When did Ukraine become independent from Russia? Do you have any good ideas?

1991On August 24th (the 15th day of the seventh lunar month), Ukraine declared its independence from the Soviet Union. Ukraine became independent from the Soviet Union and became a sovereign country. The reasons for the merger are as follows:

1, due to geographical reasons.

Ukraine is located in eastern Europe, bordering Russia in the east, Belarus in the north, the Black Sea in the south and Poland in the west, just between old Europe and Russia. Due to geographical proximity, the northwest of Ukraine is naturally closer to the EU countries, and the southeast of Ukraine is closer to Russia, so it is closer to Russia.

2. Due to historical reasons.

(1) Russia and Ukraine are closely related in history. Russia, Ukraine and Belarus all originated from Kiev Ross in history, so Kiev Ross is also called Ross's mother. Later, the Ross people continued to migrate and embarked on different development directions. Ukraine later came under the jurisdiction of Poland and Lithuania, while Russia embarked on the road of independent development.

With the strengthening of Russia's strength, Ukraine intends to use Russia's strength against the rule of Poland and Lithuania. Ukrainian Orthodox culture began to be influenced by Ukrainian Catholic beliefs, but many western aristocrats were unwilling to accept the influence of Ukrainian Orthodox culture.

3. Due to cultural reasons.

After the merger of Russia and Ukraine, Russia began to immigrate to eastern Ukraine on a large scale, and many Russians learned about land life in Ukraine. The continuous integration of the two sides has led Russians to dominate in eastern Ukraine. After being merged into Russia, western Ukraine gradually formed its own language and culture under the rule of Poland.

After Russia annexed western Ukraine, it began to implement Russian policy and strictly control the local language, but the effect was not obvious. There, Ukrainian is the main language in western Ukraine. In addition, the western part of Ukraine mainly believes in Catholicism and the eastern part mainly believes in Orthodox Church. The cultural differences between the two sides are still great.
