'''Danylo Apostol''' (Ukrainian: Даніило Апостол) (14 December 1654-28 January 1734) was the [[hetman]] of left bank [[Ukraine]].
'''Danylo Apostol''' (Ukrainian: Даніило Апостол) (14 December 1654-28 January 1734) was the [[hetman]] of left bank [[Ukraine]].
He distinguished himself while serving as a colonel of the Myrhorod regiment from 1683-1727. He fought alongside the [[Russian Empire]] against the [[Sweden|Swedes]] and the [[Poland|Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth]] in the [[Great Northern War]]. Later, he joined sides with [[Ivan Mazepa]] against the [[Tsar]]. Then in 1708, he once again switched sides and rejoined [[Tsar]] [[Peter I]]. He took part in [[Russia|Russia's]] Prut (1711) and [[Persia|Persian]] (1722) campaigns. In 1727 he was elected [[hetman]] of Left-Bank [[Ukraine]], and he served until 1734 when he died.

In his first few years as the [[hetman]], Apostol accomplished much. He greatly improved the [[kozak]] administration and reformed the judicial system (decree of 1730). Apostol tried to defend the interests of [[Ukraine|Ukrainian]] merchants by modifying the commercial system that was imposed on [[Ukraine]] by Peter I that greatly favored the [[Russian]] merchants and the [[Russian]] state. It should be noted, however, that [[Russia]] was able to further its domination of [[Ukraine]] while it was under his rule.
