Description

The West Ukrainian People's Republic was proclaimed on November 1, 1918 with Lviv as its capital. The proclamation of the Republic, which claimed sovereignty over Eastern Galicia, including the Carpathians up to the city of Nowy Sącz in the West, as well as Volhynia, Carpathian Ruthenia and Bukovina was a complete surprise for the Poles. Although the majority of the population of the Western-Ukrainian People's Republic were Ukrainians, large parts of the claimed territory were considered Polish by the Poles. In Lviv the Ukrainian residents enthusiastically supported the proclamation, the city's significant Jewish minority accepted or remained neutral towards the Ukrainian proclamation, while the Polish minority was shocked to find themselves in a proclaimed Ukrainian state.

Во Львове украинские жители с энтузиазмом поддержала провозглашение, в городе значительного еврейского меньшинства принята или оставался нейтральным в отношении украинского провозглашения, а польского меньшинства был потрясен, чтобы найти себя в провозгласила Украинское государство.
