    🚩 Khmelnytsky Uprising was a brutal war that lasted nearly a decade (1648 to 1657). Cossack warriors, under Bohdan Khmelnytsky rose against the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, eventually winning their independence. However, this victory gradually led to the incorporation of eastern Ukraine into Russia, as Cossacks swore allegiance to the Tsar in exchange for greater autonomy than they enjoyed under Polish-Lithuanian rule. Ultimately, the war led to the period known as “The Ruin”. The Battle of Zhovti Vody was the first major battle of the Khmelnytsky Uprising.

    🚩 On 27 September 1605, King Charles IX of Sweden penned the following note in his diary: “Was fought the Battle of Kircholm. There many a brave hero fell due to his craven heart. I was hacked in the head but praise the Lord not hurt. I lost the battle.”
    With these few words the king summed up what was perhaps the worst defeat in Swedish history. It was even more costly than the far-better-known Battle of Poltava, a little over a century later. And the battle was lost even though the Swedish army was three times as strong as the victorious Polish-Lithuanian army. Enemy casualties were minimal. It was a humiliating defeat.
