In The Russian Empire (1667/1793–1917) and Austria-Hungary (1526/1772–1918)
After the dissolution of the Cossack Hetmanate, a new Malorossiyan collegium was established in 1764, and the Zaporozhian Host was disbanded in 1775. As a result of the second and third Partitions of Poland in 1793 and 1795, eastern and central parts of Ukraine were incorporated directly into the Russian Empire. Western Ukraine was annexed into the Habsburg Monarchy earlier, in the following order: Carpathian Ruthenia (1526), Galicia (1772), and Bukovina (1775).
The Russian Empire existed until 1917, and the Dual Monarchy, Austria–Hungary, existed until 1918.
