The third decade of independence completely changed Ukraine. It was a period where Ukrainians defended their convictions and freedom, first during the Revolution of Dignity, and then later in resistance to the Russian Federation's armed aggression in the Donbas and Crimea.
The Revolution of Dignity was a mass protest movement in which Ukrainians took to the streets for four months between November 2013 to March 2014. It was sparked by then-president Viktor Yanukovych sharply and suddenly changing the political direction of Ukraine from pro-European to pro-Russian, and then cracking down violently when people voiced their opposition. Immediately after the difficult victory of the Revolution, Ukrainians were forced to mobilise again against the military aggression of the Russian Federation and the occupation of Ukrainian territory. For the past seven years, Ukraine has been forced to protect its borders and fight for its territorial integrity.
Despite these conditions, Ukraine's third decade saw its transformation into a mature society, as well as the consolidation of Ukrainians as a political nation. The country has been implementing reforms aimed at decentralisation, decommunisation, fighting corruption, the creation of new political institutions, the development of its military, the modernisation of its law enforcement agencies as well as of its medical and educational systems.
