The term Dnieper Ukraine (Ukrainian: Наддніпрянщина, romanized: Naddniprianshchyna: "over Dnieper land"), usually refers to territory on either side of the middle course of the Dnieper River. The Ukrainian name derives from nad‑ + Dnipró ("Dnieper") + ‑shchyna. Historically, this region is tightly entwined with the history of Ukraine and is considered as the heart of the country. Due to its size, the region is conditionally subdivided into Upper Dnieper Ukraine, Central Dnieper Ukraine, and Lower Dnieper Ukraine in reference to Dnieper's stream flow. Upper and Central separate at mouth of Desna River which is roughly the city of Kyiv, while Lower and Central around Khortytsia which is roughly the city of Zaporizhia.
