            October           The treaty of Slobodyschy (Chudniv) of
            1660              Y.Khmelnytsky      with     Poland.    After
                              unsuccessful  campaign  of  Russian  army  to
                              right-bank  Ukraine,  Y.  Khmelnytsky  broke
                              off an alliance with Russia and signed a treaty
                              with Poland, which in many respects resumed
                              the  treaty  of  Hadiach.  However,  Ukraine
                              returned  under  the  rule  of  Polish-Lithuanian
                              Commonwealth  on  autonomous  footing,  but
                              not  as  an  equal  subject  of  federation.
                              Consequences:  Ukraine  was  sundered  into
                              two parts, two separate hetmanates – left-bank
                              Ukraine  (Yakym  Somko,  Y.  Khmelnytsky’s
                              uncle,  was  elected  acting  hetman)  under
                              Russia’s protectorate and right-bank Ukraine,
                              which  was  protectorate  of  Poland  (Y.
                              Khmelnetsky remained hetman there).
            January           Y. Khmelnytsky abdicated hetman mace and
            1663              took the vows as Hedeon.
            1663– 1665        Pavlo  Teterya’s  hetmanate  in  right-bank
                              Ukraine.  His  political  program  declared
                              unification  of  right-bank  and  left-bank  lands
                              under  mace.  He  conducted  open  pro-Polish
                              policy. He took part in the campaign of Polish
                              king  John  ІІ  Casymyr  against  left-bank
                              Ukraine.  He  relied  on  Cossack  starshyna  in
                              home  policy.  His  ignoring  mass  led  to
                              uprising  and  P.  Teterya’s  abdication  of
                              hetman responsibilities.
            1663– 1668        Ivan Bryuhovetsky’s hetmanate in left-bank
                              Ukraine.  He  was  elected  hetman  at  Chorna
                              council in the town of Nizhyn in June 1663.
