Cherkasy Oblast, Administrative division in central Ukraine.
The province spans across 20,903 square kilometers on both sides of the Dnieper River, with western hills and eastern plains shaping its landscape.
The region gained its administrative status in 1954 when it was established as part of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, incorporating cities like Cherkasy and Uman.
The region maintains numerous archeological sites, medieval churches, and museums that document settlements dating back to the Paleolithic period along the Dnieper River.
The area contains four administrative districts - Cherkasy, Uman, Zolotonosha, and Zvenyhorodka - which together include 66 territorial communities for local governance.
The region produces significant quantities of winter wheat, sugar beets, and corn, while its capital city houses major chemical manufacturing facilities.
