The history of Kyiv
Kyiv is one of the oldest cities in Eastern Europe, its official history dating to the 5th century, although
settlement on this location was present since much earlier. According to an ancient legend, Kyiv, the capital of
Ukraine, was founded by three brothers, Kyi, Schek and Khoryv, and their sister Lybid. Kyiv means the City
of Kyi.
By late 9th century Kyiv became the chef-lieu of the emerging state of the Eastern Slavic tribes, and between
the 10th and early 13th century, it reached its golden age as the capital of the first Ukrainian state known
today as Kyiv Rus, which predated modern Ukraine, Belarus and Russia.
In 1654 Kyiv was liberated from the commonwealth by Cossack Hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky. During
these two centuries, Kyiv experienced growing Russification and Russian immigration. After the collapse of
the Soviet Union in 1991, Kyiv became the capital of independent Ukraine and it is now quickly learning the
role of a large European capital.
