The County

Soviet era name: Ivano-Frankovsk. Before 9 November 1962 : Stanislav.
António Martins, 10 July 1999

In my atlases and geographical dictionaries. Ivano Frankivsk was formerly Stanislav (Russian), Stanislawow (Polish), Stanislau (German).
Jarig Bakker, 11 July 1999

From http://uh.ms.km.ua/Time1/ivanofrank/endex.html (defunct):
In the Xth century the lands of modern Ivano-Frankivshchina belonged to the Kyivs'ka Rus', since 1199 - to the Galyts'ko-Volyns'ke principality, later - to the Russian province of Rich Pospolyta. After the three partitions of Poland at the end of the XVIIIth century, this territory became the part of the Austro-Hungary, in 1918-1919 it was a part of the West-Ukrainian National Republic. Since 1939 it is in the structure of Ukraine.
Dov Gutterman, 6 January 2000

Rich Pospolyta? .....Rzeczpospolita means "res publica" from Latin.
