🚩 Khmelnytsky Uprising was a brutal war that lasted nearly a decade (1648 to 1657). Cossack warriors, under Bohdan Khmelnytsky rose against the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, eventually winning their independence. However, this victory gradually led to the incorporation of eastern Ukraine into Russia, as Cossacks swore allegiance to the Tsar in exchange for greater autonomy than they enjoyed under Polish-Lithuanian rule. Ultimately, the war led to the period known as “The Ruin”. The Battle of Zhovti Vody was the first major battle of the Khmelnytsky Uprising.
