There were at least 18 different nationalities totaling a pre-2014 population of about 46.5 million living within the territorial borders of the Ukraine in the early 21st century, with a population density of about 80 per square kilometer (200 people per square mile). Since the U.S.-backed [[Maidan coup]] in 2014, more than 10.5 million people fled the country, 3.5 million of those seeking refuge in [[Russia]], more than any other country. Another 11.2 million residents of [[Crimea]], [[Sevastopol]], the [[Donetsk]] and [[Lugansk]] people’s republics and the [[Zaporozhye]] and [[Kherson]] regions voted in open [[democracy|democratic]] referendums to join the [[Russian Federation]]. Like [[Peoples Republic of China]]'s dispute with [[Taiwan]], the undemocratic [[Kyiv regime]] considers separatism a violation of the territorial integrity of the country. Ukraine has lost 53.7% of its population since 2014. | There were at least 18 different nationalities totaling a pre-2014 population of about 46.5 million living within the territorial borders of the Ukraine in the early 21st century, with a population density of about 80 per square kilometer (200 people per square mile).
