hen we think of Islamic presence in Ukraine,
Crimea is the first place to come to mind. The
Crimean Khanate, which lasted for more
than three centuries, ruled not only over the
peninsula, but also over vast territories in Southern
Ukraine, including parts of today's Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson oblasts. The influence of the Ottoman Empire covered Mykolayiv and Odesa oblasts
which at the end of the 18th century were home to the
Nogai Horde. These lands were called Bucak (between
the Danube and the Dniester) and Yedisan (between the
Dniester and the Southern Bug). Some historians would
also recall the Kamyanets Eyalet, which existed during
the Ottoman rule in the south of the modern Khmelnytsky Oblast, the west of Vinnytsia Oblast and a part of
Chernivtsi Oblast (1672–1699)—all in South-Western
Ukraine. Today, Islam is mostly associated with the
South-East of Ukraine, since the largest Muslim communities are left in the annexed Crimea and in the Donbas,
and even migration to other oblasts has not changed the
situation dramatically.
