For the Ukrainian side in the conflict, the crucial problem was that the West Ukrainian political-military leaders did not succeed in mobilizing the biggest part of the Ukrainian peasantry for their course as the [[peasant]]s have been much more involved in their [[economic]] for existence than the [[political]] interests. Another problem/question Was how much they have felt themselves as “Ukrainians” at all in order to fight against the Poles. In such a political situation, in order to attract the peasants for the Ukrainian course, the [[Ukrainian nationalist]]s tried to make use of some [[social]]-economic slogans and, therefore, promised the peasantry an [[agricultural]] reform after the war–distribution of [[land]] (the [[Bolshevik|Russian Bolshevik]]s were propagating the same at the same time). Nevertheless, the Ukrainian nationalists used all means of force for the reason to [[mobilize]] the peasants of West Ukraine for the Ukrainian military to fight Poles in East Galicia.

Th end of [[World War I]] resulted in several Ukrainian states, thus representing a milestone in the division of once-united Old Rus, the land of which was ultimately partitioned between the revived stata of [[Poland]] and the newly declared [[USSR]] through the 1921 Treaty of Riga that followed the Polish-Bolshevik War. The interwar period was then marked by the unsuccessful application of Polish independence hero Jozef Pilsudski's strategies aimed at Balkanizing the Soviet Union ("Prometheism") and ruling over the whole region ("[[Intermarium]]").
