There are 10 hundred of them, of which 6 are Nezhinok (1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 8), an unusual phenomenon, and the last one has two names, but all according to locality. Cossacks in the Nezhinsky regiment 991.

There are about 7 of them all; According to the eo;shadow, the Chernigovsky and Nezhinsky regiments at that time were the fewest in number. In the 1st hundred, Borzentsi is especially noted, although it is followed by the Vorznyanskaya hundred. There are 1,007 Cossacks in it.
And so all the Cossacks in these “Reesgra” are 87,745.
Taking a closer look at these “Registers of the entire Zaporozhian army,” we see that there are 16 regiments in them, of which 9 are on the right bank of the Dnipro and 7 on the left. In each of them there is one such regiment, which subsequently disappears: on the right is the Kalnitsky regiment, along Kalnik, on the Sobe River, in Vinnitsa Uyezd: 4 years later, when united with Moscow Tsaretvo, the Vinnitsky regiment appears instead: on the left bank there was such a regiment of Kropivensky, whose place was taken after by the Lubensky regiment; then regiments were formed here: Gadyatsky and behind the Desna Seversksh, replaced after S'tarodubsky. It is also remarkable that upon entry into captivity, all 17 regiments were counted under the “high hand,” i.e., a new regiment “Pavolotsky” appeared (the town of Skvirsky Uyezd Pavo-

loch) on the right bank of the Dnipro. In other chronicles and collections, instead of the Prilutsky regiment, the Ostryansky regiment, or both together, is shown at this time (1649-1650 onwards). The small number of hundreds and, therefore, Cossacks in the Nizhinsky and Chernihiv regiments, it seems, can be explained by this. that at that time not all of the North was imbued with the spirit of the Cossacks: later, as we know, these regiments were among the most numerous.
The space embraced by these 16 regiments was quite a huge possession: from the west of the Goryn with Sluch and Dniester rivers to the confluence of Yegorlik, from the north of Pripet. The Dnipro at the confluence of the Iput and the Desna and Seim at the mouth of the Klevan. from the east the upper reaches of the Seima rivers. Sula, Psela and Vorskla. and from the south the peaks of Iigula and Ingulets. Tiligul and Kuyalnik along the mouth of Yegorlik. And this is only thanks to the moderation of the Zaporozhye Leader and his South Russian people. Was there? Of course, more is in mind with such an extraordinary success in the fight against the enemy, but for the first time this was enough: „&{ иі.из ІІСІІІ8 аь§ітиІ8§е попІ8.и This new ruler, who recognized his support to the King of Poland under the treaty, was in essence an original and strong ruler, because he had no only by registered warriors, but, as experience has shown, by the strength of all their people, who, as the Samovidets notes, “having heard about the destruction of the Crown and Hetman troops, they immediately began to buy into regiments, not only these, but also those who never (never) knew the Erosatstva.... in different cities. And exactly, when there was a lot of murmur when the “Registers” were compiled, in which, despite a certain number, each of those who fought wanted to be included, Hetman consoled those who were not included in them. that not only in the “Registers” Cossacks:,, But why
