PLEASE, fix cultures in Ruthenia:
#KyivNotKiev and #ChernihivNotChernigov

Chernigov area has in reality Ukrainian/Ruthenian culture: Chernihiv, Novhorod-Siverskyi, Sumy, base names in game: Chernigov(289), Severia(1945), Rylsk (4543) respectively are NOT "Ryazanian".

Chernihiv is old Ruthenian city, it`s like Northern Kyiv for Ukraine.

Respectively Chernihiv tag [CHR] have to be also Ruthenian.

Kyiv, Pereiaslav and Chernihiv is a heartland of Ruthenia/Kyivan Rus.

It will be great to see right names of Ukrainian tags:
Kyiv [KIE], Chernihiv [CHR], Zaporozhia [ZAZ], Halychyna-Volyn [VOL].

Also during the game period: Brest(277), Pinsk(278) and Turov(1941) in modern Belarus was Ruthenian up to 20 century, while Trubchevsk(4244) and Smolensk(293) in Russia was predominantly Belorusian.

By googling of "Dialektologicheskaia_Karta_1914_goda" you can find old Russian Imperial map which confirm my words.
Ukrainian language is green and Belorusian is blue there.

Untill 1452 - Volynian duchy and untill 1471 - Kyivan duchy existed in Ukraine as vasals of Lithuania. They have to be in game, meanwhile Lithuania should have cores on all their lands like Morroco have in Sus.

Also Zaporozhia (Viisko Zaporozke Nyzove) was not a Hetmanate. It was military republic with Sich Rada government type, wich was rulled by Koshovyi Otamans.
After Bohdan Khmelnystkyi uprising in Central Ukraine was created state Viisko Zaporozke ia government form of elective monarchy: Hetmanate, wich was ruled by Hetmans.
For some time Zaporozhia was included in Hetmanate but than it recieved authonomy or was independent form Hetmanate.

But Bohdan Khmelnytskyi had tried to create hereditary monarchy by maridge of his son Tymosh with daughter of Duke of Moldavia Vasile Lupu but Tymosh, his wife and Duke Vasile Lupu himself was killed by Moldavian pretenders soon after maridge. It can by one of the way of state development as regular monarchy in the missions.

After the death of Bohdan in Hetmanate was elected new Hetman Ivan Vyhovsky. He in alliance with Crimean tatars won the Konotop battle against almost twice larger Muscovite army.

Soon after in Hetmanate was series of civil wars inspired from Muscovy in most cases and that period was known in Ukrainian history as Ruin as resault Hetmanate was split in two parts by Dnipro rivers which became vassals of Commonwealth and Muscovy respectfuly and Zaporozhia also became Muscovite vassal and then was annexed.

Cherkasy can not have 3 dev like desert... Ruthenian lands was more developed at least in human resourse and have great natural wealth.

For example, Ukrainian cossacks before the battle of Khotyn in 1621 have 50 000 troops in Sich rada from which 37 000 have taken part in battle (were also was 28 000 of polish army) menwhile others cossacks stay in the Sich or made raid in Ottomans coasts of Black See.

Also in Zaporozhia [ZAZ] there are wrong names of generals: female names or even last name of famous female Ukrainian author....
While Kyiv [KIE] and Volyn [VOL] have Russian names of rulers...

I can help you to make right naming of Ruthenian culture, understand Ukrainian history and sugest new historical Ruthenian tags, new missions and national ideas.

Ruthenia itself has to have unique missions.

Thank you for your work!

P.S. It would be good for hordes make the tribes estate to do raids in neighbor non-horde countries like cossack estate do by events.
