History
Administratively, since 1776 the area belonged to Khersonsky Uyezd, which was shuffled between different governorates of the Russian Empire: Yekaterinoslav Viceroyalty until 1795, Voznesensk Viceroyalty until 1796, Novorossiya Governorate until 1803, Kherson Governorate until 1920,[2] Nikolayev Governorate until 1921, and Odessa Governorate until 1923, when uyezds were abolished in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic; the governorates were divided into okruhas. In 1923, Bereznehuvate Raion of Kherson Okruha, with the administrative center in Bereznehuvate, was estabished.[3] In 1925, the governorates were abolished, and okruhas were directly subordinated to Ukrainian SSR. In 1930, okruhas were abolished. In 1935, Bereznehuvate Raion was transferred into Odessa Oblast.[4] On 22 September 1937, Mykolaiv Oblast was established on lands which previously belonged to Dnipropetrovsk and Odessa Oblasts, and Bereznehuvate Raion became part of newly created Mykolaiv Oblast.[5]
In March and April 1944, Bereznegovatoye–Snigirevka Offensive, a part of major Dnieper–Carpathian Offensive of the Soviet army during the last phase of World War II, took place around Bereznehuvate.
