Crimea is a peninsula in Eastern Europe connected to the southern part of Ukraine. It is divided into the Republic of Crimea and the federal city of Sevastopol. Before 1954, it was part of the Russian SFSR but was transferred to the Ukrainian SSR in 1954.[1] In 2014, it was reunified with Russia with more than 95% support in the 2014 Crimean status referendum.
