'Dnieper Ukraine' (), was the territory of Ukraine in the
Russian Empire (
Little Russia), roughly corresponding to the current territory of
Ukraine, with the exceptions of the Black Sea peninsula of
Crimea (made part of Soviet Ukraine in 1954) and
Galicia in the west, which was a province of the
Austrian Empire. It is sometimes called 'Great Ukraine' (''Velyka Ukrayina'') by Galicians.
