Anna Sten
Ukrainian-born Hollywood actress Anna Sten (1908 – 1993) rose from Kyiv’s theatre scene and early Soviet silents to German talkies before Samuel Goldwyn brought her to the United States, promoting her as “the next Greta Garbo.” Notable films include Nana (1934), We Live Again (1934) and The Wedding Night (1935). Her cosmopolitan career and star-making myth embody the transnational currents of 1930s cinema.

The site of the Battle of Poltava in 1709 is marked on the map; the lands of Transdanubian Sich, which were transferred to Turkey in 1711, are marked as part of the Crimean Khanate; the specified construction of the Perekop Wall, etc. In the cartouche, the territory is named Vkraina in the Latin manner, and already on the map itself it is marked as Ukraina.
