Outline Map of Ukraine
Ukraine is an Eastern European country with a rich history and diverse geography. With a population of over 42 million people, Ukraine is the second-largest country in Europe after Russia. It borders several other nations including Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Belarus and Russia.
Our first map is an outline map of Ukraine only showing the outer boundaries of the Ukrainian territory. As in all of our maps, the parts of Ukraine currently (at the time of writing) occupied by Russian forces are included as integral parts of the country.
This first map above can be used for many different purposes. For instance, you could draw geographical features like rivers and mountain ranges as well as the location of certain cities and towns into the map. You might also want to use it to illustrate the development of the front lines in the war between Ukraine and Russia or similar tasks.
Some of the landmarks you might want to draw into the map are the major rivers of Ukraine (Dnieper river, Southern Bug, Dniester, Siverskyi Donets and others), the Carpathian Mountains or the Crimean Mountains. You could also shade different zones of the Ukrainian geography, e.g. the parts belonging to the Great European Plain, forest and lowlands areas, or the steppe areas close to the Black Sea. And finally, you might want to mark where there are deposits of natural resources in Ukraine, such as iron ore, natural gas, manganese, uranium, or titanium.

Our next country map shows all the borders between the Ukrainian oblasts, the neighboring countries of Ukraine, the northern part of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
Use this map to mark all the names of the different land areas and seas or color the map according to your own criteria.
