Although the Ukrainians are one people and the Ukrainian lands form one continuous whole, they were before the war subject to two separate States, Russia and Austria-Hungary. Since the war they are split up among four States, namely, Russia, Poland, Roumania and Czechoslovakia. The area of the Ukrainian territories is ap- proximately as follows: Kilometres 1. Union of Socialistic Soviet Republies:— Territory at present known as Ukrainian Socialist Soviet Republic 451,584 Ukrainian territories in the adjoin- ing Russian Socialist Federal Soviet Republic, namely, the Central Black Soil Area, the North Caucasian Area, etc. - 131,000 2.

Czechoslovakia :— Podkarpatska Rus 14,673 Total 735,562 Resources The Ukrainian territories are immensely fer- tile and rich in mineral wealth. Since the time of Herodotus the territory of Ukraine has been known as the “granary of Europe,” and i in the last century it became famous for its extensive production of wheat, maize, sugar-beet, etc. There are besides, huge deposits of coal, anthracite, iron, quick-silver and manganese. There is salt and tobacco and won- derful oil wells in Ukraine both under Soviet Rus- sia and under Poland. Soviet official statistics declare that Ukraine has 20 to 25% of the gross agricultural produce, nearly one-fifth (18.5%) of all the industries of the Union, over one-half of the metals (55.8%), 76.8% of the coal, 89% of the coke, 77% of the iron ore, and 80% of the sugar of the Soviet Union.
