was literally taken from polish fraze "u kraja rzeczpospolitej"
(near the edge of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth). that means that ukrainians couldn't even come up with a proper name of their own country and had to stole it from polish language?
>"u kraja rzeczpospolitej"
Polish lies. The name Ukraine is derived from Russian words "u kraja rossiji", or "Okrajina" (Which translates from Russian as borderland)
Ukrainians couldn't come up with a name for their own country, so they used the Russian language to do it.
i'm sorry to say that, first time when
the name "Ukraine" was officially used was during the times of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1590 in the title of the Sejm constitution drafted by Jan Zamoyski: Porządek ze strony Niżowców i Ukrainy (Order from the Side of the Lowlands and Ukraine), so as you can see, the name was clearly invented by poles. (ukrainians first started to indetyficate as a a separate nation in half of XIX century by the way)
