Anti-Ukrainian sentments are the most fierce currently in Sevastopol as the city habors the naval base of the Russian Federation. Anyone who speaks the Ukrainian language was being radiculed and teased from their childhood in the times of the Soviet Union. Speaking Ukrainian was considered a sign of the low cultural development and/or simply the undeveloped dialect of the Great Russian language. All of the Ukrainian political leaders that tried to fight that problem were dicredited, imprisoned, and killed: Simon Petliura, Mazepa, Viktor Yuschenko. The Ukrainian communities inside of the Russian Federation were denied to open their own schools such in the Saratov Oblast, Kuban, Siriy Klyn. The Russian-Ukrainian war of 1918 became known in history as the Russian Civil war even though the RSFSR officially recognized the government of the UNR. The population of Podillya and other parts of Ukraine was being slaughtered by the order of Yezhov in 1920's by being called as the nationalists.
