[blockquote]Ukraine is a Frankenstein built out of WWII, basically[/blockquote]

The current incarnation was built out of the Second World War, but it extends beyond that. There was the colonization of the east, the famine and deportations of native Ukrainians, not to mention the centuries of division between Russia and Poland of the land... What has been under-reported is that there's a lot of fed up ethnic Russians in Ukraine too, so that while there's an undercurrent of division in the country, at least in this there's more commonality within the country as to "the cause" than one might at first suspect...
