During the early years of World War I, Ukrainians didn't feel inclined to celebrate much. However, over time, holidays became a source of comfort and hope for better days.
Throughout the war from 1914 to 1918, Ukrainians served in two armies β the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the russian empire. However, on Easter, there was a sense of "brotherhood" between Ukrainians. Soldiers even visited each other to exchange holiday greetings.

We will explain everything you need to know about βDonbasβ and its complicated story π§΅
Russia often pretends that the "protection of π·πΊ people of Donbas" and "returning Donbas as traditional π·πΊ territory" are the real reasons for its invasion of Ukraine.
So, what is Donbas? Is it really π·πΊ region? Was it always like that?

The word "Donbas" is derived from the term "Donets Coal Basin", referring to the area along the Donets river where most of the coal reserves were found.
This basin spreads to parts of Luhansk, Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, and Kharkiv regions in πΊπ¦ and part of Rostov region in π·πΊ.
