  • Nadsyanie and Lemkoshchyna.
  • There are several interpretations of the territory of Galicia. The name "Galicia" comes from the city of Galich - the capital of the Galician principality.
  • From the second half of the 13th century, the city of Lviv became the political and cultural center of the region.
  • Galicia had both its own statehood - the Principality of Galicia, and was part of different states.
  • Due to the partial liberalization of national policy in Austria-Hungary after the “Spring of Nations” of 1848, Eastern Galicia became the center of development of Ukrainian and Polish culture, literature and science, while sub-Russian Ukraine pursued a policy of harsh Russification and discrimination against Ukrainian culture.
  • Therefore, Eastern Galicia received the name “Ukrainian Piedmont”.
