Ivano-Frankivsk ((ウクライナ語:Іва́но-Франкі́вськ) ; formerly Stanyslaviv,〔(The Sad End of the Orange Revolution ), Der Spiegel (14 January 2010)〕 Stanislau, or Stanisławów; see below) is a historic city located in the western Ukraine. It is the administrative centre of the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. Administratively, it is designated as a city of regional significance within the oblast, and together with a number of rural localities, is incorporated as Ivano-Frankivsk Municipality. Population: . Built in the mid 17th century as a private fortress of the Polish Potocki family, with the partition of Poland in 1772 Stanisławów was passed to the Habsburg Empire, after which it became the property of the State authorities of the Austrian Empire. It was during that time that the fortress was transformed into one of the most prominent cities at the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains. After World War I, for a short stint it served as temporary capital of the West Ukrainian People's Republic, after the fall of which Stanisławów became part of the Second Polish Republic. At the dawn of World War II, the city was annexed by the Soviet Union, only to be occupied by Nazi Germany two years later. With the liberation of Ukraine in 1944, a Soviet regime was established in the city for the next 45 years. A few years before the fall of the Soviet Union, the blue-yellow flag was raised in the city as the symbol of an independent Ukraine. A city visitor may find elements of various cultures intertwined within Ivano-Frankivsk, the Polish Rathaus, the Austrian city's business center, the Soviet panel multi-storied residential apartment buildings at the city's urban-rural fringe, and others. The city is third in population among other cities in the Carpathian Euroregion, yielding only to Lviv and Košice. ==Name== Stanisławów was founded as a fortress in 1663 and was named after the Polish hetman Stanisław "Rewera" Potocki, although other sources claim it was named after his grandson (''see'' History of Ivano-Frankivsk). In 1772, its name was transliterated into German as Stanislau when it became part of the Austrian Empire and later Austria-Hungary; however, after the revolution of 1848, the city carried three different linguistic renderings of its name: German, Polish, and Ruthenian ((ドイツ語:Stanislau), ; (ポーランド語:Stanisławów), ); (ウクライナ語:Станісла́вів), ''Stanyslaviv'', . Other spellings used in the local press-media included: (ロシア語:Станиславов) and (イディッシュ語:סטאַניסלאוו). After World War II it was changed by the Soviet authorities into a simplified version Stanislav ((ウクライナ語:Станісла́в), ; (ロシア語:Станисла́в), ). In 1962, on the city's 300th anniversary, it was renamed to honor the Ukrainian writer Ivan Franko. Due to the city's over-sized name, unofficially it is sometimes called simply Franyk〔(Informational portal of the Region ) 〕 by its residents. Even though Ivano-Frankivsk is the officially accepted name, the city's original name was never fully abandoned and/or forgotten and can be found throughout the city in all kinds of variations. ;Name change *1662 founded as Stanisławów *1772 transliteration change to Stanislau *1919 transliteration change to Stanislaviv *1919 transliteration change to Stanisławów *1939 transliteration change to Stanislav *1941 transliteration change to Stanislau *1944 transliteration change to Stanislav *November 9, 1962 name change to Ivano-Frankivsk (as an honour to Ivan Franko) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ivano-Frankivsk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
