Zaporozhye is a city in the southeast of Ukraine, located on the banks of the Dnieper River. This is an administrative center in the Zaporozhye region (province). It is administratively included as a city of regional importance and serves as the administrative center of the Zaporozhye district, although it does not belong to the district. At present the city is the sixth largest in Ukraine. Population: 757 650 people (2015). Until 1921 the city bore the name Aleksandrovsk after the name of the fortress, which was part of the Dnipro Line of Defense. After the establishment of Soviet power in Ukraine in 1921, the name was changed to Zaporozhye, in honor of the historical region of Zaporozhye. Zaporozhye itself literally means Trans-Rapids or the rapids, referring to the rapids that existed on the Dnieper at that time, before the construction of the Dnieper Hydroelectric Power Station in 1932. Archaeological finds in this area show that Scythian nomads lived there two or three thousand years ago. After the Scythians, the Khazars, Pechenegs, Kumans, Tatars and Eastern Slavs came to the land. The trading route from the Varangians to the Greeks passed through Khortitsa. In 1552, Dmitry Vishnevetsky built wooden fortifications on the small island of Little Khortitsa, which is located near the western shore of the island of Khortitsa. Scientists believe that these fortifications were a prototype of Zaporozhye Sich. Sich was a stronghold of the Cossacks who lived in the south of the Dnieper rapids on the border of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Grand Duchy of Moscow.
