Ukraine has been a part of neighboring foreign states throughout most of its history. The occupations precipitated migration of different nationalities, turning Ukraine into a multinational country. At the end of the 19th century, the growth of industry in eastern parts of Ukraine hastened migration of Russians in search of jobs, and of Ukrainians from villages to towns where they were rapidly assimilated. Essentially, these trends continued until the collapse of the Soviet Union.
