Это важный промышленный, научный, образовательный и культурный центр Восточной Европы. Говорят, что название города происходит от имени Кия, одного из четырех его легендарных основателей. Киев, вероятно, существовал как торговый центр еще в пятом веке. Славянское поселение на великом торговом пути между Скандинавией и Константинополем. Полностью разрушенный во время монгольского нашествия в 1240 году, город утратил большую часть своего влияния. Это была провинциальная столица второстепенного значения на окраине территорий, контролируемых ее могущественными соседями, сначала Литвой, затем Польшей и, наконец, Россией. Город снова процветал во время промышленной революции в Российской империи в конце 19 века. В 1918 году, после того как Украинская Народная Республика провозгласила независимость от Советской России, Киев стал ее столицей. С 1921 г. Киев был городом Советской Украины, а с 1934 г. Киев был ее столицей. Город был почти полностью разрушен во время Второй мировой войны, но быстро восстановился в послевоенные годы, оставаясь третьим по величине городом Советского Союза. После распада Советского Союза и обретения Украиной независимости в 1991 году Киев оставался столицей Украины. Kyiv is the capital and most populous city of Ukraine. It is an important industrial, scientific, educational, and cultural center of Eastern Europe. The city's name is said to derive from the name of Kyi, one of its four legendary founders. Kyiv probably existed as a commercial center as early as the 5th century. A Slavic settlement on the great trade route between Scandinavia and Constantinople. Completely destroyed during the Mongol invasions in 1240, the city lost most of its influence. It was a provincial capital of marginal importance in the outskirts of the territories controlled by its powerful neighbors, first Lithuania, then Poland, and ultimately Russia. The city prospered again during the Russian Empire's Industrial Revolution in the late 19th century. In 1918, after the Ukrainian People's Republic declared independence from Soviet Russia, Kyiv became its capital. From 1921 onwards Kyiv was a city of Soviet Ukraine, and, from 1934, Kyiv was its capital. The city was almost completely ruined during World War II but quickly recovered in the postwar years, remaining the Soviet Union's third-largest city. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union and Ukrainian independence in 1991, Kyiv remained Ukraine's capital.
