Prykarpattia

Ukrainian Carpathians, dividing Prykarpattia (on north-eastern side) from Zakarpattia (on south-western side)

Prykarpattia (Ukrainian: Прикарпаття) is a Ukrainian term for Ciscarpathia, a physical geographical region for the northeastern Carpathian foothills.[1]

Located at the outer foot of the Eastern Carpathian Mountains (Outer Subcarpathia), consisting of today's Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast (predominantly) and Lviv Oblast (partially), it forms part of the larger historic region of Galicia (Haliczyna); which before the 14th century was a part of the Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia. Along with the Lviv, Chernivtsi and Zakarpattia regions, Prykarpattia is a component of the Carpathian Euroregion.
