Fascinating time-lapse video of ever-changing European national boundaries over the past thousand years.

It’s very easy to find Hungary and Russia. It’s very hard to find The Ukraine (meaning borderland or frontier) before 1991, with the breakup of the USSR.

It’s easy enough to see if you had read some history.

The Ruthenians were part of the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth. That wasn’t “Poland” as some Polish nationalists try to incorrectly project backwards.

Then you see the Cossack states - and they are incorrectly grouped into Russia from 1600 when they were only nominally under the Tsar because the dopes went to the Tsar of Muscowy and didn’t read the small print of the treaty they signed.

you don’t find Muscowy becoming Russia until 1700 - the Tsardom of Muscowy was ruled by the Tsar of “all the Russias” - even the ones he didn’t yet rule
