About this person
Ivan Skoropadsky served as Hetman of the Zaporizhian Host from 1708 to 1722, succeeding Ivan Mazepa after the latter's alliance with Sweden during the Great Northern War. Elected at the insistence of tsar Peter I, who considered him a weaker politician than other members of the Cossack elite, Skoropadsky presided over the Hetmanate during a period when its autonomy was increasingly limited by the Russian government. After his death, control over affairs in Ukraine was transferred to the Collegium of Little Russia.
