Page Created with text from the original Empire article. The article was split in two because this section describes a single theory on the subject and as such should not be a part of an encyclopedic article.

This article is unreferenced, but it was referenced in the original article... for this I have to apologize, as I did not how to transfer the original refs and they got lost in the process. --T.S.Boncompte 15:34, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article needs to be improved

This article basically covers only the works of Alexander Motyl. It should talk more about the person, who he is, when he was born, his civil state, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.214.46.232 (talk) 14:22, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Олень (in Ukrainian) means "deer; hart". It was vandal's joke or vengeance? See:
