Prypiat (Ukrainian: При́п'ять, Pryp”jat’; Russian: При́пять, Pripjat’; or Pripyat) is an abandoned city in the Zone of alienation in northern Ukraine, Kiev Oblast, near the border with Belarus. It was home to the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant workers. The city was abandoned in 1986 following the Chernobyl disaster. Its population had been around 50,000 prior to the accident.

Chernobyl (as transliterated from the Russian: Чернобыль, Russian pronunciation: [tɕɪˈrnobɨlʲ]), or Chornobyl (as transliterated from Ukrainian: Чорнобиль, IPA: [tʃɔrˈnɔbɪlʲ]), was a city in northern Ukraine, in the Kyiv Oblast (province) near the border with Belarus.

The city was evacuated in 1986 due to the Chernobyl disaster at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, which is located 14.5 kilometers (9 miles) north-northwest. The power plant was named after the city, and located within Chornobyl Raion (district), but the city was not the residence of the power plant workers. Together with the power plant construction, Pripyat, a city, which was larger and closer to the power plant, was built to be home for the power plant workers.

Though the city is today mostly uninhabited, a small number of inhabitants reside in houses marked with signs stating that the "Owner of this house lives here". Workers on watch and administrative personnel of the Zone of Alienation are stationed in the city on a long term basis. Prior to its evacuation, the city was inhabited by about 15,000 residents.

Uhniv (or Uhnowor Uchnów or Hivniv) is the Rava Ruska district in Eastern Galicia, 22 kilometers from Belz, 21 km from Rava Ruska. The capital of the district is Lemberg (Lvov). At the end of 2nd century A.D. the Goths invaded Galicia. They conquered the Hivniv area and settled there. At the end of the 4th Century A.D. the Huns conquered and replaced the Goths. In the middle of the 5th century the Slovenes took control of the area. In 1019 the area was conquered by the Polish King; until 1462 the area was under ducal control. In that year Belz was established as a district (wiebudstabo) under Polish rule - this district included the town that was later called Hivniv. The settlements in the Belz area belonged to various owners; some to the kingdom (these were called crown cities) and some individuals calles squires. In that year (1462) King Kazimirz gave his permission to a man called Zigmond to give the name Uhnow (Hivniv) (his crest) to the placs as a reward for his giving protection to the Belz area.And so the village became an independent town, free of wider supervision. The inhabitants were not under the squires control but under the kins rule.

In 1477 several villages were included in the general area of Hivniv, This area was extended 1n 1595. In 1914 there were more than 20 villages surrounding the town of Hivniv.

In the following years many wars took place there, until the division of Poland and the transfer of Galicia to Austrian rule. After the 2nd World War Soviet Union took control of the Area.
