Ukraine’s Unity Day is celebrated each year on January 22.
It marks the date in 1919 when the Western Ukrainian People’s Republic and the Ukrainian People’s Republic, signed a treaty to unite into one independent nation.
In 1990, during the final days of the Soviet Union, Ukrainians celebrated Unity Day by forming a symbolic human chain that stretched nearly 500 kilometers from Kyiv to Lviv.
