As one of Eastern Europe's oldest commercial centres, rich in centuries-old history, Kyiv is the capital and most populous city of Ukraine. Straddling the Dnieper River in north-central Ukraine, the city effortlessly combines its industrial, scientific, educational and cultural roles, making it a standout in Eastern Europe's urban landscapes.

Kyiv is home to a multitude of high-tech industries, prestigious education establishments, and noteworthy historical landmarks. With a name said to originate from its legendary founder, Kyi, Kyiv has seen a splendid history, from its founding in the 5th century, through the Mongol invasions and Soviet era, to becoming an independent nation's flourishing capital.

Over the years, the city has proven its resilience, bouncing back from complete destruction and steadily growing in salaries, investments, and infrastructure development after Ukraine's independence in 1991. Today, English speakers all over the world have begun preferring 'Kyiv' over the traditional 'Kiev', a shift in recognition prompted by the aftermath of the Russo-Ukrainian War in 2014.
