Ukraine is a country located in Eastern Europe. It is bordered by Belarus to the north, Russia to the northeast and east, and by several countries to the west, including Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, and Romania.

Ukraine is the largest country entirely within Europe and has a diverse geography that includes fertile plains, plateaus, mountains, and river systems, notably the Dnieper River.
Kyiv is the capital and largest city of Ukraine, which has a rich cultural heritage and history. The official language is Ukrainian, and the country has a mix of cultural influences due to its historical interactions with neighboring nations.
