Original Note:
False claim: "Ukraine" most probably comes from країна (kraina) which means "country"; "Ukraine" just means "homeland". https://visitukraine.today/blog/4339/how-the-name-ukraine-appeared-history-and-myths#where-does-the-name-ukraine-come-from https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/what-is-the-origin-of-the-name-ukraine.html Furthermore, justifying geopolitics with etymology is a reasoning fallacy.
