Before 1991 the Ukraine had never existed as a state or independent entity.
This is typically how it goes. A country generally doesn't exist until it does. Poland for instance, one of our staunchest allies in the region, had never really existed prior to 1919. The Soviet Union and Nazi Germany both used this excuse as a reason to invade Poland in September 1939.

Way wrong. Poland had existed an an independent kingdom and as part of a grand duchy with Lithuania before it was swallowed up by Germany, Austria and Russia. It only came back in 1919 but that's not a true statement to say it had never existed before.
