The position was established by [[Bohdan Khmelnytsky]] during the [[Cossack Hetmanate]] in the mid 17th century. During that period the office was electoral. All elections, except for the first one, took place in the Senior Council in [[Chyhyryn]] which, until 1669, served as the capital of the Hetmanate.
The position was established by [[Bohdan Khmelnytsky]] during the [[Cossack Hetmanate]] in the mid 17th century. During that period, the office was electoral. All elections, except for the first one, took place in the Senior Council in [[Chyhyryn]], which, until 1669, served as the capital of the Hetmanate.


After the [[Pereiaslav Agreement]] of 1654, several senior cossacks sided with the [[Tsardom of Russia]] and, in 1663, they convened the [[Black Council of 1663]] in [[Nizhyn]] which elected [[Ivan Briukhovetsky]] as an alternative hetman. Since the defeat of [[Petro Doroshenko]] in 1669, the title hetman was adapted by pro-Russian elected hetmans who resided in [[Baturyn]]. In the course of the [[Great Northern War]] one of them, [[Ivan Mazepa]], decided to revolt against Russian rule in 1708, which later drew terrible consequences for the Cossack Hetmanate as well as the Zaporozhian Host. The administration was moved to [[Hlukhiv]] where Mazepa was publicly executed ''[[in effigy]]'' and [[anathema]] was declared upon him by the [[Russian Orthodox Church]].

The Hetman of the Zaporozhian Host (Template:Langx, Template:Langx) was the head of state of the Cossack Hetmanate. The post was a form of elective monarchy. The office was abolished by the Russian government in 1764.

In 1918, the post was restored by Pavlo Skoropadsky as the Hetman of all Ukraine.

Brief history

The position was established by Bohdan Khmelnytsky during the Cossack Hetmanate in the mid 17th century. During that period, the office was electoral. All elections, except for the first one, took place in the Senior Council in Chyhyryn, which, until 1669, served as the capital of the Hetmanate.

After the Pereiaslav Agreement of 1654, several senior Cossacks sided with the Tsardom of Russia and, in 1663, they convened the Black Council of 1663 in Nizhyn, which elected Ivan Briukhovetsky as an alternative hetman, triggering what is known in history as the Ruin. Following the defeat of Petro Doroshenko in 1669, the title of hetman was adopted by the pro-Russian elected hetmans, with their residence in Baturyn. In the course of the Great Northern War, one of them, Ivan Mazepa, decided to revolt against Russian rule in 1708, which later drew terrible consequences for the Cossack Hetmanate as well as the Zaporozhian Host. The administration was moved to Hlukhiv, where Mazepa was publicly executed in effigy and anathema was declared upon him by the Russian Orthodox Church.

By an edict of the Russian Governing Senate of 17 November 1764,[17] the office was disestablished in the course of the expansion of Russian territory towards the Black Sea coast.

Some historians, including Mykola Arkas,[18] question the legitimacy of the Teteria's elections, accusing him of corruption.[19] Some sources claim that the election of Teteria took place in January 1663.[20] The election of Teteria led to the Povoloch Regiment Uprising in 1663, followed by greater unrest in the modern region of Kirovohrad Oblast, as well as Polesie (all in the Right-bank Ukraine).[21] Moreover, the political crisis that followed the Pushkar–Barabash Uprising divided the Cossack Hetmanate completely on both banks of the Dnieper River.[21] Coincidentally, on 10 January 1663 the Tsardom of Muscovy created the new Little Russian Office (Prikaz) within its Ambassadorial Office.

Vouched for by Charles Marie François Olier, marquis de Nointel, Yurii Khmelnytsky was freed from Ottoman captivity and, along with Pasha Ibragim, was sent to Ukraine to fight the Moscow forces of Samoilovych and Romadanovsky. In 1681, Mehmed IV appointed George Ducas hetman of Ukraine, replacing Khmelnytsky.

Following the anathema on Mazepa and the election of Ivan Skoropadsky, the Cossack Hetmanate was included in the Russian Government of Kiev in December 1708. Upon the death of Skoropadsky, the elections oh hetmans were discontinued and were awarded as a gift and a type of princely title, first to Moldavian noblemen and, later, to the Russian Empress's favorites.

On 5 April 1710, the council of cossacks, veterans of the Battle at Poltava, elected Pylyp Orlyk as the Hetman of Ukraine in exile. Orlyk waged a guerrilla war at the southern borders of the Russian Empire with support from the Ottoman and Swedish empires.
