Velyki Ukraïntsi

The Greatest Ukrainians (Ukrainian: Великі українці, romanized: Velyki ukrainstsi) was a Ukrainian TV project. The programme was the result of a vote conducted to determine whom the Ukrainian public considers the greatest Ukrainians to have lived in history. According to Savik Shuster, more than 2.5 million people participated in the voting.

The show was running under a license from the BBC and originally appeared on British TV under the name 100 Greatest Britons and was successful. Such countries as Canada, France, Germany, Romania and many others have also created their own versions.
