Ukraine Economy, People, Culture and Flag

1   2

People of Ukraine : Ukraine houses quite a multicultural medley as far as its population is concerned. Though the Ukranians form a majority, there are others too like the Lemkos-Rusyns, Russians, Greeks, Belarusians, Poles, Moldovans, Germans, Gagauz, Romanians, Karaim, Armenians, Jews and also Tartars. The amalgam of all these races reflects in the cultures and the diversity of the country. However, the harmony in which they live is quite remarkable.

Arts, Culture and Music of Ukraine : in the culture of Ukraine can be found a commingling of cultural elements from its neighbors who lie to its east and its west. Just in case you didn't know it, the Easter egg was born in Ukraine; in fact, the tradition of making of Easter Eggs precedes the country's Christian tradition. The most famous of the types of music originating in Ukraine is called the “Capella”, which is performed by a single singer and has a collective chorus of two or more persons. Most songs are sung to the accompaniment of the instrument called “Bandura” – a stringed instrument. Ukraine has plenty of traditional dances. Grachanyky, Metelitsya, Kozak and Chabarashka are the names of a few.

Flag of Ukraine : the flag of Ukraine is extremely uncomplicated and lucid in design. It is a rectangular flag having no symbols on it; and is completely dominated by two colors – azure and golden yellow (top to bottom). The two colors appear in two equal horizontal stripes. The color azure symbolizes the sky and the yellow stands for the lush fields.

Economy of Ukraine : the economy of the Ukraine is mainly supported by its mining and agricultural industry. Among the list of the things that it exports are metals of different types like steel, petroleum and its by-products, transport equipment, machinery, chemicals, timber and processed packaged food. The natural mineral resources include sulfur, mercury, iron ore, nickel, coal, kaolin, manganese, magnesium, natural gas, titanium, oil, graphite and salt.
