KHARKIVS'KA PROVINCE
The name of Slobids'ka Ukraine is given to a big region, which occupies the territory of the present Kharkiv, Luhans'k, part Sumy, Donets'k, Kurs'k, Bilhorod and Voronizh regions. Slobozhanshchyna was a member of Chernihivs'ko-Sivers'ke principality in the X-XIII centuries. The Tartar raids made that region uninhabited. Only in the first half of the XVII century the Ukrainians began to inhabit that territory. In some decades that Wild Field became a prosperous region. There were founded and inhabited such towns as Sumy, Lebedyn, Okhtyrka and a great number of settlements which gave the name Slobozhanshchyna. During 20 years out of Getmanshchyna has grown a new Slobids'ka Ukraine with the Cossacs regimental government. Here were formed five Cossacs regiments: Ostrozhs'kyi, Kharkivs'kyi, Sums'kyi, Okhtyrs'kyi, Izums'kyi. Kharkivs'ka province had two emblems.
