> The name "Ukraine" (Ukrainian: Україна Ukrayina
> [ukrɑˈjinɑ]) derives from the Slavic words "u", meaning
> "within", and "kraj", meaning "land" or "border".
> Together, "u+kraij" means "within the borders" or more aptly in
> English, "the heartland". To quote wikipedia. I.e. from what I read on Wikipedia, it is the other way round: Ukraine is the heartland, Moscow would be at the outskirt. |
