Fedorivka (Ukrainian: Федорівка; Russian: Фёдоровка) is a village (a selo) in the Polohy Raion (district) of Zaporizhzhia Oblast in southern Ukraine.

History

Fedorivka was founded in 1779 as Burlatska. In 1822, it was renamed the village of Fedorivka. In the 19th century on the right bank of the river Gaichul was the state village of Fedorivka (Burlatske) and on the left bank the lordly village of Krute (Rezydentove). According to the 1859 census, Fedorivka had 285 courtyards, 2,327 inhabitants, an Orthodox church, a fair, and a bazaar. Krute had 25 yards, 235 inhabitants and had a significant portion of the Russian population.

In 1925, Fedorivka was renamed Vlasivka. At least 152 villagers died during the Holodomor. In 1938, Vlasivka was changed back to Fedorivka. From 7 October 1941 to 15 September 1943, during the Eastern Front Fedorivka was occupied by Nazi Germany. In 1960 it was renamed Chubarivka in honor of Vlas Chubar who was born in this village.

On 19 May 2016, Verkhovna Rada adopted decision to rename Chubarivka back to Fedorivka according to the law prohibiting names of Communist origin.^[2]
