A village is a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet but smaller than a town, with a population ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. Though villages are often located in rural areas, the term urban village is also applied to certain urban neighborhoods. Villages are normally permanent, with fixed dwellings; however, transient villages can occur. Further, the dwellings of a village are fairly close to one another, not scattered broadly over the landscape, as a dispersed settlement.
Gmina Zagórz is an urban-rural gmina in Sanok County, Subcarpathian Voivodeship, in south-eastern Poland. Its seat is the town of Zagórz, which lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) south-east of Sanok and 61 km (38 mi) south of the regional capital Rzeszów.
The Ukrainian population of Morochów has been expelled by the Polish government in 1947, during the Operation Vistula. Nowadays, Morochów has a population of 300.
Operation Vistula was a codename for the 1947 forced resettlement of the Ukrainian minority as well as Boykos and Lemkos from the south-eastern provinces of post-war Poland, to the Recovered Territories in the west of the country. The action was carried out by the Soviet-installed Polish communist authorities with the aim of removing material support and assistance to the Ukrainian Insurgent Army. The Ukrainian Insurgent Army continued its guerilla activities until 1947 in both Subcarpathian and Lublin Voivodeships with no hope for any peaceful resolution. Operation Vistula effectively brought an end to the hostilities.
