviques "ending" this Ukraines when they regonized the ukraine language? And the withes tsarists try to ban all expression of ukraones culture?

Does this “Raspberry Ukraine” exist? I don’t see anything for it online, and this video only explains the “Kuban People’s Republic”

can you separate somewhere else? Like in texas or northern ireland?

I'm kind of interested, who exactly were (are) the Cossacks? They're not an ethic group, but still have a pretty role in Russian and European history.

Good Video🥇

When are we getting a video on green/red/white/grey/purple israel?

Yellow country in the thumbnail be looking like a seahorse

2:22 It might have been worth mentioning the genocide of the Circassians alongside the settlements

Great video, very interesting!

I don't, I just hit that like button whenever I watch a channel that I know to be good, and remove it whenever they remind me to leave a like

I saw the thumbnail and instantly clifked because you actually colored green ukraine green lol

This video makes no sense. Just because Ukrainians moved to Russia doesn't mean it's theirs 🤦 It's like saying we should give London to India and Pakistan. Paris to Africans 🤦

every time he says people were evacuated/migrated/moved replace this with "taken forcefully in the middle of the night, put like cattle into train wagons without any food, with all wealth stolen away from them". A huge percentage of people even didn't make it to final destinations, many died after being dropped in the middle of nowhere without food, tools and knowledge to survive ...

2:02 TOOK A LEAP THROUGH A BOX SUPER WEIRD-

Great trial! gret trallll!,,,,!1,,!! 5:11

Ukrainian majority was shared not only in neighboring Kuban but also Rostov on don, Belgorod, Kursk and Voronezh, these regions connect modern Ukraine with Kuban so it was less disconnected than it appears in this video. But great video love that some people from outside Ukraine and Kuban know this history. Although it is not worth war, it would be a dream if these neighboring regions (not sure about the siberian regions) joined back, I have a friend from Krasnodar in Kuban who supports it!

Why do you ignore the circasian genocide? I see youre also ignoring the holodomor.

I like #1 green Ukraine

remember for any lawful state of things to exist it is vital that a certain land and territory is the priviliged ownership of one people and one culture, everyone else is either merchants, diplomats, foreign/neighbouring temporary laborers, or temporary refugees or a small number of immigrants who are actively in the process of adopting the culture of the tribe/culture they are lucky enough to get a chance at becomming part of. if this basic nobrainer order of things is not followed then states are not real simply places of ongoing war. then it only becomes a frantic game of who can kill or prevent reproduction of certain cultures or who can produce the most children, whom they actively raises to be their own foreign culture, until they deem they have produced enough manpower to overthrow the host tribe, or at the very least gradually overtake their influence over their rightful land. so immigration should be done in very small numbers, a percentage of the host population and the rough maximum potential population of a certain area. and it should be very clear that they come to a new tribe and if they want to stay for longer than a visa they have to shed their old culture for the most part and freely replace it with the host culture. if not, then any other word than invader is not fit to describe them. remember colonization, invasion, annexation etc. does not require a specific method (violent in a classical shortterm "hot war") but merely requires above mentioned priniciples of refusal to fully integrate to be the case. for the world to expirience the most order and peace, it has to follow the same rules that make up a safe and properous neighbourhood of houses, lawns, families and fences/hedges. no peace between neighbours can exist if both parties does not respect and love the fences and hedges between their properties. simple as that. all war is the refusal to respect your neighbouring familys/tribes priviliged right to that specific plot. so of course the native population needs to be priviliged for any amount of law, order and morality to exist. just like any investment in a succesful business. the few people who start up a later very succesful budiness that grows beyond the initial few founders, should of course put the founders in a priviliged position, as long as everything is by the book and their employees and customers are not forced to support/invest in the business. yes you can discuss the details of the founders privilige but not that lawful fact that they need to be priviliged. otherwise there is not law, no business, only a horde of barbarians who sees wealth and use various means to unlawfully steal it. dont like a lawful and peaceful succeesful culture/business/tribe? boycut them, dont work for or support them. but attacking them, stealing from them, simply makes you the bad guy. so you want freedom to gain by conquest? or you want law and peace? the choice is obviously not an easy one, as humanity is very split between people who answer first or second. just be honest about which type you are.

My Ukrainian great grandma ended up in Buryatia, a region in Russia east of lake Baikal.

Если Кубанская Украина это доказано, Зеленая Украина имеет место быть, то Серая и Желтая Украина это уже бред. 2-7 процентов населения не делает область украинским. В северном Казахстане немцев и то было больше чем украинцев

1: 25 You have written it with mistakes. Right way is below: Малиновий клин Жовтий клин Сірий клин Зелений клин

Raspberry Ukraine is like Crimeas brother same style flag

Hidden Russia inside Ukraine when

Really interesting stuff!

my Ukrainian ancestors came to far east russia, near Chinese border :)

u forget rasberry, grey & yellow Ukraine

Thank you for showing how interesting can be Ukrainian history

Thank you for your work. My sister's mother from Kuban spent all her summer holidays there. They speak Ukrainian there, it is not the same as in Ukraine, but you can say a dialect in Ukrainian, but I am not a linguist. The people of Kuban themselves called themselves Cossacks, not Ukrainians. The Cossacks were free people in the Russian Empire. They had different privileges at different times. The Soviet government made everyone Soviet and planted on the Cossacks of the Kuban that they were Russians. Therefore, you can meet a Kuban who will speak Ukrainian and will say that he is Russian. Here is a film about the Sovietization of the region with living witnesses. It was shot immediately after the collapse of the USSR. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KT5tKV8KqKs.html

This video wants you be sympathetic towards ukranians and cossacks on the kuban while totally disregarding the indigenous circassian people, only getting a small cameo and basically sending the message that "oh the circassians once lived there and now cossacks and ukranians live there" what about the genocide and conquest that had to take place to achieve this state? The cossack and ukranian "land" that was supposedly "russified" was never ukranian/cossack land to begin with. They are just like the russians. Colonial settlers. Extremely shameful of the creator to completely ignore this.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aoC2Rcel6G0.html these are the borders of the Ukrainian People's Republic in 1917, in 1918 with the arrival of Pavel Skoropadsky, a small coup took place and Ukraine became the Ukrainian State (the border of the Brest-Litovsk peace treaty would be better shown on video)

Thank you for bringing Ukrainian history to the masses

What is very sad about this Russian-Ukrainian war is the fact that Putin is pulling lots of troops from the far east of the country to go into Ukraine. Most of those people have significant Ukrainian heritage. The propaganda is so strong that I have a feeling many of the troops don't realize this or care. That's why learning about the history is essential to give people perspective to break through the propaganda.

1:22 The "Ukrainian" names are super wrong. Should be Малиновий Клин, Жовтий Клин, Сірий Клин, Зелений Клин. And no, they don't mean Raspberry Ukraine, Yellow Ukraine, etc. They mean Raspberry Wedge, Yellow Wedge, etc.

Barkeep, I'd like to have a Raspberry Ukraine.
