The draft law on renaming the Dnipropetrovsk Region to Sicheslavsk Region, on the one hand, is based on the request of the local community, on the other hand, it is based on a long-standing historical tradition. After all, during the 16th-17th centuries, 5 out of 8 Zaporozhian Sichs were located on the territory of modern Dnipropetrovsk Region. And the Central Rada (the Central Council of Ukraine) used the name Sicheslav for the modern city of Dnipro.
