The result was an eradication of the control of the Polish szlachta and their Jewish intermediaries, and the end of ecclesiastical jurisdiction for the Latin Rite Catholics (as well as Karaites , and other arendators ) over the country. The Uprising started as the rebellion of the Cossacks , but as other Orthodox Christian classes (peasants, burghers, petty nobility ) of the Ukrainian palatinates joined them, the ultimate aim became a creation of Ukrainian autonomous state . The Uprising succeeded in ending the Polish influence over those Cossack lands that were eventually taken by the Tsardom of Russia . These events, along with internal conflicts and hostilities with Sweden and Russia, resulted in severely diminished Polish power during this period (referred to in Polish history as The Deluge ). also Khmel'nyts'kyi/Chmielnicki Uprising or Khmelnytsky / Chmielnicki Rebellion Paul Robert Magocsi .

The result was the end of Polish szlachta control and of ecclesiastical jurisdiction for the Latin Rite Catholics and arendators over the region. The Uprising has taken on a symbolic meaning in the story of Ukraine's relationship with Russia . It resulted in the incorporation of eastern Ukraine into the Tsardom of Muscovy at the Pereiaslav Agreement , where the Cossacks swore an oath of allegiance to the tsar . This, according to the poet and artist, Taras Shevchenko , brought about his people's 'enslavement' under Russia.

The Khmelnytsky Uprising , also known as the National-Liberation War , the Cossack-Polish War , or the Khmelnytsky insurrection , was a Cossack rebellion that took place between 1648 and 1657 in the eastern territories of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth , which led to the creation of a Cossack Hetmanate in Ukraine. Under the command of Hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky , the Zaporozhian Cossacks , allied with the Crimean Tatars and local Ukrainian peasantry , fought against Polish domination and Commonwealth’s forces. The insurgency was accompanied by mass atrocities committed by Cossacks against the civilian population, especially against the Roman Catholic and Ruthenian Uniate clergy and the Jews , as well as savage reprisals by Jeremi Wiśniowiecki , the voivode of the Ruthenian Voivodeship . The uprising has a symbolic meaning in the history of Ukraine's relationship with Poland and Russia . It ended the Polish Catholic szlachta ′s domination over the Ukrainian Orthodox population; at the same time, it led to the eventual incorporation of eastern Ukraine into the Tsardom of Russia initiated by the 1654 Pereiaslav Agreement , whereby the Cossacks would swear allegiance to the tsar while retaining a wide degree of autonomy. The event triggered a period of political turbulence and infighting in the Hetmanate known as the Ruin . The success of the anti-Polish rebellion, along with internal conflicts in Poland , as well as concurrent wars waged by Poland with Russia and Sweden (the Russo-Polish War (1654–1667) and Second Northern War (1655–1660) respectively), ended the Polish Golden Age and caused a secular decline of Polish power during the period known in Polish history as the Deluge . In Jewish history , the Uprising is known for the concomitant outrages against the Jews who, in their capacity as leaseholders ( arendators ), were seen by the peasants as their immediate oppressors.

Founder of the Cossack Hetmanate, Khmelnytsky led a successful uprising against the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from 1648 to 1657 , ultimately establishing an independent Cossack state. Ukraine had the most to offer to general European discussions in the question of how a successful revolt could be mounted in the seventeenth century that could fulfill many of the criteria of a revolution. After nearly a decade of bloodshed, the uprising was successful, overthrowing Polish-Lithuanian rule. Khmelnytsky was the hetman who led the successful seventeenth-century uprising that freed many Ukrainian lands from Polish rule, but in the process, numerous Poles and Jews were killed, and the Cossack leader is depicted as a villain in their historiographies.
