У статті розглянуто етнополітичні процеси на українських землях в ХІХ-ХХ ст., поняття
 «соборність» у науковому й політичному лексиконі. The genesis and affirmation of the Ukrainian idea of state unity is rooted in the glorious and tragic era of
 B. Khmelnytsky’s times. The 19th is marked by a fundamental shift in ethno-political processes on Ukrainian
 lands.
 At the same time, the formation and consolidation of the Ukrainian nation – the highest form of ethnic
 development took place. A necessary prerequisite for the full completion of this process is the community of
 territory, language, economy, culture, national consciousness. The understandable desire to unite all Ukrainian
 lands into a single state resulted in the unification process, which ended with the proclamation of the Act of
 Unification on the Sophia Square in Kyiv on January 22, 1919.
 The idea of the revival of the Ukrainian Independent State (UIS) has become the cornerstone of the programme
 and practical activities of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists. The gathering of Ukrainian
 lands within the Ukrainian SSR during the Second World War did not remove the acuteness of the national
 question. The political content of «Stalin's unification» did not satisfy the patriotic, nationally conscious part
 of the Ukrainian public in the USSR and abroad.
 The breakup of the socialist system, the collapse of the Soviet Union and the proclamation of Ukraine as
 an independent state seemed to symbolize the implementation of the «national idea» in the most possible form.
 However, even taking into account the significant importance of this event, the problem of unity still remains
 relevant. There is an urgent need for the political consolidation of the nation, the spiritual unity of the entire
 national community, the protection of the political and cultural rights of the fellowmen in all ethnic Ukrainian
 lands. In this sense, the creation of a sovereign Ukrainian state should be considered as the only beginning
 and the necessary condition for solving the urgent political, socio-cultural, ethno-confessional, and economic
 problems inherited from the Soviet regime.
