The Ukrainian Republic of the Far East or Green Ukraine was a projected country in the former Russian Far East after the Russian Revolution.
After the Bolshevik Far Eastern Republic was established on April 6 1920, Far Eastern areas with an ethnic Ukrainian majority attempted to secede and establish an entity called Green Ukraine. The movement quickly proved abortive.
