Chernivtsi Oblast, Administrative region in southwestern Ukraine.

Chernivtsi Oblast extends across 8,100 square kilometers between Romania and Moldova, featuring rolling plateaus, mountains, and the rivers Prut and Dnister.

The territory became an administrative oblast in 1940, incorporating parts of Bukovina and Bessarabia following shifts of power between Romania and the Soviet Union.

The region maintains multiple languages and traditions through its mix of Ukrainian, Romanian, and Moldovan communities, reflected in local festivals and customs.

The region connects Ukraine with Romania through extensive road networks, rail lines, and border crossings, facilitating trade between Eastern and Western Europe.

The National University of Chernivtsi houses a botanical garden containing over 1,300 plant species, contributing to regional scientific research and conservation efforts.
